Those black australorps are nice layers with quite a few laying double yolk eggs.

Well one day the rooster went to far and my boy whipped his butt, but had scratches on his arms. That was it, I went out to the barn and we had chicken for supper that night. Then the only roosters we had were a buff and a comet, they were good ole boys. One day I'll tell ya about the wild black australorps lol.


One day Catch wink

Lol, yes. The story goes when we bought a mini farm back in the day it came with about ten or so BA hens and a rooster. They had a coop but were left to fend for themselves and roosted in a maple in the back yard. So I retrained them to use the coop, great layers. Well the coop was in bad shape so we built really nice pens in the barn and I went in to move the birds to the barn. Well the rooster wasn't having it. So it was on and he would go for the face. He run me out of the coop a couple times and knocked my glasses off lol. So the last time he ran me out, my daughter was about 5 at the time was standing at the open kitchen window with her hand on her hip and yelled, what's a matter daddy, skerred of a little ole chicken. I laughed so hard. I finally got the rooster in the barn and the hens did good, he didn't like it and died a few weeks later. The end. grin


I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

I like guineas. They work great with dogs. When the guineas start yelling, my dogs run to them and usually kill the cause of the alarm, which is to distracted by the guineas, until it's to late. They sell well as keets and adults too.
