australorp black

17 weeks old - bought them straight run as week old chicks at tractor supply. Love them but cannot have roosters in the city.

Hi All, I have a 25 week old Australorp (cross?). This is one big bird compared to the others, but they are all different breeds. No eggs and no crowing yet. Any idea if it's a hen or rooster? Nice temperament either way.

Please help me find which chicken is crowing before I go insane. Thank you!

We have a black Australorp rooster and 24 black Australorp hens. We also have 10 white Leghorn hens. My dad hatched out 4 black Australorp chicks and 2 of the mix chicks. Is there any way to sex the black Australorp chicks? They are almost 2 weeks old. Thank you in advance!

hi y’all. I’ve read through several threads and haven’t found anything to help with my concerns. I have 3 Australorps that were a year on March 4. there is a pecking order that was established quite a while ago but never had serious issues. within the past couple of weeks, two of my girls have...

I just got this beautiful chicken but I’m not sure of the breed. She’s black with a speckled blue sheen, she does appear to have 5 toes in one photo (I haven’t counted in person yet but will tomorrow morning). I suspect she’d black australorp and silkie or maybe easter egger and black copper...

Hi everyone! I'm most definitely new to chickens, get 1st chicks in late October. Thanks for the add.

I bought 2 blue australorp chicks from a pullet bin. Was taking photos of them today and realized one of them has a significantly larger comb and wattles are already coming in. I think it's a roo. I've never had a rooster before. Can yall confirm, and also provide any advice that might be...

Hi everyone! I raised 8 australorps (6 black and 2 blue) recently hoping for 4 hens (fisrt time having chickens since I was a late teen). 1 unfortunately had to be put down from an unknown neurological problem but of the remaining 7 I think I have ended up with 4 Roos and 3 hens. I am attaching...

So, I’m not sure the breed. My husband said Andalusian or golden laced Wyandotte but I really don’t know. Also, not sure the sex. Any thoughts? I really appreciate it! He/she is 6 wks old.

Hello all! These are my 5 week old baby chicks. Their breeds are: black australorp, barred plymouth rock, rhode island red, olive easter eggers (2 grey ladies), and a golden laced wyandotte. I’m curious to see if anyone can sex them because I have no clue how to- they’re my first flock! Please...

Hi all! I'm planning on having my 2 year old black australorp adopt some chicks tonight. She has been broody about 3 weeks. I just got the chicks this morning, four total! (RIR, production blue and two amberlinks) I have moved her to our smaller coop that we use for brooding/isolation. She...

16 healthy Black Australorps from Mt Healthy Hatcheries. They just arrived this morning!

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!

Hey everyone!! So I was just out feeding my 8 chickens, 6 black australorps (hens), 1 black jersey giant (hen) and 1 salmon faverolle (rooster), and couldn’t find one of the hens. I told my hubby to check the coop, we haven’t put in the 4 best boxes yet as we weren’t expecting the girls to lay...
