These little ones are Buff Orpington X Light Sussex. In a few more days I'll 'hopefully' be hatching some SL BL & GL Wyandottes, very excited :-D

Oooh :shock:

They sound like they would be nice & large & fluffy when they grow up :lol:

Was the mother the Buff or the Sussex?

Its a good design and the right set up with the heat at only 1 end so you have the cool zone which is important in a good brooder


Yeah spot on Bill, the days have been quite hot here recently and they escape over to the cool zone as the temp rises. Definitely a must.

Fluffy indeed Chicka-Dee;) Their mum is the Buff Orpington and she requires regular trimming around her vent due to her fluff...or it can get real messy :roll:
