Speckled Sussex chickens

 Image Number D4834-1

Allowing chickens to roam freely in a backyard or pasture can be a risk to their health. Make sure chickens like these "born for the camera" speckled Sussex (three in front) have a safe place to stay. Preventing contact with wild birds as well as keeping them safe from predators by constructing a solid, well thought out coop should be included in your preparations for a backyard flock.
