Ayam Cemani is a rare breed of chicken that is completely black, including its organs, muscles, and bones. This chicken originates in Indonesia, where many locals keep the bird as a treasured pet. Cemani, pronounced che-MA-ni in Indonesian and seh-MA-ni by many English speakers, comes from Sanskrit and means “jet black.” As a result of a condition called fibromelanosis, Cemani chickens have 10 times as much melanin as most chicken breeds. While the price varies, a high-quality Ayam Cemani can sell for over $6,000, and a single egg can fetch as much as $16. But what makes these chickens so special? And why are they so expensive? • For more about Ayam Cemani: www.sageacresfarm.com • 01:14 – Genetic mutation • 02:27 – Importing Ayam Cemani chickens • 03:09 – Clientele • 04:15– Javanese culture + beliefs • 04:49 – Healing with Tembean egg • 06:19 – Washing chickens • 06:42 – Keeping the chickens healthy • 07:12 – Feeding supplements • 09:00 – Ayam Cemani eggs • 10:45 – Price factors • MORE SO EXPENSIVE VIDEOS: • 12 Jobs That Take A Lifetime To Master | So Expensive | Insider Business • • 12 Jobs That Take A Lifetime To Maste... • Why Patan Patola Saris Are So Expensive | So Expensive | Insider Business • • Why Patan Patola Saris Are So Expensi... • 10 Of The World’s Priciest Arts And Art Supplies | So Expensive | Insider Business • • 10 Of The World’s Priciest Arts And A... • ------------------------------------------------------ • #ayamcemani #chickens #soexpensive #insiderbusiness • Business Insider tells you all you need to know about business, finance, tech, retail, and more. • Visit our homepage for the top stories of the day: https://www.businessinsider.com • Insider Business on Facebook: / businessinsider • Insider Business on Instagram: / insiderbusiness • Insider Business on Twitter: / businessinsider • Insider Business on Snapchat: / 5319643143 • Insider Business on TikTok: / businessinsider
