The white ones are not Cemani

Normal but some will stay all black. But normal

Cemani are not white feathered with black skin

I have a question about mulberry in a roosters comb and wattles. As mine has matured past a year old, I've noticed his wattles getting mulberry. Has anyone else experienced this?

Yes, and it's a sign of incomplete hyperpigmentation.

Forgive me.. was that an answer to my post? Should I continue to use him as a breeder or try to get a better rooster? I really like his type.

Yes, so I have been told in an earlier post on this thread. Brandy's were identical to mine. I believe they are recessive white sports, but call them what you want. They all have slate blue legs and purplish to mulberry combs/wattles. They have black to bluish skin. Every chick I hatch out is breeding true. They all hatch out silver to dark gray but then they feather out white.

Here is a picture of my breeding pair and another picture of a couple juveniles in with some blacks.



Here is a picture of the 2 roosters that Brandy had.


Here are a couple of my roosters.


They must favor males because last year I got a total of 6 chicks (1 hen and 5 roosters). Brandy got 2 roosters. Like I said, they breed true and out of a couple dozen I have hatched so far, I have never gotten any 'Frankenstein' colors or markings.

If u don't have any other rooster then yes then replace him

Also to add. Something was going on environmentally bc most of my birds were males even with the pheasants. And the same with most of the people I know that breed birds.

What in the world makes you think Cemani throw white "sports". More likely mixed fibro

Whatever their breeding, they don't meet any Ayam Cemani SOP or proposed SOP. Interesting, but like my Blue Spitzhauben, a bird for fun and not for breeding to standard.
