jbarrett, That's Fantastic!! You are to be commended for your enthusiasm regarding SFH that we all love so much. Good JOB!! Keep up the good work! Great photos, too and beautiful pairs of SFH.

Seabrightsrock, beautiful hens and great looking roo, too!

Took some updated pics today. Seabrightsrock, Beautiful birds!! Those two hens I do believe are the prettiest I've seen! Who did you get your SFH from?

My white Silkie was the same way. I finally took two small bowls and put food and water where she could reach them from the nest. My black Silkie comes off the nest 2ce a day - perhaps a slightly smarter bird - LOL. All 5 of her eggs are looking good and are due starting tomorrow (though I've...

WOW!! I do believe those two hens of yours are the prettiest I've seen yet!! Who was your source for SFH?

Thanks for those tips on brooder use. Appreciate any and all suggestions.

Friday was hatch day with the 8 SFH eggs I put under a broody banty. She was in a big brooder box with a nest that we had set up in our mudroom. Three chicks hatched on Friday and one egg had first signs of pipping. The hen continued to sit on the eggs after the three hatched so I left them...

Hatch Day!! Two out! two more pipping, 8 eggs in clutch !! My little red Welsummer/cochin banty-bator is doing a fine job.The two hatched are yellow and bluish grey so probably will turn out blue? my favorite SFH color. So exciting!!!

Oh, so sorry! Hopefully, you will have a very sucessful hatch with those 28 eggs.

No broody SFH but I have a broody banty that's sitting on a clutch of 8 fertile SFH eggs plus I'm collecting more eggs from my trio of SFH. Anyone in Northern Wisconsin or Minn. or U.P. of Michigan interested in chicks or fertile eggs? Photos of my trio of SFH below:

Nice website. Very informative SFH page. Good job!!

Oh! Not AandJ Farms? Sorry! They're in northern Kentucky, too. Can't remember why I thought it was you, KYTinpusher. What breed is that roo on your avitar? Handsome guy!

My thoughts exactly Bulldogma! LOL!! The first day I moved the birds, no eggs! But today we have one! We've been checking every 1/2 hour! Wondering just how long the banty will stay broody?

Here's my trio of Swedish flower hens from a hatch last Feb (2012) from KYTinpusher. I have them in a breeding pen and I'm going to collect eggs daily. I have a little mixed breed banty hen who has gone very broody. We have our big brooder set up in our mudroom for her and I'm hoping she will...

Vicki W - forgot to mentio -n I have a second batch of SFH's 9 weeks old and 4 out of 5 are roosters. I'd be happy to rehome them for free if you know anyone who might be interested in them, take one or take all.

VickiW - I, too live in N. Wisc and my SFH's are doing pretty good with egg production. I only have the two but get 5 eggs per week from each of my girls. I can actually tell the eggs apart. Pewter's are a darker brown than Helga's. They started laying at 20 weeks, which was early July and are...

I have a beautiful blue hen like yours and a roo almost identical to the one Muzzy posted plus a darker hen with a crest. I took 11 fertile eggs from this trio to a friend with an incubator and 8 of the 11 eggs hatched on Aug. 16th. The friend kept 3 chicks and those in the photo are the ones...

Congrats on your 7 chicks. Nice variety of colors. Update us with photos please showing how yours feather out. Thanks for sharing your photos.

CasieD- I'm near Hayward. A swap would be great! I'll look forward to seeing how your hatch goes. Good luck!
