Malay Game are a fierce, proud bird that stands very tall. It is the tallest breed of chicken and may stand over 90 cm high. Subsequently, they require a lot of space and enjoy being outdoors. They are sensitive to cold temperatures due to its short, sparse feathering. A good Malay will have three distinct arches to its profile which are formed by the curves of the neck, back and tail.
