We now have our Swedish flower rooster and I’m eventually going to breed with Swedish flower hens but right now we are barnyard mixed I was just wondering if anyone had any Swedish flower crosses and what they looked like?! I’d love to see some pictures!
I just am so excited I had to show off our new and only boy! My son has decided to call him Cap as in Captain america or Steve 😂 but he is around 17-19 weeks, so friendly and non aggressive and so beautiful! He’s a Swedish Flower Rooster I can’t wait to see what beautiful crosses and chicks him...
There was a teeny tiny egg in the coop this morning! All our birds are young and we only have one bird, an Ameraucana, who’s been laying for about a week. Her first egg was 33 grams and her third/most recent is 41g.
The tiny egg is 9 grams!!! It’s smaller than a quail egg!
This egg is brown...
Hello! I purchased two straight run Swedish Flower (SF) chicks from a local farm/breeder. They are 8 weeks old.
There have quite developed combs and waddles relative to other breeds I have (NH red and orps) but I see mature SF hens also have quite large red combs/waddles. I looked for saddle...
I have heard mixed information and was hoping someone here would know. Someone told me that you should never breed a crested swedish flower chicken to another crested swedish flower. Very little info to back this up was provided. Does anyone have information about this and why I was told it...
Hi all! So I have a Swedish Flower that is 3 weeks old. This bird is SO sweet and always jumps on my lap and takes a nap. I’m really hoping she’s a hen because I’m not allowed any roosters in my HOA. Apparently this breed is fairly rare because I can’t find much information on sexing them, so I...
I have 4 baby Indian runners. I have 7 week chicks but they’re growing fast. By the end of October they’ll be about 12 weeks. At that time I have 2 chocolate Indian Runners- Katie and Mathilde who will be ready to go out. Anyone have experience to know whether chickens would be nice to ducks of...
I know they are still young. But what do you guys think. The first is a Swedish flower, the second is a Wyandotte, 3 is a blue partridge Brahma, 4 is a Wyandotte. Number four is a week or so younger then the others. There are 2 pictures of 1-3 and only one picture of 4
Hello!!
I have two hens, a Swedish Flower hen and a barred rock hen that are just gonna be too big to keep with my little birds. I have a little spot in my coop I could keep them in the morning and at night that could hopefully get them used to my other hens and the other big hens to them.

Hello all! I have a little emergency and came here for advice. This morning I went out to check in some chicks who I had put outside about a week ago. They had been doing really, really well even as of last night, but this afternoon I went to check on them again and on of my Swedish Flower...
These are my two Swedish Flower Hens and I’m wondering if anyone would have any idea as to what idea they’d look like when they got big! They’re already sweethearts and I’m so excited for when them get bigger.
I just got two lovely little Swedish Flower Hens And was wondering if anyone had any idea how to tell was colors chicks would grow into when the get older! SFH have so many different colors but I never see any comparison of chick to adult coloring! If anyone had any to share I’d be so grateful...
I have the opportunity to acquire a Swedish Flower Hen pullet and I’m strongly leaning toward bringing her home. But before I do, I’d love to hear from any of you who already have one or more SFHs. What do you find their personalities to be like? What about egg production? What color are the...

Belgian D'Anver (Lavender preferred but will consider other colors)
Blue Bantam Cochin
Swedish Isbar
Preferably over 8 weeks to a year old, but will...
Has anyone had Swedish flower hens? If so, are more docile or skittish? I'm planning to get some but I need to know if they are docile or not. I would love to hear your experiences with these birds!
Hey guys. I got this crested Swedish flower chick today. Not sure on exact age but probably between 6-8 weeks old. Can anyone help me sex him/her? I've really been dying for one of these and this is the only one they had so I took a chance.( Plus she only charged me $4) I suspect he's a he but...
