What Makes a Chicken a “Zombie”?

The Zombie Chicken is a unique hybrid, born from the unlikely pairing of the exotic Ayam Cemani and the dependable White Leghorn. The result? A bird that combines the eerie beauty of the Cemani with the powerhouse productivity of the Leghorn.

Their name might suggest the undead, but these birds are bursting with life—and they deliver 5–6 large, tinted eggs per week. That’s egg-laying on overdrive!

Hardy and Low-Maintenance

Whether you live in the frosty north or the sweltering south, Zombie Chickens adapt with ease. They’re hardy in all climates, making them a great choice for first-time chicken keepers and seasoned pros alike. Plus, their low-maintenance care needs make them an ideal addition to any coop.

Surprisingly Social

With their dark, mysterious looks, you might expect these birds to be a little standoffish. But Zombie Chickens are actually quite friendly and curious. They enjoy mingling with their flock mates, hanging out with their humans, and exploring the yard with enthusiasm.

If you’re looking to add some visual flair to your flock without sacrificing productivity or personality, the Zombie Chicken is a no-brainer (yes, we said it). They’re eye-catching, efficient, and full of charm—a true trifecta for chicken lovers.
