Raising black Australorps and Barred Rock in the same coop and run??

[Rancid Crbtree]

Do you foresee any issue with combining the two breads in the same cop and run?

Not at all. I've done it twice with no issues.

I've had black australorp, but I don't see any issues. When you get into it, you just have to assess the birds' size and attitude. Genetics may play a factor. If one breed gets picked on a lot more than the other, I'd separate them. Had this issue with my ISA Browns and colored eggers. The colored eggers were smaller and the ISA Browns were pretty chicken aggressive - I did not enjoy the feather plucking and bullying, and eventually rehomed most of the ISA browns.

Sure, why not?
