A grown-up cock weighs between 2.5 and 3.0 kg. The red eyes give an impression of ardour. It is precisely toothed. Behind the comb there is a tassel of thin tufts of feathers, sometimes it consists of only a few longer feathers. Ears are white and very small.
Dewlaps are short to medium size and intensively red.
The neck is medium long, straight, with rich feathers of brown-red color that become splendor black on the chest. The chest is well round off, wide, a bit embossed and deep. The body seems stocky due to the crammed belly and back. The back slightly inclines towards the tail, and it is long and wide. The cock's shoulders, the back and the saddle are dark red, while wings, that are close on the body, are black with brown external rim.
