How does an australorp chicken laying 250 eggs a year vary with age
 * As the Australorp gets older it lays fewer eggs. Its most productive time is from 6 months to 2 years of age. --Maustrauser 06:34, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

Australorp Colours and Conservation Status
The Australorp was incorrectly marked as only coming in Black, which is an error. Blue Australorp's are recognized by the Australian Poultry Standard, and additionally, the Australorp Club of Australia also recognizes White Australorp's and has in fact submitted an application to have them added to the 2nd Edition of the Australian Poultry Standard. Also, the Australorp in Australia is classed as Common, not Recovering or Rare, according to the Rare Breeds Trust of Australia. I've gone ahead and fixed these errors, so I'm adding this to the talk page to explain why I made the changes I did, Thank You. Anjwalker (talk) 12:03, 10 September 2011 (UTC)

Image NOT an Australorp
I wanted to explain the reason I reverted the image found in this revision back to the previous image. The image recently placed on this article by Michael Gäbler does not show an Australorp. Per the standard (Standard on the Australorp Club of Australia website) the eye of an Australorp should be black. Also, the bird in the image display's brown flecking in its plumage, which shows that it is not a purebred Australorp. Anjwalker  Talk 05:45, 14 December 2011 (UTC)

Temperature-sensitive tyrosinase?
Does anyone know if black australorps are temperature-sensitive tyrosinase mutants? Siamese cats and Himalayan rabbits possess a similar tyrosinase allele, which causes their extremities to turn certain colors. I notice this in black australorp chicks, too, which usually grow up to be all black. mohawkjohn (talk) 19:49, 14 June 2012 (UTC)
