Chicken Breed Focus - Ayam Cemani

Quote: You'd get way better value for money with hatching eggs, less hassle too.

Hmm, I suppose I should hop over to Holland for a visit some time?

I actually lived there in '99-2000 for a my "gap year". I stayed about 20km from Amsterdam. At the moment my starter breeds list is up to 3 already, but I will keep the Cemani in mind for future.

So here are the one week old shots of my little AC chicks I hatched from Pyxis eggs!

So if ayam cemani don't lay black eggs do any chickens do?

 

[cafrhe]

No chickens lay black eggs. A duck does though...Cayuga?

Nice looking chicks, Rossfam!

Hi Again,

I am from The Netherlands - Europe

We can't easy ship birds over to USA or CAD. That cost alot of money, more then i will have in 2 months work.

That's why we are able to receive and sending hatching eggs.also  with rules of course.

But sometimes it is possible to fly over hatching eggs by person ;-)

This year there will be a breeder coming up in the USA, that will receive hatching eggs from my birds.

 

Just out of curiosity, what's the legality of this? If you pick them up in person and fly them back to your country do you have to do a lot of paperwork because you're importing them and plan to hatch them? I might be in Europe this summer and if it's actually legal to just pick eggs up and take them back with me I'd do it in a heartbeat to get some nice new genetics for my flock. I have a feeling it isn't that simple, though

That would be awesome if you could some how make that work! There are only four breeders here in the u.s that ship this breed, and there is none that actually have blood ties to Europes excellent Ayam Cemanis. I think I'm going to do a little research real quick to help you out. Be right back.

Ok here's something I found, I copied it and I'm not sure it will come out ok.
