Most Expensive Breeds

[TheJournalist]

Hello, I have a few questions regarding the most expensive breeds. I'm trying to get into raising and selling. What are the most expensive breeds? I know the Ayam Cemani is one, however I don't know how hard it would be to get one. I'm more interested in chickens that look like gamecocks, such as, Cubalaya, American Game, Old English Game, Malay, Aseel, etc.

If you're looking to try this as a money making endeavor, I'd advise against it. I raise ayam cemanis, and I have yet to make profit. That's because with good breeding practices, you are culling most of the chicks, keeping back the best ones for yourself, culling the ones that shouldn't breed, etc. Not a lot of money to make there when you do that.

Not sure if the game breeders have more luck. There's a thread here on BYC called Show off your American Gamefowl that's fairly active, you might ask them what they think. The thread is here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/th...rican-gamefowl.613455/page-2467#post-18715896
