That was my thought as well. I understood it to be that it could cause respiratory issues for those that survive

That actually makes sense...Someone said they filed the sides of their dark eggs down with an memory board, but I was under the impression doing that would cause long term damage to the growing chick

I haven't found a real reason online either Lmao

I actually just looked up more info on this and a lot of people had the same issue hatching darker eggs...I'm now curious if this is whybi really had more difficulty hatching my Penedesenca. The breeder kept telling me it was temperature related, but everything was correct, even with a separate...

I'm not incubating at all at this point, but thank you

Beautiful coloring though, even if he isn't in tge plans 😊

Thank you. It could be either, but I'll stick to calling it a shade of black 😊

So far, my Black Penedesenca plan has failed. The breeder I bought them from on here either has a very flawed line or he's mixing breeds/varieties. Most did not survive to hatch day on both incubation periods, the first two that survived were weak from the beginning and randomly died. The second...

Very pretty on both 😊

What I just read says they're larger than Ayam Cemani...I hadn't even heard of them, but it looks next to impossible to get ahold of some... I also read that part of the reason for their brink of extinction, as it was put, is their personality...They are not an overly friendly breed, though...

Some updated pictures of my younger ones

I did. The other "plus" about them is the black meat. They're not a normal breed and even if they were, people pay a fortune for dog or cat breeds that don't do anything special...There's no real difference in that aspect

Love the name! 😊

That's so awesome!

While he is quite stunning, I, personally, am not big on the white...My Black Penedesenca will look very similar when they're old enough, but it's their egg color I want Lol

Someday, I hope to be able to get a Blue Bay Shepherd...If you look them up, you'll see why Lol

No, there is no chicken that lays black eggs

That is a cross I may end up needing in my flock Lol I've never cared for the silkies myself, but I just love the way she looks!

Beautiful! Is she a mix? I've never seen one that stunning 💖

Mine are the same way...One of my roos started getting aggressive, to me, not the others, so he became food...I was told mine were pure AC, but from what I've seen of their meat, it should have been very dark...His wasn't at all. It was different than a "regular" chicken, but definitely not black
