I think I see a couple of blue feathers, so she could be a very light splash. However, I believe there have been reports of recessive white in the stock from GFF. You can test breed her to know for sure. Breed her to a black cock. If all of the offspring are blue, she is splash. If the offspring...

Oh, man!!! :th I promised my son I would try to find him some. Even though I swore I wouldn't hatch anymore this year :oops:, do you sell and ship hatching eggs? Are these from Trish's line by chance?

Under a half hour left on these. @Jessimom has the high bid at $7

These are pure Svarthöna (Swedish Black Hen) from GFF and ECF lines. The woolly variant is a natural variation found in a limited number of landrace Svarthöna. The woolly gene, as it is referred to in Sweden, is the same as the Silky gene and is recessive. I have 2 woolly cocks over 5 standard...
