Australorp chick

[Emmylem11]

This sweet chick was sold as a black Australorp, I purchased two at the same time and one is clearly blacker, this one seems to be grey? Or is this what black Australorps look like around 4 weeks? New to Australorp chicks I hope she’s a she?!

Comb type is incorrect for Australorp.
Cute birds.

I have Blue Australorps but I agree that the comb is wrong.

Black australorps I have were black and yellow patches in the down. As they feather up, they are getting black feathers.

Yes when they were little I do recall some yellow. Here’s a pic of the three we brought home as black Australorp chicks

One is clearly more black and she’s the one that is mostly grey
