I wanted a breed that would go broody a lot, and I sure got some with these Australorps. Out if my 24 hens, 12 of them are either sitting on eggs, or taking care of babies.
We have about 30 adult black australorps hens and 2 roosters. We also have about 70 young ones, most will be butchered for meat, but some will be allowed to live for laying. We also have geese, ducks, and turkey not in the video.
