The Sussex thread!

[Chickanmanfromarkansas]

I posted on another thread but I'm going to put it here also. Is there any Brown Sussex still around? If so, who has them. If not, how would a person go about recreating the brown variety?

I would like to know if anyone has had success feather sexing day olds?

Also check out the American Sussex Association it is now FREE to join

, just go to join page and fill out the application and email it to use. And the cool thing is that you DO NOT have to own Sussex to be a member, But once you get some you will be HOOKED.......

Anyone have a line on someone selling Speckled Sussex eggs? I haven't any luck contacting former auctioners, websites, etc. and I'd really like to get a few gals for our farm after seeing them at the Fair this year.

Google "Coronation Sussex," for more information, if you are interested in the history.​

How old were your Coronation and lights when they started to lay?
