Ayam Cemani cross breeding

[AprilsAcres]

hello, anyone have experience about AC cross hens if they are better egg layers than pure AC females? per info found they AC hen lays 80 eggs only per year. So I wonder if they are mixed with other regular better layer the offspring should have more eggs.
any experience with it?

My AC laid a lot more than that. All winter, took a few week slow down and back at it. They’ve laid at minimum 90 eggs each in five months.

I know late to the party but on the cemi association site it says when crossing cemi chickens to know if you have a true double black gene bird all the offspring will have black beaks, legs, waddles, and combs. Takes couple dozen chicks to know 100%, if any out of that number of chicks has pink, yellow, white in those areas then your cemi is a single black gene bird. Like how you see cemi with mulberry coloring. Those are single gene and usually culled off.

I bought a bunch of mixed eggs for hatching. I always love the randomness. The seller said she put a pure breed Ayam Cemani in as I stated I liked them. This little chick hatched out completely black, I couldn't believe it! But as it grew, it is clearly a mix of something else too (which I'm not bothered about if I'm honest).

It's got white leakage, almost like a reverse splash, and has a quiff of feathers on its head too It has a black beak, comb, wattles, eyes, legs and feet and nails. Just the quiff, shape of comb and many white splashes are throwing me 'mixed' vibes!

I saw past posts about crossing a male AC with various hens.

I would like to know the outcomes of F-1 and F-2 as far as meat-skin-feathers-legs-comb-tongue colours?

I did a batch of eggs from heritage breed hens consisting of welsumer, black sexlink, buff orp, rir, asalop, olive egger, blue egg layer EE, red leghorn, bantam hens. The 2 roos running with them are a blue egger americauna and a solid black cemi.

Definitely can tell who is dad to who when they hatched. Here is list of chicks and the egg colors they hatched from.

2 solid fibro black with copper around eyes chicks. 1 from a bantam white egg and 1 from a huge white egg.

1 solid fibro black chick from a huge white egg.

2 silver/blue fibro chicks. 1 from brown egg and 1 from tan egg. Both have mixed blk/light colored legs and skin with black beaks and comb.

1 solid black fibro chick from blue egg, with just middle toe nail on each foot white.

1 solid black fibro chick from tan egg with light skin on undersides of feet pads.
