I got Swedish flower hens from two different reputable breeders in the same year. I look for chicken breeds based on temperament. I wanna flock that gets along as best chickens can. The Internet is full of how wonderful these chickens are. This breed is great with humans – they are curious and helpful in the garden and cute, but they beat each other up mercilessly and terrorize other breeds. Interestingly, if one of them is beating up another chicken, they all come running to make it a gang event. My Orpingtons and Jersey Giants simply avoid them because they are so annoying.
I dislike this breed so much, I had to share it.
