The Sussex chicken is a dual-purpose utility breed and relatively easy to keep. Sussex chickens are upright, alert, and usually docile. Our hatching eggs are collected daily from our breeding flocks. All eggs selected are good shapes, good size and fresh! The eggs are unwashed, and we recommend for you to let the eggs rest for 24 hours once you’ve received the eggs in the post. This allows the eggs to settle before placing them in the incubator or under a broody hen.
