[/I]I purchased two what are suppose to be black Australorps bur the smaller one has breast feathers edged with copper color and feet with kind of dark with lot of yellow . I'll try to get pic of it this weekend. Can they have that coloring on them? The other one has black feet .:rolleyes::rolleyes:
 
Do they look like this? This is what my Australorp looked like as a baby. She had pink feet, but black legs.





But now all of her feet and legs are black.

Or do they look like this? This is my Black sex link.

A true Black Australorp should have no coloring other than black when they are feathering out. If what you're referring to is on a baby chick, that's another story. How old are your chickens? Pics, please! I raise Black Australorps, I'd be interested to see them!

A Black sex link is a mix between a Rhode Island red rooster and a Barred Plymouth rock hen. Sex linked just means that they are sex able by color at day one.
