Pros: Great layers

One of my favorite breeds, great for 1st time chicken owners. They are hearty birds, good in a flock, great layers, develops fast, nice birds that love to follow you around and are sweet and tame. They are really pretty in a subdued way.

I really love this breed. Lost our first Astralorp last winter. Bought two chicks this spring, They layed their first egg September 1st. We love to watch them, it's therapy for us.
We too love our Australorp and she's the friendliest between the Ameraucana and the Orpington. She will hop on my lap to get her treats.
