    Australorp? Pullet?

    Looking for some opinions. This chick is 22 weeks and was sold to me as a black copper maran but I've always thought they were probably an Australorp? The other thing is that this one is loud as hell all day long and mounts the other girls. We have two of whatever this breed is and they're the...

    Pictures of your girls right before they started laying!

    Color Genetics: Welsummer/ Easter Eggers

    Australorp chicks 5 weeks

    Ok that's very helpful, thank you! Is it also fairly common for BA's tail feathers to vary like this? One's is so long and erect while the others is very short and bushy. That's what originally threw me off.

    Australorp chicks 5 weeks

    Australorp chicks 5 weeks

    I have two 5 week old australorps. They seem to be developing much differently so I tried to get some pics of them next to each other. Any insight on gender would be so helpful! Thanks!
