The Brugse Vechter, French: Combattant de Bruges, is an endangered Belgian breed of gamecock.

It dates from the early nineteenth century, and was bred specifically for cock-fighting.

It named for its area of origin, that of the city of Bruges (Brugge), in West Flanders in the north-east of Belgium.

It originated in western Flanders in the early years of the nineteenth century, and was formerly common throughout Belgium.

Cock-fighting is against the law in Belgium, and practitioners of the sport usually travel to northern France.

Hens lay about 150 cream-coloured eggs per year, with a weight of 65–75 g.[1]: 56  They are not good sitters.
