Hatchery sold this to me as a Swedish blue hen - says it is an isbar & ayam cemani mix and will lay a green egg- I havnt found a lot of information on this breed so I have no idea how to sex - I’m assuming comb size? So what do you think pullet or roo? Only 5 week The comb seems small but tail feathers are kinda long and pointed ? But not sure if that matters 🤣

Looks like a pullet so far to me. It's not a breed, it's a name that someone slapped on a mix of two trendy breeds. Not even why they would call it Swedish or blue when it's half an Indonesian breed, lays green eggs, and is black in color 🧐
Here’s what the website said🤷‍♀️ ..I don’t really care if it’s not a true breed or not tho ..she/he is unique ☺️ ..but Hopfully you guys can help me sex 😂I’ll post up dates :) oh and I named her olive 🤓

That makes a bit more sense. Svart Hona are also known as Swedish Black Hens so the naming is more clear. I have to wonder if Swedish poultry enthusiasts would dislike the naming. Even if they're made with Swedish breeds, they were developed in the United States so having the prefix of "Swedish" is a bit odd. Either way, she'll be a cute little bird and hopefully lay some colored eggs! :D
