Australorps Breeding for SOP and Exhibition Thread

Ask them. Many breeders will share that info.

She said they are her own line. Never said where she got her start from.

I'd press for a bit more information. It could be they came from a very good line. Tell her what you're interested in. That's in Texas, so I'd ask if the original stock came from the Chet Hupp line in Arizona.

I did that. This was before I learned about the Rattlesnake line. I see only one person is offering hatching eggs of that line and of course hatching eggs are hit and miss!

Hi There,
This is Tara with BlueRooFarmOH, I have the Rattlesnake Ridge line and bred that line with Black Champion Australorp genes from a guy in my area that always wins the Dayton Fancy Feather Show. I will have hatching eggs this spring if you're interested. Chet in AZ, sold his line to a woman then, I think she started breeding something else. I really wanted to add Chets genes to rattlesnack ridge, then she backed out.
