A pen of Coronation Sussex at Villamil Farms, Westville, Oklahoma. We have a juvenile pair from these. This is our first time with any Sussex and looking forward to learning more!
The old homesteaders called these domineckers. Sort of like dominoes. Anything with a barred pattern were referred to as a dominecker. Gallusfarm is correct, TYPE is everything! No matter the breed, type makes the breed. Many of the hatcheries crossed a Dominique with their Barred Plymouth Rocks...
Hey Walt, Frank Reese Jr posted this on Facebook this morning. Can you name the breeds without looking down and reading the answers? This was a test Frank was taught as a child by Hy Patton.
