Coronation Sussex Bantams

The coronation sussex in both bantam and large form are very rare in Australia. The plumage is very similar to the Light sussex, (light sussex are the most well known and most popular of the sussex breeds) except for where the black appears in the light sussex it is a grey/lavender colour. Coronation sussex bantams are very reliable layers, the parrent stock seldom go broody, and are a lovely addition to backyard or show poultry alike.
