What does the egg song sound like?

She is a Black Australorp. They are black and when they get in the sun, their feathers have a pretty green tint to them. They also have black legs.

I agree, Black Australorp...if the bottoms of her feet should be white rather that yellow. She will lay you lots of lovely brown eggs. I

my BA`s , gentle and freindly birds...congrats.

If you'd like to hear an audio file of the real thing, PM me with your e-mail address and I'll send a 3 minute Egg Song as sung by my Rebecca, directly from my cell phone.

You have to check the bottom of their feet.

If they are white she is an Australorp.

If they are yellow she is a Black Jersey Giant.
