I got Plymouth Rock chickens from the store and I’m sure they made a mistake. I’m convinced these chickens are ayam cemani, but I know there are more breeds fitting my chickens, and I’m curious to know what breed they are.
They are:
They have some small red impurities on some feathers, but she’s like 99.5% black. (The sun makes her look blue). They are quite adorable, and I think their black has helped them blend in to avoid avian predators.
The only question I have is why their feathers are rounded and not as ”thready” as the photos online :/
Any guesses?
They are:
- All black, meat, blood is darker, and comb/wattles is black
- Feathers have a beetle green shine
- Tan/light brown eggs, laid about every 1.5 days
- They are friendly, and quite large.
- They don’t seem to stop laying eggs throughout the year.
