Woah! Where did she hide???
Official Squatch Watchers
Yep 3 so farBABIES!
She didn’t hide I just lost count of the days
Yes ayam cemani are all black inside and out. 1 of 4 breeds. They are small. Males are roughly 4.5 - 6 lbs females are 3-4 lbs..
I have three AC hens and a rooster. Whatcha want to know?
They are really cool chickens. Nunny is right, they are more bantam-sized than standard sized. They are a little flighty and more on the wild side, but if you work with them they can be sweet. My one female, Raven, is pretty tame. My rooster is a big wuss, but he is a magnificent-looking creature! Show quality ones are completely black. Comb, wattles, feet, vent, inside the mouth. My roo has mulberry wattles so he is not show quality.
Their eggs are smallish and cream/tan. They lay fairly well but are not monster layers. More like yard candy. Mine get along with my bantams, EE, and Derpaucana, but they tend to stay to themselves.
They are glossy black and can have an iridescent green and/or purple sheen to them. Mine do, but it's hard to get a good photograph. My hubby is afraid of them cuz he says they look like big black crows, lol!
yes BLACK .. hey it's 85 here and I am having heat stroke lol
in good ones, guts bones and all is black
So their feathers are like my black Ameraucana the green sheen is good the purple is from eating too much cornI have three AC hens and a rooster. Whatcha want to know?

I was told this bye two breeders so I took the corn out of their diet and sure enough purple went away after molt who knew. I’m going to swap eggs with someone just wanted to know something about them

I never heard that about the purple/corn thing! The people to ask are Ravyn and Pyxis on the Cemani thread, they are the Cemani experts.
They are really freaking cool birds, for sure. Someday I'm going to let them hatch out some eggs. Two of my females go broody--not as much as the Silkies, but it can be a pain in the butt if you don't want broodies. They really are unique, gamey, wild-looking jungle birds. But they are quite gentle and sweet. I adore mine.
