Show off your Black Australorp

[Beastie]

This is my little lady Luna, whom I think is an Australorp. Can anyone tell me if I am correct?

I am looking for a black australorp breeder who has exhibition stock. I'm in Southern California and have 3 sons who would like to show BA's for their 4-H project.

Thank you!

I bought these 2 April 2nd I was told were BAs. Now at a month old they show signs of barring and my Ethel is looking more like an Earl.

Are they maybe not BAs? Ethel/Earl is a bit larger and look at that comb and wattle... compared to Lillys.

Those two are not BAs. The one on the right looks like a roo.

Australorps should have very dark brown or black irises (eyes).

I'm in a raising chickens group on Facebook and someone who raises/breeds black Australorps shared a pic of her birds and one of them had the lighter eye color as well so maybe it varies?

The American SOP calls for "Eyes: Dark Brown"
