Black chicken. Ayam cemani

Inspired by my trip to my friend’s no kill perma culture farm.
Sketch no 1446 in my moleskine sketchbook is of Benjamin and Barbara the black rooster and chicken šŸ“
There were so many farm animals running around on the farm and vegetables growing. I’ve never been on a no kill farm before.

TheĀ Ayam CemaniĀ is an uncommon breed ofĀ chickenĀ fromĀ Indonesia. They have a dominant gene that causesĀ hyperpigmentationĀ (fibromelanosis), making the chicken mostly black, includingĀ feathers,Ā beak, and internal organs’ ~ Wikipedia
