This is Scutt with his girls Freckles, Annie and Sally in the background. I try to get better pics of the girls but when I get near, they come running. Right under my feet.

I *DO* love the nice personality of the Sussex so! Mine are as friendly as my Rocks, and that's really saying something!!
so are the speckleds very competitive at shows. right now im only interested in birds i can take to shows. right now im doing pretty good with the whole show bird thing only keeping around one not for show breed. i was just wondering because i was thinking about purchasing a small flock
I have some light sussex cockerals that I would rather give away than to cull. They are about 9 months old.
original from Ideal
offspring from original
I love mine. They are even better layers than what I expected.

Just wanted to put some updated pics of my Coronation Split Sussex pair. They are huge for only being 15 weeks old. I didn't realize that this breed was such a large bird. I am excited to start getting some pure Coronation in May.
Not the best pictures, but they don't seem to like the camera much. I can't wait until they are mature, so I can see their full potential.

Wow, the Coronation are big. Just ordered some Speckled from Mt Healthy. Love the look and that they are decent layers too. Can't wait!

They are big, it's hard to tell really how big they are in just a pic, but the roo is huge. I was shocked at how fast they mature. I love the Speckled too. They are really a very pretty bird. I like all the Sussex birds.

There really are few that even resemble the standard. They need some work to be show quality.
