Milliechick Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Hi, does anyone know about Australorps? I've looked at the breeds section and there is no feedback on them. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daphne Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 I don't keep them but have often thought about it. They are good egg layers, good pets and reasonably good meat birds. I think of them as a no-nonsense capable hardy bird which happens to look rather nice as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 My Australorp is so friendly and she's only a baby. She has a lovely nature and is never nasty to the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 My oracle says they are docile and quiet and happy being handled and says they tolerate being in a run, live a long time and taste nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 8, 2009 Share Posted October 8, 2009 I had an aussie bantam, lovely bird who laid well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
