We're so sorry your Black Australorp chicks arrived that way — that’s never the experience we want for you or your flock. I know how upsetting this must have been.
I see that we have been in touch with you previously but please do not hesitate to reach out to our Flock Care team if there is anything further that we can do to help.
“We were only able to get one of these chicks due to availbility, but this little peep is wonderful. Seems to be the leader of the roost and fun for all to hold and enjoy.”
“Our Nugget is our biggest girl. She started to lay Brown speckled eggs around the 25 week mark. She lays about 5 large eggs a week. She is quite. She doesn't like being picked up but will let you pet her and gets along with all the hens. Beautiful girl. Would get more if I was allowed more.”
Thank you so much for sharing this lovely experience. Black Australorps are well known for their size, steady egg production, and calm presence in the flock, and it sounds like she fits that description beautifully. Not every hen enjoys being held, but their gentle and cooperative nature often makes them a joy to be around regardless. We are glad to hear she is thriving and contributing so well to your flock, and we completely understand the temptation to add more when space allows.
Thank you for your lovely review, Tamara! We're so glad to hear that your Australorp chicks are both sweet and feisty. They truly have such vibrant personalities that add so much joy to our lives. Wishing you endless fun with your chicks! Thank you for sharing photos of your chicks with us - they are truly adorable!
