Ayam Cemani aren't that rare! I mean, yes, they're sorta rare, still, but they are findable for purchase in the USA. I have a lovely Cemani hen; just need a gentleman friend for her, LOL!

Even animals you think you know occasionally give us surprises, such as being born with unusual coloring or shapes.
At Bright Side, we want to share some of the rarest animals on Earth. Don’t forget to check out our bonus at the end that shows unusual lizards who seem to jump right from a fairy tale.
