Hi guys,

Firstly I would like to thank you all as a community, I have learned so much from you guys here and you guys are always so helpful in every situation.

So around 2 months ago I bought around 50 australorp chicks, shipped to me by air, around 15 died and 35 survived. Now they're 2 months old and I can see brown feathers :eek:

Turns out they're commercial bred australorps, not pure (didn't know that was a thing). Here's a pic:

So luckily now a good friend of mine is travelling to Dallas, USA in March and will return at he start of April. I would like to get 4-5 dozen fertile eggs for hatching of pure breed chickens.

1. I need recommendations for where to get these eggs from? Any place that has certified pure bred chickens?
2. What breeds should i venture into?

I was thinking of getting:
1. Black Aurtos
2. White Sussex
3. Plymouth Barred
4. Brahmas
5. Easter eggers

A dozen eggs of each variety should be ok, any recommendations on that?

Here's a video of current flock, can't wait for the eggs to start coming in:
 
I think you got a few roosters among them, mind the space you have, don't let the morehens disease carry you far away
Very few "if any" will hatch from fertile eggs flown half the world away

I thought so too until recently I saw on a Facebook poultry forum, a guy brought 12 eggs from Chicago to Pakistan got them x-rayed and all and hatched 8 out of 12. So that has given me the courage to order a few dozen for my self.
