My SandHill 'packing peanuts' eight red sussex. Didn't order them they came free, didn't plan on keeping them until I read up on sussex, now I can't wait for them to grow out. I think they're keepers.
At least that's what SandHill told me they are red sussex, what do you all think? I can't find any pics of the chicks, only what they look like full grown.
How'd you talk your wife into keeping them, lol?
I clicked on the photo and got a bigger shot, they are beautiful.
The comb on the rooster is magnificent.
Thanks! His comb was a lot better but he lost all points over the winter. I was pretty disappointed. That was my first winter with chickens, so hopefully that won't happen anymore.
Love the size of the chest on your rooster, I've never looked up Sussex until I was sent the ones I have now. Lost his points? From what? Can't be frostbite if your in Louisiana?
We had below zero all winter with -25 windchill most nights, months of it I thought they were all going to die, especially the polish, everyone did fine and a few laid all winter!. Our leghorn hens with their big floppy combs, no frostbite. Welsummer rooster had minor comb frostbite, nothing on the wattles, he lost no points.
