Swedish Flower Hen is a hen? A roo?

I thought so too, but I don't know the breed, now I WANT ONE...darn chicken math

You thought those saddle feathers were a little narrow?
Hmmmm. This breed is super yummy in my opinion. Cold-hardy and all a little different looking. AND so friendly and sweet. I only have one but I’d like to have more.

Have you heard of Jubilee Orpington chickens? I want one of those too!!

I hope it turns out to be a Pullet. Looking at pictures of pullets, they do have fancy saddle feathers on the pictures, so most likely will turn out to be a pullet....I'm jealous.

I haven’t. But maybe I shouldn’t look them up... I can’t have anymore chickens. I have seven already and it may not be allowed in my town at all.

this is what a SFH roo's saddle feathers look like

and your girl's comb says pullet too - my SFH cocks have been apparent from the comb by week 4 at the latest.

I think you have a beautiful pullet there.

Thanks for the pic. I was liking the small comb, but not depending on it. Your rooster is beautiful! Maybe he and Daisy can get together one day

Maybe he and Daisy can get together one day

great idea, and he can fly, but not across the Atlantic

What’s the deal here. I will buy him a first class ticket. Is there an airline he prefers?
