Thanks all!!!- I hesitated to list the black chicken as a "6,000.00" Ayam cemani.....or are they not as expensive nowadays?

Hello all!

I have a client who is mixing a number of breeds of chickens but doesn't know all of them. I too don't know all of them if anyone could assist with i.d. of these 3, would be most appreciative!!!

Third one is definitely without a doubt an Ayam Cemani.

The lady i got Ayam Cemani eggs from was selling them for 5 dollars a egg 10 a chick. And they originally paid 50 per chick from a guy who imported his lineage. And ive never heard of them selling for 6000. I heard a pair sell for 500.

Sure it isn't a Svart Hona?

I believe I once heard an ayam cemani breeder say that all the birds that came out of Indonesia were mixed with Svart Hona, because they were not able to adapt on their own

They're becoming a lot more popular stateside. Here people sell them for $15-$50 each depending on the age, sex, and quality.
