BBC Farm

BBC Farm, ayam cemani in Stillwater, PA, Columbia County and the Susquehanna Valley near Bloomsburg. Its owner, Danielle Ruckle, has over a decade of experience in backyard poultry and maintains breeder club memberships along with routine health screenings for each flock.

Birds are raised free range on pasture with access to coop shelter and daily supervised foraging to encourage natural behaviors and gentle handling. The farm’s history of sustainable practices extends to rotational grazing of cover crops, which supports soil health and diverse forage for the flock. Visitors often note the calm disposition and deep black plumage of ayam cemani, a result of thoughtful breeding choices and attentive daily care. Every chick begins life in a well lit brooder with temperature control and routine health checks before joining the flock outdoors. Guidance on feed choices and simple coop design supports healthy development and smooth transitions at each growth stage.
