Giants would be cool. I picked up 3 like #10 and 3 like #11 today. Feathersite has a description of the bottoms of the feet being a difference between Australorps and Giants... and the bottoms of the feet on these guys are different and fit the description.
Australorps differ from Black Jersey Giants in that the legs of the Jersey Giant are black (some tending toward willow) and the underparts of the feet are yellow. In Lorps, the legs are black, shading to dark slate in adults, but the underparts of the feet are pinkish white. This works with good show stock, but hatchery stock is more variable and you can't ever be sure unless the birds grow to the size of Giants.
