😄 I had to laugh when you said all the chicks were roosters. My husband and I ordered 25 chicks when we had a little land and over half of them turned out to be roosters. One rooster is great, but over a dozen is enough to drive a person mad!
That's when you pull out the buckshot lmao
Nothing sweeter than a hen with her chicks 🐥 ...!!
Love this..❤️❤️
Glad you enjoyed the sweet chicks and their Mumma.
Love it when lil fuzzy butts do their first dust baths lol ❤
jstar hol isn’t it cool how they just know what to do - they’re so cool! 😎
It's so adorable how they would jump on her back and lay there
They were so fun
Far out! I'm glad we didnt get any 46 days!!!! It was so awesome watching them grow 😍😍😍
Living The Dream Homestead it was extreme, January had only 1 day below 37C and 11 days were above 40C.... I seriously thought this aircon fade would be a good idea as it was 40C in the house but felt hotter than outside at 46C in the shade.
Thankfully we only had a few problematic fires nearby in the season and that was really all. The CFA sorted them all out and we weren’t as affected as you.
We still haven’t had any rain though so the drought continues.
Oh my how beautiful!
Hi Audrey Stewart, they were so lovely. 😊
Its amazing how much they look like sapphire gems as babies!
They are all so wonderfully cute
I love your way of talking.. Very polite
farhan mirza thanks 😊
Those little babies are so cute! I love baby chicks 😊
Hi Little Bean's Garden oh so do I, even when they all turn out to be boys.
woow, this was one of the most interesting videos I have watched today
Thanks Thandile Mayila, I am glad you enjoyed it.
Best job
Glad you enjoyed the chicken video Abbal.
So cute
Thanks for watching 😀
winderful nice species great work
Many thanks Rasool
beautiful breed.
I think so too!
OMG so cute and beautiful
I’m glad you enjoyed
A very therapeutic video in even have mine too I spend most of the time watching these beautiful birds
I bought three chickens from my agriculture class, two barred rocks and one australorp. I love how kind australorps are. And at 3:15 the mom is like NO MORE LEAVES!!!!! All my chickens are a month old and doing well, hope those roosters and the adults doing well 🙂
Spinel is happy now! Congratulations on your lovely new flock. Yes Australorps have beautiful, friendly personalities and the cockerels have plenty of personality. I sold the boys because I’m not allowed roosters where I live and the girls are great.
I like it , thank you
I'm glad you like it
Just lovely!!! ❤❤❤❤💋💋💋💋
We had 1000 chickens on the property at one point and i plan on doing it again
Nice video!!!
Thanks so much for watching
Beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow naglilimlim pala ang australorp .
how adorable.....
Hi Angie Dasner, they were so adorable, with big personalities 💕
Great. I like.
MA K hello MA K thanks for the feedback, I’m glad you enjoyed the chickens 😊
@@MoatCottage appreciate From my ❤️
That's normal weather in Arizona. This place is like hell on earth all summer. Then in the winters it's like most other states summertime. Once in a great while it gets cold in the winter. It snowed one year for five minutes.
We grew some around June 2020, they are big and laying eggs now!
Excellent, enjoy your eggs
Loved that video 😁
Chris Gingerich thanks for watching 😊
very nice you and your backyard chicken also.
OMG so cool
Hey Patti Kemp thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed. 😊
It's nice to see hat the Muskovi's are so gentle towards the little chicks. This year I am starting to raise Muskovi ducks too. But I breed coucou Malines too. So this video gives me some reassurance that the ducks and the chickens will do just fine together.
Loved the background music and u too 😍
Hi Bald Eagle, it was a fun track to go with the energetic Australorp chicks 🐣
Krahet e shkurtra gjel👍
Sooo Cute 😘
Imran Lodhi they really were sooo cute weren’t they. 🐣
Babies with big voices! I bet the neighbors had a hissy fit when they started crowing! !
Oh HootOwl Holler, I felt so bad but the neighbours were good about it.
I’ll time it better next attempt, to fit in with the Auction day.... of course I’m hoping they will all be girls next time 😂
That1 sure loved mamas back. Lol
Hi Edie Boudreau, I should have known they were boys all boys, when they showed so much wild personality.
Thats when it was time to let them free range, under supervision from the predators.
😂
Lovely farm😌🤙
nebra ful thank you 😊
Lovely birds , sorry you got 4 roosters . I was lucky to get 5 hens from 7 that hatched out of a dozen eggs so only 2 boys who had to go to other homes . It's always pot luck .
