I think they are the prettiest SFH's I have seen.

Lol yeah the big olandsk roo is trying to perfect his crow. It looks like you have a pair there. The SFH in the back looks like a boy and he looks like he is going to turn out great. He looks like he is getting some red on his back.

I really need to find my camera and post photos of my babies I hatched from you! They are absolutely adorable I was really happy to have such a good hatch.

The Olandsk Dwarfs are actually an old breed from the island of Olandsk in Sweden. This is a landrace bird - developed naturally over the years by natural selection rather than breeding for a particular standars. Some have yellow legs, some have white, some have a straight comb, others more of a rose comb. The birds in the US were imported by Greenfire, and they say that they only brought in straight-combed birds. I would love to get my hands on a rose combed olandsk! At one time they were very rare, and may still be fairly rare in Sweden, but I think the numbers are increasing now that Greenfire introduced them to the US. I know that I have increased the world's population of Olandsk by about 30 chicks so far!

Looking for some hatching eggs... purebred of course... send out emails and not heard back. Got a broody I need to get some good eggs under before it gets too cool and might as well make them a breed I really want.

Anyone? PM me if you are able and willing with your price. Only need 6+ or so. Going under a Black Australorp hen.


ETA... disregard. I did get a email back. I just wasn't aware of it. I'll hopefully be in the Olandsk Dwarf club in a couple weeks. lol

I have some birds that look identical to the breed, however they are not, or I highly doubt it.

They don't look like something else to me... where did you get them?
