We have 2 BJG - one of each male & female. They are 18 weeks old. We have 5 other breeds of regular size chickens - all the same age as the BJG.
Of course the BJGs are larger than the others, although our Black Australorps are larger too, but not as big as the BJG.
My Question is: when do the BJG reach full size?
Below are some pictures of them. You can see the BJG male is larger than the BJG female. Also, The BA male is large, but the BJG Male is larger than the BA. The BJG does not seem to have hit puberty yet...he is pretty docile. Also, the BJG female has not a spec of red on her, so I am thinking it will be quite awhile till we see eggs.
