Coronation Sussex Bantams

The first Coronation Sussex large fowl was bred in the UK in 1936 and presented to the King on his coronation, the colour emulating the Union flag: red, white and blue. The plumage of the Coronation Sussex is identical to the Light Sussex except that the markings in hackle, wings and tail are a clear lavender blue throughout.

The Morton Estate line of Coronation Sussex Bantams are a total outcross to any other coronation sussex that you will find in Australia, they are not bred down from large Sussex and do not contain any large fowl genetics. They were first produced here in 2006 and have been very well received in the show pens, as you will see from our show results further down the page.

Our Coronation Sussex are a medium sized fowl, officially called a bantam, but for most people a bantam is a small bird. Don't be fooled by a Sussex Bantam, they are very similar to the common IsaBrown layer hen but with much more eye appeal and personality ! They make excellent broodies as they have wonderful maternal qualities.
