Picture Of The Week (POW) Information & Submissions

Point-of-Lay pullets, Nugget the OE and Red Band, the Australorp or Australorp cross, who is so dark that I can't tell if she's blue or black but who seems to have lacing and isn't glossy-black like her sisters.

That isn't an Australorp, not with black skin. Crossed with a silky or an Ayam Cemani?

Nope.

I don't have any fibro breeds in my flock. Blue Australorps, French Cuckoo Marans, California White, some Lavender Orpington x SLWs, a Black Langshan, and a Dominique (though I don't *think* I hatched any of her eggs because they're smaller than I like). I don't know if the Lavender Orpinton or the Mottled Javas were laying when I hatched that batch.

She's gypsy-faced, yes, but if she's blue she has to be half Australorp at the least. She's clean-legged so it's unlikely that the Black Langshan rooster was her father.
 
Agreed. Someone in that flock isn't exactly what they say.

It's an Australorp or an Australorp cross, because I only had 2 males and one was a Black Langshan. His babies have feathered feet.

You can see every adult bird in my flock in these photos:
