And so-my painstaking hobby began. I got two eggs to hatch. I ordered six more eggs-I got one more egg to hatch and then I ordered 3 one day old chicks for $100.00 each. I lost one of the chicks, but the other five grew up, three were hens, two were roosters-and one rooster was black, but had a lot of gold and red in him- but I had three hens and one rooster that were Ayam Cemani’s! They were not great Ayam Cemani’s-the rooster had a touch of red in his crest-I knew that Ayam Cemani’s are supposed to be all black. But it was a start, and I was happy!
