Splash Australorp Chickens
Did you know that Australorp chickens weren’t always called Australorps? At one time the birds were just called Australian Black Orpingtons. You know why???
Australorps go way back to the early 1900s. Back in the day, some Black Orpington chickens were exported from England to Australia for Aussie breeders to cross with various chicken breeds to improve the Black Orpington chickens use for meat and eggs.
Rhode Island Red chickens were the main breed crossed with Black Orpingtons to create Australorp hens and Australorp roosters. To a lesser degree, Minorca, White Leghorn, and Langshan chickens were also bred with Black Orpingtons to produce Australorps as well.
The Ameraucana chicken is a relatively new breed that was developed in the 1970s. They were accepted by the American Poultry Association (APA) as a distinct breed in 1984.
While some people think that the Araucana chicken and the Ameraucana chicken are the same breeds and that they are nicknamed the “Easter Egg Chicken” or “Easter Eggers,” these are three different kinds of birds.
Although it’s not entirely clear as to which of these three came first, it is likely that the Easter Egg chicken showed up first. These birds carry the gene for blue eggs but can lay eggs of any color, including white, brown, green, blue, and pink.
The many different egg colors actually result from the fact that the Easter Egg chicken is of uncertain ancestry. These carry the genes for laying some or all of these different colored eggs.
Ameraucanas must have certain characteristics if they are to be accepted as purebred representatives of the breed. They must be one of the acceptable colors for the breed. These colors are:
Black
Blue Wheaten
Brown-red
Blue
Buff
Silver
Wheaten
White
They must also possess certain other traits, including:
Possessing a full tail instead of being rumpless
A pea comb
Muffs on both sides of the face, which are feathery puffs that nearly hide the face
Curved beak
Small or absent wattles
Small earlobes
Expressive eyes
Fairly large wings
