@junebuggena And that's where I start to get lost: "They aren't making much money off of it"
When you have a chick that costs $100 - and say you have 10 hens shooting them out - call it 50 chicks a year.
That's 500 x $100 = $50,000 a year from 10 hens (I know this is assuming that nothing is going wrong --- ) But, someone is going to have to explain to me where there is a huge hole in what I'm not seeing.....
The only thing that I've found about the breed I took an interest in (Ayam Cemani's) is that it seems other breeders cull 75% of their chicks, ETC.
