Chicken Breed Focus - Ayam Cemani

Thanks. Yours look great too! What exactly is considered leakage? Is that when you can see red in the comb? Or different color feathers?

This is a Cemani (couldn't find my pic of leakage on the one I culled) but this is an example of leakage...

I am raising my first batch of Ayam cemani chickens. They are now 9 weeks old and looking good.

They are very active and fast growers compared to my lavender orpingtons. They are skittish but also very curious. It's looking like I ended up with 2 cockerels and 4 pullets. I look forward to when they start laying!

Absolutely gorgeous! Where did you get yours from?

No problem!

I think my leaky boy pic is on my old SD card, I just switched to a new one and only moved a couple albums over... :/

I finally have 2 eggs!!!!!!!! My girls were slacking there for a few months! So I have decided which boys I need to sell. One had too much red in his wattles and one does not have a very good type of comb. :/ And I have a young cockerel about 11 weeks old he looks great but I'm afraid he is also going to be too red in the wattles!

@RavynFallen How are you doing??? I miss being on here with you all!

Ok! Yes I have one rooster that came out like that. I thought something was just wro with his feathers!

My husband gave them to me as a gift. I think he ordered them from Feather lover farms.
