I thought that the Indio Gigante is similar to Ayam Pelung in size. I had two Pelung rosters that tall almost one meters. Actually , I am not very sure the tall of my chicken. I read some literature that Ayam pelung tall is less than a meter. Finding one meter tall must be hard work.
I suspected There is a pelung that reach one meter. In the Indonesian agriculture ministry said that the tall of the chicken is 40-50 cm or half of the Indio Gigante. The Chicken is not equivalent competitor for The Giant.
I ask chat ai , what chicken breed that is equivalent counterpart of Indio Gigante. Unfortunately these chickens are not better Ayam Pelung. The other competitor weigh 5-6 in average, meaning the weigh is not different to Ayam Pelung.
One of competitor is Jersey Giant , that's is from Jersey United States. As the Giant , it weighs up to 6 kilogram . The tall is not tall as the Indio. Perhaps this is the second rank of size Chicken. .Jersey tall is about 55-66 cm or 22-26 inch. the Jersey Gianyis taller than Ayam Pelung but shorter than Indio Gigante.
There is also Brahma. I have write about the chicken in my previous post. Though the name of the Chicken sounds India, the chicken originated from United States. The full feathered Chicken from the feet and legs to the head. The thick feather cover it's body. It is tall about the chicken. This chicken is meat purpose, meaning the chicken for table
Other competitor is Cornish. The chicken is originated in English. it weighs to five kilogram. The Cornish is a parent stock or Broiler Chicken. It famous by its wide broad breast.
Don't forget the Malay that also the parent of Indio Gigante. Though not tall as the Indio but the chicken descent the upright posture to the Indio. This chicken looks like fighter.
