The Splash Australorp is another color variety of the more popular Black Australorp. Splash Australorp chicks are a blue/grey color as chicks. As they mature they will develop light grey/blue feathers with darker blue and grey specks in them. Hens lay 260+ brown colored eggs per year. Females of this variety are usually easy going and would make a good addition to your flock.
Valley Farms Hatchery has selectively bred the Splash Australorp since 2020.
