Guess a 4 day old chick breed please?

[651789]

Hello BYC. So I bought ayam cemani eggs from countryegghatchery. This chick hatched along with the Ayams. All are black except for this little guy. I’m not getting any replies from the seller so therefore I need help of the breed if possible. Maybe it’s too young to tell? The site also sells orust, silver death layer, breese, Icelandic, buff brama, splash silkies, and lavender Americauna. Can it also be an ayam mix? Thanks for the help.

It doesn't match any of the other breeds carried. Likely just a poor quality Ayam Cemani or Ayam Cemani mix. It does look to be fibro at least!

That’s also what it seems to me, a mix. But I’m glad to hear it from someone else. Thank you. I’ll post pics when he/she gets older.

What does fibro mean?

Sometimes it can be normal for black skinned breeds to hatch with toes of a different color. The fibromelanosis will usually fill it in as they grow. Happens with Silkies, occasionally.

White in the juvenile plumage of black colored birds are normal too. It gets molted out when they replace it with adult plumage.

What does fibro mean?

Fibromelanosis.

It means the black skin, meat, bones, etc.
