Black skinned meat chickens

[Buck Creek Chickens]

do you have a population of Hmong in your area? I have a fellow that comes by who has black skined meat chickens that are not silkie, they are hard to get but if you can you will have a way to sell your culls. also no I do not have them, I have a different set of chickens from him.

Sumatras are said to have some sort of odd black-skin gene in them also (I could be wrong too) but they actually only have black faces. The rest of them is normal, yellow skin.

This is an old thread but are you still working on a BS chicken project? How is it comming along? Any pics? I am working on one too and was interested in your results.

Actually I have been breeding Ayam Cemani. I can't cull day old chicks. So I seem to have built up quite a large flock of cull Ayam Cemani. What kind of market would there be for black skin chickens for meat birds?

I don't know what market there would be FM meet birds but they do sell them in asain markets. I am more interested in having large fowl black skin birds. The ones I am making are a compatable naked neck and normal so I can "standardize" both together. I am looking for a cemani cull roo to add any other FM genes that the ones I have now might not have. I will be driving through Maryland on monday night as I am in Mass right now but it might be to late at night. What do you want for a cull roo.
Thanks,
Rob
