We love our australorps. They’re classic chickens… very beautiful, good layers, just nice to have around. One of ours tends to wander a bit more than the rest of the flock. I once opened our front door to find a neighbor whom I had never met, coming by to tell me that one of our chickens was in his yard. I went to check on it and there she was several houses and some woods away, foraging in their grass. 
They begin life as multicolored chicks.
Before you know it that baby will have become a stunning hen.
It’s amazing how that happens.
Consider the australorp if your choosing your breeds today!