Hello Richard Anthony Urch 5 from 7 is very lucky for sure, it really is pot luck but I’ve never had zero ladies in a hatch before, but odds are it’s bound to happen eventually.... maybe next Spring I’ll get all females 😂🤞🏼
Dang your lucky
nice i have 4 isa brown hens... and a Australorp rooster a sliver lace hen to start
wow
The same happened to me last year 😳, I decided to let my 3 girls that I'd hatched from an incubator, (including 3 rooster's) lay fertised eggs,but non where broody so incubated 4 chicken & 4 duck eggs all at the same time 🥰,3 weeks later I had 4 cockerels 😳,4 week later I had 1 duck,2 drakes 😳😞❤️.it's a 50% chance that you'll mostly get rooster's 🐓. This morning my Pekin Bantam hatched 5 eggs 🐣🥰,will let you know the ratio once there a bit older 🥰🤞🏻🥰.
So all cockerels. Ah hopefully they were headed to a good home. I thought maybe they were headed to freezer camp until you said auction. Lol
Edie Boudreau unfortunately or fortunately (depends how you look at it) they were making too much noise to let grow to size here, so I couldn’t keep them any longer.
lovely video. you had provided excellent environment to the chicks. do you remember what was the weight of rooster and hen when they were 3 months old?
There is a neighborhood in Toronto where almost everyone has backyard chickens, but nobody is bothered and no one is reporting anyone, even though it's not permitted, Nice Black Australorps. As long as you don't bring in Guini-hens, Those would terrorize the entire yard and coop, plus they make a lot of noise.
Giardintek sounds like a cool neighbourhood and yes guinea fowl are so loud, I guess that would be pushing the good neighbour relationships 😊
What a great video !! I hate when they turn out to be roosters.I just got 4 Bantams and 4 Barred Rock, straight run. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Janie2Shoes you’re welcome and thanks for your feedback.
When you say straight run, they weren’t all boys were they?
@@MoatCottage Straight run means they could be either boys or girls.
Janie2Shoes ok well hopefully you get plenty of females 🤞🏼😊🐣
Ma'am i love your austrolop can you please tell me what dite you can use for your austrolop chicks..
Amazing you got four , do you eat them or what do you do with so many roosters ???
Miss you are so pretty. Thanks for sharing! I just started learning about quiet chicken breeds and it was nice to see info about what they look like growing up. For this breed were they essentially only noisy as babies? Everywhere I've looked says these one of two super quiet breeds of chicken.
Ninqi Stratton I’ve been told they’re a very quiet breed, just the roosters are noisy (as expected). Good luck!
Hi Ninqi, they are quiet meaning chilled out, relaxed personality but they do make a bit of noise when laying an egg. Thanks for watching.
How interesting that you didn’t get any hens! Hopefully next time! Thanks for the fun video😉
Hi Trisha Brink yes I’ve never had that happen before, I found it interesting too.
I can’t imagine it would happen again in a hurry so fingers crossed 🤞🏼 for Spring 🐣
The video is nice.I wanted to ask if you have a hen who has suffered infectious coryza for one month and half and you have used all the treatment related to the problem but there is no improvement or relief,what should i do??
at what age did your australop go broody o like which season?cause I've been trying on my australops they never gone broody till now started laying a few months ago
My hens lay eggs then get broody, but close to hatching time they get a bit impatient and I have not had one successful hatching. Any suggestions?.
I just have one Bl Australorp in a mixed flock with Cuckoo Marans, Bielefelders, Speckled Sussex, Whiting True Blues, and an Ameraucana..it’s surprisingly difficult to determine what they are, even in such a small mix of fifteen! I have one lavender one, I think she’s either the Ameraucana, or a Whiting True blue, but, at two and a half weeks, I just don’t know!
Your Flock sounds beautiful John, I have recently added Cuckoo Morans to my flock too.
Cool. I just got my second "batch" of Australorp chicks from the hatchery. 🙂
Chase Rioux how wonderful, I bet they’re growing fast 🐣
My black australorp was careless my bantam took care of her baby
What was the final weight after three months?
My Black Australorp is not a good mother, she had a baby and the rooster killed it, but our bantam is a good mother
how to check Australorp orignal breed ?
Hello
We have got some babies from a daycare hatching and are not sure what age they are. They look around the same as the 3min20 sec mark of the video! We want to put them outside soon! How long do you suggest! We have 3 other chickens but they will be separate
Hey Baizl, this video will help you th-cam.com/video/9qGn1j9WrJ8/w-d-xo.html
I have a broody hen with eggs. How long before you can let them into the space where the other chickens are? Will the mother protect them?
Hi Sassy Sarina, I just wrote an essay to respond to your question and somehow it deleted before I could send.....NOOOOOO!
It may have been too long, IDK, So I will respond in a video ASAP
@@MoatCottage Thank you!
