Higo Chabo are very rare ; even in Japan. Higo Chabo are bred in the South of Japan (Kyushu Island - around Kumamoto).
Higo Chabo soon have the big comb and wattles. You can immediately see the difference with normal Chabo.
The are two types of Higo Chabo : Taikan Chabo and Daruma Chabo. Taikan Chabo have the normal Chabo tail. Daruma Chabo have a short tail called "Chokio". Taikan Chabo excists in black-tailed white and in white. Daruma Chabo excists in black and in white.
