    Yeah, odd that there isn’t. I know nothing about SFH genealogy, but it is strange that out of all the genes, the straight comb prevailed. Same with the Icelandic. That mix would certainly be interesting, quite the catch for the cold climate free ranging peeps as well

    Oh, poor Piglet:hmm. Hope she bounces back after a cozy sleepover. Those temps really need to return to normal

    Oh he’s STUNNING :love :eek: ! Shame he’s going to be losing some of it. One would have thought that SFHs would be better suited for, well…Swedish weather. But a single comb is a single comb, I guess. At least you’ve got this gorgeous photo (and many others I imagine) to remember his glorious...

    Ah, I see. Apologies if I have you confused with another member, but now that you mention the single combed birds, I do remember a gorgeous SFH cockerel that you had posted about. Or at least I think that was you… :oops: I really hope he isn’t losing asignificant part of his comb and wattles...

    Oh, very sorry to hear :hugs . I know you mostly keep pea combed birds, which I would have thought would not be so susceptible to frostbite, but it seems this cold is merciless

    Well, every chicken of mine that you know is dead, other than Ursula. Predator attacks, disease, a few sudden/natural deaths, the culling of two males, and more predator attacks have left us with 9 LFs and 4 bantams in total

    Ah, the notorious black flies! The black fly song has become a bit of an addiction; I’ve sung it to the chickens more than once :p . They liked it too!

    Apologies, my cold climate ignorance is clearly showing :oops: . You’re correct, never heard of that before, will search it up immediately (I’m assuming the FB link is relevant, but I can’t access it as I don’t have FB)

    Glad to read that things are calming down a bit (though -14C sounds like a totally different world to me:eek:). Hopefully it’s smooth sailing till spring now. Only one and a half months away. Yeah, it’s terrible, we are definitely not prepared for this kind of weather. It seems I have spoken...

    Yeah, with so many things going on, it’s hard to hear about everything. Quite similarly, I would not have known about this polar storm that is hitting the US and Canada if it were not for BYC. Everyday I log on, it seems scarier and scarier. I think I saw -40C on one thread. Once again, stay...

    Stay safe peeps. Wish we could send some of our temps over there. Hoping it passes soon, and without any losses for any of you. Maybe from next week :p . This week, we had extreme flooding, and at least one casualty as a result

    Oh, I have no idea. Never weighed him, to be honest. I think that’s how you tell classes apart, right? He was pretty small though. About half the size of that silkie mix, maybe a bit larger
