The Thai Game is a breed of hard feather chicken, originating in Thailand, and known in Thai as ไก่ชน. Since 2009 they have been recognised by the British Poultry Standards. They are described as of Malayoid type, with similarities to Shamo but with a lighter build and higher positioned tail as the most obvious differences. Any colour is accepted,[1] but red black is the most common.[2]
