Hi all, I'm new on here and really to forums also. I just started raising chickens this spring. I my chicks from Tractor Supply and the local Ace hardware store. I have 2 Production Red Pullets, 1 Jersey Black Giant Pullet, 4 Golden Laced Wyandotts, I think three pullets and 1 cockerell but time will tell. I also just got 3 Rhode Island Red hens from some friends and introduced them last week. They all seem to be getting along fine! After doing some internet reading, I would like to get 2 Speckled Sussex to add in, that's about all I have room for. I would love one of each sex! For as much as every raves on them, I can't believe they are so hard to find!!!!! At least in Indiana! If anyone knows where I can get 2 locally that would be great! Thanks!

Have you tried your local craig's list? This time of year a lot of hatcheries may be out of breeds so the feed stores aren't getting them either. You could also go to "where am I, where are you thread" in the social forum. You will find your state thread there and can ask if anyone near you has speckled Sussex or knows where to get them.

When you have 20 posts you can participate on the buy/sell/ trade BYC forum. Wish you luck finding that breed. Another greeter, Redsoxs will probably be answering your query soon. He has speckled Sussex but, I believe he lives in Kansas.

Follow DD's advice and if you can't find any place a "wanted" ad in the BST section. Hope you find some!

Ok, this is starting to piss me off! I joined this thinking that I could ask questions and learn a little about my chickens. How in the world do I start a new post? shouldn't there be something that says "start new post" or something to click on? I tried posting a classified to see if I could find a couple speckled sussex and it says that I can't post to the classifieds! What is the point in joining, if I can't post!
