Coronation Sussex Thread!

[katiebug84]

Didn't know there was one.  My Coro Sussex was a giant.  Bigger than my LF Orpington Rooster!

I'm trying to figure out if they exist in the states. Seems like the Uk and AU have them sometimes. Just not sure if they ever made it over here.

Hello,
I'm looking to get some coronation Sussex, I think they are absolutely beautiful! Anyone have any suggestions as to where I should order from? I can do hatching eggs or chicks, but I'm terrified to order online because you never know if they are reputable.

Thank you,

Hi, Angela.
We got our hatching eggs from BJs Poultry in Howell, Michigan. http://www.bjspoultry.com/coronation-sussex.html
The coronation we kept is a humongous fluffy bottomed girl that thinks she owns the place. She's the white one on the right.

I have purchased other hatching eggs from them and have had good hatch rates from all the breeds.

Who can tell me about the personality of Coronation Sussex? I am fascinated by them and would love to add one to my small mixed flock of beloved pets-who-lay-eggs!

I only had one. Very sweet-natured, loving, gentle, & pretty. Although easily the largest hen I owned, she was at the bottom of the pecking order.
