Any Mystic Onyx Chicken Owners?

Indi is beautiful. How old is she?
She's seven months old.
What other breeds do you have and how does her disposition and temperament differ from the other breeds?
The breeds I own are listed in my "about".
Indigo is towards the middle/bottom of the pecking order as of right now (I just re-homed a cockerel and they're all trying to sort their pecking order out), but she's not horribly picked on. She just leaves everyone alone and they do the same in turn. Our cockerel paid no mind to her, both from the mating and pecking order standpoint.
I can't really give the temperament of the whole breed, as obviously every chicken is different. Maybe if we really get this thread going we'll have a better view of the breed :)
 
I'm "mixing" right now because of what I have and wanting a smaller size, ie bantam. I don't have any Mystic Onyx but the blacks and blacks with fiery reddish leakage is what I'm looking for.
As for black breeds, I also have:
- Two solid black Prairie Bluebell Eggers (which I know, like the Mystic Onyx, aren't really a recognized breed). The PBEs can come in any color, though; I've had a grey one as well. All my PBEs have been relatively small, even though they are considered a standard size chicken. They're the friendliest birds I have (towards humans) and are in the middle of the pecking order.
- Two Black Australorps, which are only 7 months and very playful and sweet. Middle of the pecking order. I'm not sure how big they get since mine are only youngsters.
-One Black Copper Maran, who's a lovely solid black with fiery red streaks on her neck. She tolerates me. Middle of the pecking order. She's also only 7 months.
