The Brahma is a large breed of chicken developed in the United States from very large birds imported from the Chinese port of Shanghai. The Brahma was the principal meat breed in the US from the 1850s until about 1930.

How long do they take to grow? I hear it's around 12 weeks or so for the modern breeds to grow to slaughter size