Australorps are apparently docile, quiet birds, do you find that to be true? Are they ever rowdy at sunrise or when they lay eggs? I've had 5 Isa Browns for a year now, and they are terrific layers, but I'm in town and tired of the early morning ruckus :D I've already sold 2 and thinking about replacing all of them with Australorps or Orpingtons. (Southern NSW, Aus here)
Brett Phillips g’day Brett, Australorps are fairly docile but still with great personalities. As far as noise, this varies on each bird.... I had a hen who made such a fuss when laying AND when her Sister was laying and yet her sister was as quiet as the Muscovies (which is very quite).
Over the years (at times when I had no rooster) I have also had 2 hens that would crow. One was an Orpington and the other is an Australorp. The Australorp only crows after 7am when it’s time for me to let them out but the Orpington with crow randomly throughout the day.
Neither crowed in the early hours of the morning like roosters though.
I don’t think this is much help, but stay safe in NSW 😊
Beautiful birds. It is a shame about the bylaws. Fortunately for me, my local council (where I rent) only mentions dogs in their animal noise section.
Oxygen Farmer I love a good Poultry bi law, loop hole. 😁
where did you send them to auction as i have a male one thats just before it crows :)
Hi past present, check the Weekly Times for dates and locations near you.
They have them everywhere.
You need to book the birds in at least a few week prior to the Auction.
@@MoatCottage can you attach a link here, im in melton
past present Bmmpc.com.au/
That’s the Bacchus Marsh and Merton Poultry Club info, they will be able to tell you when the Auctions are near you. They also have a FB page.
Hi Elisa would you recommend these chickens I've never owned chickens before, I was thinking about road island reds what do you suggest thanks x
Hi Kristen, (I am finding messages I have missed so I apologise for the delay) Yes, definitely, I love Australorps so I definitely recommend them, They are the best layers of all the chickens and as a pure breed they continue to lay past the first 2 years. Rhode Island reds are also fun chickens, I have owned them before too, they are slightly smaller than the australorps and can be more fiesty but are also nice birds and would make a nice addition to your family.
@@MoatCottage thanks for your reply we ended up getting Isa browns mega cute
Kirsten's Creations I’m thrilled you got some chickens 😊
@@MoatCottage we are to hope you are doing well xx
Kirsten's Creations yes thanks, all good here.
Yeah murgi bina murge ke ande deti hai ya nhi
what feed do you feed them?
Jennie Teddybead the baby chicks and mum get started for chickens, they are free range so the find bugs, plants and grasses, worms and seeds as well and when older I supplement them with fermented grain (one of my first how to videos) and the adult laying hens get access layer pellets.
thanks for the response gdbless
i have 4 month old australorp hens. one of my hens recently started to crow, it sounds a bit different from a roosters crow. is she going to lay?
No she is a gay.
Elisa Campanelli it sounds like she may be a cockerel, they sound funny to start with before they get the hang of crowing, of course by the time they are roosters they have it worked out. When I have a hen that crows, she is usually older.
Elisa Campanelli let me know how she/he turns out, I’d love to know.
Very nice. Can I buy australorp pair from you?
Hi Rafat, if you saw, I am trying to increase my numbers too and only breed boys. 😊
Day old chick What age you stop feeding them with starter?
It depends on the brand of starter you use, it will usually be written on the packaging.
My birds become free range early, so start finding new things to eat (including the fermented grain for the adult birds) and so I phase out the starter at around 6 weeks and by 8 weeks they no longer get any.
Some brands of feed will say to stop feeding it at 6 weeks due to the high protein, which can cause liver damage.
So I'm pretty sure I bought a little rooster today but I would like to know for sure.
Hi Elisabeth Rutledge, if you are on Instagram and post a pic, tag me @moatcottagehomesteading and I’ll have a look, maybe we can work it out?
Moat Cottage Homesteading do you have a Twitter or Facebook
Hello
Did you give any vaccine to chicks till 3 months?
Hi Hamil, I have had free range chickens for 27 years and it has never been necessary for me to vaccinate there. If disease was an issue here, then I would. They do get medication in their feed for the first 8 weeks.
What I said in my other account Hamid
@@ElissaJayneOfficial What type of medications for the first 8 weeks? Is it already added in the feed by factory or you add them by yourself?
It’s in the chicken Starter feed already.
Hi Elissa, hope you and your chicks will be fine. I am from Pakistan and trying to develop my own chicken farm especially the Australorp and RIR species of chicks, here both of the species are not pure and I am looking for the real ones. Could you please help me out in this regard.
Best wishes and regards,
Ahmed Raza Mastan.
are the roosters good for meat?
Alphonse Faure yes they are fabulous meat birds
I have also 9 chincks.. Pakistan
