The only problem with your getting 4 Speckled Sussex is that you are going to want at least a dozen more! They are some of my all time favorite birds. They are beautiful and extremely curious. They will always be under your feet and always want to play with your shoe strings. Welcome to the Sussex addiction!!!!!

Oh and they are the same as every other chick as far as care. All of the advice everyone has given you is spot on. Keep em warm 95 degrees the first week and drop the temp. 5 degrees every week until you get down to around 70. If you are getting chick this time of year, make sure you keep them warm until they are fully feathered and they should be fine. Clean water and feed 24/7 in a secure brooder and you should have great success!

Good luck to you! I hope you love the breed as much as I do!
