Black Australorp

[Darci]

I ordered a "heritage breed package" from a local hatchery and of course they come unsexed. Any idea what these 3 Australorps are?
They are 12 weeks old
Hoping for pullets as I am wanting to add to my flock of laying hens. I am thinking I didn't get so lucky though

If you are absolutely certain of the age, I am going to say cockerel x 3 because that is a WHOLE lot of red comb and wattle for 12 weeks.

Yup 12 weeks this Tuesday. The one on the right in the second picture I am thinking is a Danish Brown Leghorn pullet. Same age if you wanted a comparison

Those Aussies are both males, sorry.

I just bought two black australorps hoping for pullets as well... Yours do have more comb than mine

X2 on males. I'm sorry as well. (
