Difference Between Roos?

[drdoolittle]

Can anyone tell me the difference between a Black Australorp rooster and a Black Orpington rooster? I don't know which I have and would like to know. I can post a picture of mine.

Here's my roo, El Monstruo

I would say it's much more likely that you have a black australorp roo. They are much more common, but other than that, a black orp would be much more full. Looser feathers, fatter looking.
