Exotic & Valuable Lamborghini chicks (Ayam Cemani)
Description
Taking orders for spring, 2024
(Owing to high demand and difficulty hatching, this ad had to be adjusted. For those who did not hear back, read below and reach out again if still interested. First come, first served! They are not sexed.).
The most expensive chicken in the world! The Ayam Cemani is a rare breed of chicken from Indonesia. They have a dominant gene that causes hyperpigmentation (fibromelanosis), making the chicken black, to the bone - including feathers, beak, and internal organs.
They say these are the Lamborghini of chickens, they are rare, beautiful, mysterious and were actually regarded as a sacred bird in Java where they originate from.
These beautifully inky black chickens have black feathers, wattles, eyes, comb, beak and legs. They hold themselves in such a way that a person can actually become quite mesmerized by this really unique bird.
Other very unique things about this chicken breed are that it is not only its outer appearance that is completely black! Its meat, organs, skin and even its bones are black. The only thing that is not truly black (although it is very dark) is its blood. As such it was also a very popular bird for various rituals.
Today this breed is very rare and if you can get them there is usually a waiting list for up to a year in advance for them. They can also fetch a price of $2500 each, that is $5000 for a pair of them!
$55/chick. This is much cheaper than what we bought them for.
Price not negotiable. Will hold on a first-come first-served. Pickup is in Halifax (near Armdale rotary)
High quality pure-bred (you get what you pay for)
