Buff Sussex



Buff sussex are a relatively new colour in the sussex family. The colouring can range from a rich deep buff to a light buff. I find that the roosters are often darker. The buff sussex are a great laying bird averaging around 200 tinted, good sized eggs per season. Buff sussex are an alert breed that can succussfully be used for both meat and egg production.

Buff sussex are proving to be very popular. Sussex are a reasnobly quiet breed, with a deep crow. Buffs in our house hold are one of the favourites.

The buff sussex make a lovely pet and an eccelent all round breed. Buffs weigh on average 3-4kgs.
