Title: light sussex lf day old chicks
Post by: PaulJill on August 02, 2017, 06:45:33 pm

Hi, we are looking for a supplier of day old light sussex lf. Does anyone know where we can get some, we live near Scarborough north yorkshire. They are for the table so if you know another tasty bird at day old that can be found round about us we would love to know. Thank you, happy hens Paul & Jill.

There is quite a few LS on Preloved.
But you may have left it a bit late as most have stopped hatching now.

Will you be keeping Pullets back for eggs (they are very good layers) or culling the lot?
If it's just meat your looking for there is better choices in hybrid broilers (free ranging types).

Good luck.
