@a3riverschick
Karen,
I'm so sorry to hear that you're selling off your birds, but of course in life there are seasons of change. I get that. I have come to think of you as the Sussex expert (and I know others feel the same). You can always stop by this thread to get your virtual 'chicken fix' and share your wisdom. It would be greatly appreciated. Best of luck in whatever life has in store for you next.

As far as the birds, I hope you find the perfect match...... and I also hope that person continues to share pics & stories here. That way if any of us want a quality light sussex in the future, we'll know who to ask.

We love Sussex as well as breeding and showing. I am not sure we have the space, though. I will send you a PM.

I posted this in a separate thread as I didn't know one already exists. I just hatched 12 Light Sussex chicken and these are my first chicken of this breed, so I had some questions.. Is it possible to wing sex them when they are young? At what age do they start laying eggs? I have some that hatched with black on their heads and wings, is this an indication of something?
