Got another one.. 7 week old Swedish flower hens (or roosters)

[Meni120]

I have the two Swedish flower hens, just over 7 weeks. The dark one has thicker legs and is overall larger so I’m concerned about the sex if anyone can shed some insight! Both are very friendly and easily handled

Both look like pullets to me.

Also they aren't Swedish Flower Hens, not sure what they are.

How can you be sure they're not Swedish flower hens? They come in all different colors.

Oh, I didn't know that. Sorry.

I just wanted to know if you knew something I didn't! But yes, SFHs can came in many colors. Not all are spangled or speckled.

Thanks for the feedback!
As long as they are pullets I am okay with whatever they may be “breed” wise! They won’t be bred from.

Agree they are both pullets. Swedish Flower Hens are known as a “land race” which means there is a lot of variation in their coloring as well as body types. Some can even have crests.
They are though a true breed.

Where did they come from? Just curious.

That's a lot of colors!

They came from Meyer Hatchery, I was looking for some non-solid color patterns!
