Wrather Farms

Wrather Farms is a small-scale breeder of Ayam Cemani chickens in Columbia, Tennessee, Maury County in Middle Tennessee near Nashville. Gina Wrather has raised poultry for over a decade, maintains membership in regional poultry associations, and works with a local veterinarian to ensure regular health screenings. Birds are pasture-raised on grassy paddocks with daily access to a wooded run, and they receive a balanced feed regimen supplemented with fresh produce.

Socialization begins in the brooder with gentle handling and continues through pecking parties and group foraging, helping to foster calm and confident adults. The farm emphasizes preservation of this rare breed’s distinctive glossy black plumage and retains a small nucleus of foundation bloodlines for future generations. Eggs are collected twice daily and shell quality is monitored, while hatching stock is selected based on fertility, temperament, and adherence to breed standards. Many buyers appreciate the transparent communication about lineage and husbandry methods.
