I got five black australorp hens last year and they are the greatest chickens I've ever had! They were not loud at all and were very loving and affectionate. They are very curious and love to explore other people's yards, but that is the only bad thing! When I would pick them up to hold them, they would put their head on my shoulder to give me a hug
and they would hop onto my lap if I had a treat for them. Unfortunately, three of them were killed about a month ago
Everyone should get some australorps just because of their wonderful personalities.
