I've got 11 chicks that are about to hatch on Wednesday. I also have two silkies, one male and female, who cannot find a place in the current flock. They're sweet, but the australorp pullets, which are not that much bigger, are really bossy and love to bully them around.
In another area, 14...
I have other australorps, but I've never had a rooster. He's suppose to be younger then my girls, yet he has nearly 4 pounds on him. His feet are yellow and his eyes have a yellow ring in them.
The woman I got her from insisted it's an australorp, but i'm still not convinced.
I acquired 6 chickens that have a white spot on the tip of one feather on each wing. All of them have it, and now at 3 months they're solid black with green and still have a white spot.
My question is, for the breed is that normal?
I really dislike the breed. Outside of color eggs, they're not fun to be around. I've had about 10 different eggers and they all had horrible personalities, they were not even sweet. So I ate them.

My Cochin bantam just started going broody and I'm thinking of getting her a saddle. She is getting covered much too often it seems, just look at her back!

Hello there.
Recently I built a coop and purchased some chicks at 2 weeks old. I bought 5 from a local breeder for about $25. I was willing to go 5 a pop because I wanted australorps. However, within 24 hours 4 of the 5 chickens started showing respiotory issues i.e. sneezing, coughing, and...
Pictures to come soon.
With the recent amount of post, I figured some positivity is in order. To start with, I'm a new and happy owner for 6 chicks, of different age.
3 austrolorps at around 2-3 weeks. 1 polish newborn, 1 week. 2 Plymouths, one is a companion age for the polish, and the...
