Description

The Australorp is a breed native to Australia - having been bred from the Orpington chicken. It was bred to be a good dual purpose chicken, as it is a heavy breed that lays eggs productively, regardless of weather patterns or seasonal changes.
A backyard Australorp lays 250+ tinted to light brown, medium/large eggs a year. They are generally considered good sitters and mothers. They do well in confinement as long as they are also allowed to do some foraging, which they enjoy. If they are kept only in confinement, they may get fat. Due to their black color, they do best if they have ample shade in warm weather so they don’t get overheated.
They are friendly (even the roosters) and are a good breed for children who want to show in 4H or other youth competitions. They do well with other breeds with like temperament.
