Can anyone tell me how to tell the difference between the two breeds? I'm curious to know.

Black Andalusians are a mediterranian breed and lay a white egg, and Black Australorps are a Australian breed developed from Black Orpingtons and lay a brown egg.
 
Also, Black Andalusians are skinnier in type, have white earlobes, and I believe they have white soles.

Black Australorps are your typical production type in body, have red earlobes, and are far more common.
