Thanks, SpeckledHen! I am so glad that everyone has been able to confirm my suspicions. I also have done alot more searching inside of BYC with some better keywords and really do think that the guys were wrong about my Black pullet. She definitely matches the description of the Australorp and...

Perhaps, I'll just call her my little "Mystery Chick"! haha She's got the best personality of the bunch and has beautiful color to her...she looks so soft! Her name is Poulet (french)...we're trying to keep some form of "chicken" in each of the names. We also have Kip (dutch) the now-roo...
