THE MYSTERIOUS CHICKEN(AYAM CEMANI): RARE POULTRY BREED

Ayam Cemani is an uncommon and relatively modern breed of chicken from Indonesia. It i s the result of a genetic mutation that produces a completely black bird, from beak to bone. Because of their color and supposed magical properties, they can fetch up to $4,000 each .  They have a dominant gene that causes hyperpigmentation (fibromelanosis), making the chicken entirely black, including feathers, beak, and internal organs.
