Do your Australorps lay through winter?

I found breed references that indicate they are NOT winter layers but noticed a fair share of posts that say SOME of you are getting quite a few winter eggs.

So which is it? Do your 'lorps lay well in winter? Have a drop? Or pretty much stop laying?

Wondering if a deep freeze has something to do with it so please note if you get any serious winter weather. Brrrrrrrrrr!

I guess I should have posted this question on a different thread? Surely there are a few Australorp lovers out there?
