    Crested Swedish Flower chicken breeding

    The Swedish Flower Hen breed, unlike Crested Cream Legbars, Polish and others, is highly susceptible to having vaulted skulls with crested x crested breedings. Selling chicks or eggs from crested x crested breedings is a sure-fire way to get a bad reputation among breed enthusiasts. This breed...

    I use an electronic medium, but do the art by hand. It's like painting using my computer.

    I'm sorry but he doesn't look like a Swedish Flower at all to me. Not only is the lack of flowering an indicator, but his body shape and comb shape are not indicative of a Swede. I'm so sorry! To me he looks more like a Black Copper Marans without the leg feathering. What other breeds does this...

    @esme13 Sometimes it can take about 6 weeks to see the first signs of a crest. Other times it is much faster. :D

    Woohooo! So far I've had a very happy New Year... just figured out I have 2 more pullets and 2 less cockerels than I thought I did. (Took me long enough!)

    @Leahs Mom - Congrats on the egg!!! @dlcoops - Congrats on a great hatch so far!! Your chicks are beautiful. Don't give them medicated feed, please - - just regular chick starter. This breed doesn't tolerate the medicated stuff well. Keep an eye out for signs of cocci, and treat with Corid...

    LOL - yes - it looks like you may have all boys. If there is a silver lining, it looks like the boy above could be a snoleopard. If so, he's a keeper! This one is Melabella's snoleopard roo from my stock. Can't wait to see how your chick matures!
