    Sussex Breeders and Owners Discussion Thread

    You could keep a couple of those yellow legged birds to use to test hatch with your whited legged birds. If any of the offspring have yellow legs, you will know that your white legged parent is carrying the recessive gene for yellow legs.

    Here is a picture of the first set of bantam SS chicks I hatched. They were just a day old at the time. From show quality parents.

    Speckled Sussex - Breeding to the SOP

    In my line of bantam SS, the birds with the white breasts at this age are typically cockerels. Looks like you have quite a few of them. I see that you have them banded. Take notes on what you see at various stages and then compare with what you see when they become adults. You can learn a lot...

    Chicken Breed Focus - Appenzeller Spitzhauben

    Yes. That looks to be a cockerel. Pullets wouldn't have wattles that big at 9 weeks. He is a pretty boy, though.
