Black Australorp Chicks - Premium Egg Laying Breed

Black Australorp Chicks are renowned for their exceptional egg-laying capabilities, especially in warmer climates like Arizona and Texas. With the ability to produce 4-6 large brown eggs per week, even during the heat of summer or the cold of winter, these birds have become a favorite among poultry enthusiasts. Their glossy black feathers, which develop a stunning green sheen as they mature, add a touch of elegance to any flock.

Why Choose Black Australorp Chicks?

These chicks mature early and have a docile, quiet temperament, making them great for families, beginners, and anyone looking for a hardy bird that's easy to handle. Known for their dual-purpose utility, Black Australorps are excellent for both egg production and meat. With hens averaging 6 1/2 pounds and roosters 8 1/2 pounds, they are an all-around valuable addition to any backyard flock.

Care and Habitat Requirements

Black Australorps thrive in both free-range and coop environments, making them versatile for various setups. They are heat- and cold-hardy, making them ideal for the fluctuating climates of Arizona and Texas. Provide a balanced diet, fresh water, and plenty of shade in the summer to ensure they remain productive and healthy.

Consistent Egg Production Year-Round

Black Australorps are consistent layers, producing 4-6 large brown eggs each week, even continuing through winter months. This makes them an excellent breed for year-round egg production.

Health & Nutrition Guidelines

Provide your Australorps with high-quality layer feed, grains, and calcium to support strong eggshells and overall health. They are an easy-going breed that's resistant to many common poultry illnesses.

Breed Info & FAQ

Are there any upgrades or add-ons that make chick raising easier?

Most first-time and Arizona customers do best when they add a starter bundle that includes high-protein feed, chick grit, electrolytes or probiotics, and a simple supplement plan, plus an extended warranty if they want extra protection. These pieces together dramatically increase early survival and growth, and they save you from multiple store trips in the first week.

Are you responsible for USPS delays?

We hand off healthy, properly packed birds and eggs on our normal schedule, but transit timing is controlled by USPS, so delivery speed itself is not guaranteed and is outside our direct control. Our guarantees focus on condition on arrival and clear documentation of any losses, not on whether the box was delayed a day in the postal network.

Can I add an extended warranty after placing my order?

Yes, extended coverage such as GritShieldâ„¢ can usually be added as long as your birds have not shipped yet, so contact support promptly if you decide you want extra protection. Once birds are in transit, new warranty add-ons are limited availability.
