I find mine to be very good layers, including though winter (although all mine are quite young, the oldest is a 2 years) make good meat birds, and are very easy to handle. They do go broody quite a lot, and make good mothers. Coronation Sussex are also excellent, but slightly harder to get.
Light Sussex?
As far as my goals go, the trouble is they change about once a day 🤦♀️ but overall I want to have eggs, have meat, and sell surplus pullets. But the breeding goals are hopeless, at least it keeps it interesting!
