angie39 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Hi, I am new to posting but have been browsing the forum for a few months after getting two bluebelles from fluffy chick. After having them for a couple of months the morehens disease struck so I got a light suffolk and a sussex, after a few days of looking at each other they decided they wanted to be together and flew over the divider in the walk in run and have been a happy little flock ever since The bluebells are called Tikka and cinnamon and the suffolk Jasmine and lastly at the bottom of the pecking order but the most adorable is Nigella. just thought I would introduce myself and the girls and look forward to getting lots of advice from all the long time chicken keepers on her Angie xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chortle Chook Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Oh yes, lets have pictures if only so we can all learn the difference between a light sussex and a pied suffolk. Both sound very pretty indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

percy049 Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 I love Buff Sussex! Are the photos too big? they are on mine, even though I've changed them to medium on photobucket. Sorry! The Pied Suffolk (Lillie) is the one at the front (sorry, I dont have a very good picture of her by herself) Light Sussex (Laura) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
