Absolutly stunning birds..Thanks for sharing..I wish we could trade across the pond but no longer possible we are like an island now...it can be done but you need deep pockets and lots of patience...that is the problem...its little like brits trying to breed buckeyes the best will probably always be here... your orps are Fantastic birds and top of the breed game...
I do have to give credit to people like bama chickens, chalie and some of the other good breeders in here, I think bama has almost taken it to that level and added a little longer elegant neck to the bird which I like and managed to keep the shorter back and tails...they are like an art peice to me.. A pleasure to look at.
Your australorps are far superior to ours, we have birds that a long long time ago somone had the bright idea to add more leghorn and a pinch of rhode island red to up egg production even more ..you occasionally see a single red feather in a neck , huge tails, wrong color eye, looong backs, ect...
Im trying hard to correct some of this with very good quality black orps..we'll see. If nothing else I am determined to make this breed up o or close to your standard. I wisg you could post some more or your orps and australorps..we had a thread going but there was a whopping 6 of us I think, we run out of things to say.
