Great suggestion! And FWIW, it is such a good thread, so we included it in each of the Halloween photo contests!

What breeds did you use for this awesome guy? I love the many colors and subtleness (new word but makes sense) of it all.

I've been working on developing my own breed for a few years now, but the first chicks were a mix of Australorp and Jersey Giant. Since then I've also mixed in Buff Orpington.
Turns out adding RIR creates a very bright orange chicken, as my other roo Howard demonstrates here:

Dang! That's a good Ayam Cemani!! I see no leakage anywhere! Are you in a position to breed him? Where did you get him from?

Mr. Speck was hatched from Foxfire Poultry potluck eggs. He and his buddy will be fathering a bunch of Cemanis in spring. Have 2 hens and 2 pullets currently.
