    The Svart Hona (Swedish Black Hen) Thread!

    He is handsome but mine do not have feathered legs or feet. I don't think I've heard of this on any Svarthöna. Is this the only one? He has a really sweet look. Does he have white leakage and red leakage or is it just the way I'm seeing it on my small mobile device screen? @Overo Mare...

    I realize this thread hasn't had any activity in over a year now, but I'm hoping someone familiar with the Svarthöna breed will chime in. I recently had a hawk attack my free ranging Svarthöna rooster and thankfully he wasn't killed. The next day the hawk came back and was on the ground beside...

    Thank you for replying. Imagine my surprise when my Turken/Cochin cross with bright pink but NOT red comb and wattles started to lay 3 days ago, only one day after her first squat.

    The Svart Hona (Swedish Black Hen) Thread!

    I hatched a pair of these in mid August. I am really enjoying them, especially the pullet. She's very sweet and enjoys human affection. The cockerel is gentle and very handsome. Since we can't go by comb color, what is the average POL age for pullets? Thank you. I can't wait to read through this...
