I do things in order, a routine, in my coops. The BA's are friendly, and chatty, BUT let me do things out of order, and they let me know it. They will tell me off, quite loudly. It's so funny.

I have 3 though I'm pretty sure the two 4 year olds from Meyer have some Jersey Giant in them.
I suspected she might be mixed, I got them as chicks together at a small feed store, that had just gotten in a whole rack of them.Hello , It sounds like the one with brown eyes may be a mix ..
Aussies have black Eyes . Glad they are getting along better
Anyone know what age the pullets start to show red combs? We have 8 australorps that are 3.5 weeks old and 3 have red combs. The rest have black or yellow combs.
Oh wow all of ours have combs, but with varying sizes and colors.I had 2 BA, and they didn't show much of a comb at all at 3.5 weeks. They started showing more around 7-8 weeks, and then it was just a small yellow comb.
I didn't realize we could already sex some of them this early. I read australorps take a long time to be able to sex. I guess it's still too early to sex the pullets, though.Anything showing red at that age is a cockerel. Pullets won't start pinking up until they are much closer to laying age.
