Chicken Kitty Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 A quick question..... If you were given the choice of Sussex bantams or Pekins which would you go for? I have read that both are lovely and friendly I know that (unfortunately) both can be broody....not sure which one tends to be less broody though!? Can anyone recommend one or the other.....or both!?

Plum Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Got a pekin love her. Bantam sussex next on list. Sorry no help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zakjon-98 Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I have Sussex and would definitely recommend them. Great layers (6 a week) and really friendly. Although I don't have pekins from posts and books I think they would be more broody. My Sussex have not gone broody yet. Pekins are top of my wish list!

poppy ben grace Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Hi, if you have the room why not get both! Sorry, not very helpful. I have 3 pekins and adore them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparkysmum Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 If you're looking for eggs then I would say Sussex. I have a pekin who looks adorable, but is a feisty little madam, is frequently broody & doesn't exactly lay for Scotland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
