The first to be considered the tallest chicken breed is known as the Malay. The rooster of this breed grows up to 3 feet. (90cm). This breed is very rare and has been classified as a critical species in its conservation status. The Malay is an ancient breed whose origins can be traced back to Southeast Asia.
