Black Chicken is not Black Color

 

I have some nice black chicken. MY hen was that i remember is the black chicken from our neighbor. My neighbour gave a pullet to whoever help him in his party. in underdeveloped country, we also help our neighbour to cook at neighbor’s party for celebrate something.

I raise the hen for some month. I wash the chicken with detergent. My mother was so sorry. but i saw some green and purple colour that sometimes appear. the black chicken feathers are known to have reflection of purple and green in the sun

i can say that is no pure black color chicken because they also reflect the green or purple color. even cemani chicken. the color actually is not black or ebony but you can still see the purple color and green color at the neck, saddle, wing and the tail feather. Mostly the male also shows the color. it makes the chicken look beautiful

it is the characteristics of the fowl feather. You can also see the purple and green at the pigeon neck. the male usually lighter than the female. it is identity of the male pigeon.

We can also saw the purple and the green. the phenomena is iridescent, when a colour change the angle.
