Meet my Jersey Giant and learn about the breed 

I have 4 jersey giants girls 5 rhode island red girls 3 buff orpington hens and 1 freedom ranger rooster..i love all their personalities. They are all so wonderful and sweet.

Thank you! I definitely think I need some jersey giants. She is so pretty and just seems so chill.

I absolutely adored mine, "Kali" She was a stroller/house chicken. City people thought she was a rooster due to her size (14 lb) but she laid the biggest eggs I've ever seen. She did a lot of travelling and was VERY social. The only chicken many of the kids who petted her have ever seen. Once even laid an egg on cue.....several men were arguing that she was a rooster, and she went into the posture....out pops a huge egg. They were stunned into silence. End of argument. A nice older middle eastern man leaned in to me to whisper "It is a woman." I nodded. Somene actually had experience. LOL

She is on my list ❤

thank you so much for such descriptive breakdowns on your birds. had no idea jersey giants were so docile & easy to manage. can't wait til you do orpingtons & the Wyandottes

Hi Opal! You got a great shot of her blue toned feathers. She is gorgeous.

Recently got a few Brahma chicks. I'm very excited to see them grow up and their personalities.

Love this new series….. what breeds are you looking to get next?

Love the information...ive been researching breeds to get for my roosters and I was looking on the bigger size because the roosters are pretty big and "enthusiastic" if you know what I mean lol

Great, informative visit. Thank you, Opal! You are adorable ❤

Opal is beautiful! I miss having chickens 😢. We have moved to a gated community and are not allowed to have them. Maybe I could have a “service chicken “ ! Nice video. Thank you for sharing!

I have about 60 of them and about 200 in the incubator , I've watched a couple of my by big massive roos beat the crap out of hawks that attacked the hens ,they're way bigger than the hawks are , 😂lol.

6:02 If you want to jump right to the Jersey Giant beauty of a chicken, starts here. 🥰😍❤️

I so want some. ❤

My lady and I just ordered 20 Jersey Giants. They'll be here on March 27th.

6:30 the other black chicken almost looks identical to Opal…. Hard to tell the difference 😂

Are predators bad where you live? What precautions do you take? I just lost my beloved hen, Clicker. Before she was taken on May 24, she had laid for 33 days in a row. I miss her so much!

How do they tolerate hot summers? It's in the high 90's and low 100's today in Arkansas

Opal looks and breed sounds like my blue cuckoo marans. "Cuckoo" not into snuggling as such. I have my Lavender Orpington as my momma's girl. Blanche was the most skittish since her 2nd day. She now likes to "bow up" on her sister, Mimi the Tuxedo Cat!!

Are these the biggest? Or would that be Bramah chickens?

Any info on adding peep or peeps to an existing 3 hen flock??

I have a sussex, a wyandott, 2 rhode island reds, a bantam , millie fluer d'uccle. Just bought 4 silkies, an easter egger, 2 orphingtons , a maran and a jersey giant. Im wondering if i should buy another j giant or if one will be happy in my flock . All pullets except the silkies. Thinking 3 silkies are roos. Too soon to tell but 3 are taller. Opal seems happy. Wanting your opinion. Ive looked it up but you are the only one who just has one. Have had them a week and the jersey is already trying to get out of the tub. Took her out and she was happy to be held. Shes is close in size to the orphingtons but twice the size of the maran and e egger . The silkies are 3 weeks and close to her size. I got them to be family to my little bantam. She was bought with 2 mallard ducks that had 21 babies last year. They flew south in the fall and poor millie was left behind. I find her alone too often and hope she will mother the silkies. Thank you

I'm from Pakistan and my grandma also has these 2 in Black & 2 In Brown

My jersey giant is named Bertha and is currently sitting on a nest of eggs.

Loved seeing Ms. Opal! I think I prefer the larger chickens too. They seem hardier and less fragile for some reason.
