Hello

[OurPets]

Hi all,

We are new to chicken ownership and got our 2 chickens for pets and because we don't want to buy eggs from shops anymore. They have their forever homes with us unless they are he's. We have an Australorp and a Rhode Island Red (I have made a post about him/her).

We are in Australia.

Welcome to BYC! What better chicken to have in Australia than an Australorp. I'm in the USA, but Black Australorps are my favorite standard breed chicken due to their hardiness, calm and gentle temperament, and excellent egg laying ability. Good luck with your flock.

Hello there and welcome to BYC!

Australorps make wonderful pets and great for eggs. I just love my Aussies!

Have you stopped by the Australian thread yet? You can chat with all your chicken neighbors in Australia here...
