Muvver hen Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 Some of you will remember that i had a single chick survive a hatch in the summer,well update!!!Lonely is a HEN,had my first egg from her yesterday.The 2 silkie chicks that i bought in as companions for her unfortunatly are both cock birds,so will have to go soon.I would like to get another light sussex hen as a companion for her,i live in southampton,so does anyone know where i can get one of around 24 weeks?

Valkyrie Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 There's a place in Alton that breed Sussex's, but I haven't been there, so don't know much about the place with regard to how they look after their birds. http://www.justsussex.com/id8.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 You're welcome - and if you go can you let us know what you think of the place (you never know who will want another Sussex ). Oh Lewis is quick off the mark for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muvver hen Posted December 14, 2009 Author Share Posted December 14, 2009 Thought that i'd phone them after i find homes for my lovely silkie cocks(dream on!) New year should be a good time,i have a friend who lives near there in Ropley so will visit if i can and will let you know what the place is like.I really like the look of the bantams too.
