“By far my favorite breed we've ever had. The first black Australorp we had decided that since we didn't have a rooster, she was going to fill that role. She never laid but became the flock protector and was incredibly sweet and friendly to everyone. She actually died protecting her flock from a predator. We're now on our third Black Australorp and they've all been sweet and friendly, if a little shy sometimes. Highly recommend.”
Thank you so much for your feedback. We're thrilled to hear that you have had such a positive experience with the Black Australorp breed. They truly are amazing birds with unique personalities. It's heartwarming to hear about the loyal and protective nature of your first Black Australorp, even in the absence of a rooster. We're sorry for your loss, but it's inspiring to know she sacrificed herself to protect her flock. Once again, thank you for your kind words and for highly recommending the Black Australorp. If there's anything else we can assist you with in the future, please don't hesitate to let us know. We value your trust and satisfaction as our customer.
“We have a mixed flock and this is by far our favorite chicken. She is calm and gentle and doesn’t mind being held by our toddler. I will definitely get another Australorp in the future.”
Thank you for taking the time to review one of our Black Australorps! We agree they are so sweet! My Pet Chicken hopes to help you with your flock care needs in the future!
“Last year I got an Australorp from here before and she made it through shipping to Arizona. They are beautiful and reliable egg layers too. The 2 I ordered this year made it through shipping and look like they're thrving too. This breed has been our friendliest of the bunch.”
Thank you for letting us know about your experience with this breed. Their beautiful black feathers often shine with purple or green iridescence in the sun.
Heidi, your babies are adorable! Thank you for taking the time to let us know how they are doing and sharing these wondeful photos! Please let My Pet Chicken know if you ever have any questions or concerns and how we may help you with any of your flock care needs!
“All 3 arrived in excellent health. They are doing great! I'm exceptionally happy with My Pet Chicken! Their customer service is phenomenal, too! I had called up to see if I could add another chick to my existing order and they updated it with no issue!”
“This bird is beautiful. She's my biggest, and one of the top hens, but she's not overly aggressive. Lays gorgeous large brown eggs almost every day, friendly and likes to be handled. Highly recommend.”
