The term “gamefowl” indicates that these birds are a little wilder than the average chicken. Whereas breeds such as the Broiler, have mostly forgotten anything about surviving. The Gamefowl is an exceptional brooder and hunter.

If you’re searching for a competent, confident of prevailing, and clever fowl that can take good care of its own, this stunning chicken may be the perfect addition to your backyard chickens. Additionally, numerous breeders are repurposing the breed as attractive display or ornamental birds.

Cockfighting is a blood sport due in some part to the physical trauma the cocks inflict on each other. This is sometimes increased by attaching metal spurs to the cocks’ natural spurs. While not all fights are to the death, the cocks may endure significant physical trauma. In some areas around the world, cockfighting is still practiced as a mainstream event. In some countries, it is regulated by law, or forbidden outright.

A cockfight is a blood sport, held in a ring called a cockpit. The history of raising fowl for fighting goes back 6,000 years. The first documented use of the word gamecock, denoting use of the cock as to a “game”, a sport, pastime, or entertainment.

The combatants, referred to as gamecocks (not to be confused with game birds), are specially bred and conditioned for increased stamina and strength. Male and female chickens of such a breed are referred to as game fowl. Cocks possess congenital aggression toward all males of the same species. Wagers are often made on the outcome of the match.

Two owners place their gamecock in the cockpit. The cocks fight until ultimately one of them dies or is critically injured. Historically, this was in a cockpit, which is a term used to mean a place of entertainment or frenzied activity.
