Australorps Breeding for SOP and Exhibition Thread

[Mosey2003]

She answered! Said she needs to call the state for more booklets anyway and is going to see what they say about when she can get the antigen. She's only like 4 miles from me, score!

Things are looking up!

I'll let you guys know if I find out anything soon from the IL DoA.

I read some some back that the NPIP test is different in each State for the basic illnesses tested for.

Hi There, just came across this and thought that I would share. There is a free webinar by the USDA on Biosecurity to protect your poultry. It is Feb. 27, 2:30-3:30. You can register www.aphis.usda.gov/animalhealth/defendtheflock.

Mosey, I'm so glad she returned your call. Things should start looking up now. Hopefully, they will get the antigen in very soon, or they will give a temporary exemption, and do the rest of the testing, so you can get your NPIP card.

I am glad to have found this thread. Who else shows black Australorps other than Matt ulrich and Dan castle? I know I am missing a couple. Man finding SOP Australorps is hard! And even harder that they are willing to show stock. .

There was another like... I will see if I can find it. They are from California though

I have crosses from the Kirk Keen line, and the Dan Castle line, that I got from Matt. Yes, finding good BA's is VERY hard. There are not many breeders.

Thanks Ronott. I had hatchery Australorps years ago when I had my first chickens. Thinking about them again! But I have been since spoiled with the SOP birds!
