Swedish Flower Hen Thread

I have a small incubator, so a friend gave me 4 eggs.

The 2 tan ones to the left are SFH.

This is the stock the SFH eggs are from.

Keep us posted! Hope they hatch, that flock is lovely!

Good Luck,
MB

Good luck! What are the other two eggs?

barnyard mixes. I am hoping the green is a frizzle mix that lays green eggs and looks like my avitar.

Here are the only 2 I have left from my first purchase of SFH. I did just make an order for a dozen hatching eggs from a different breeder and lines so hope this will be a better outcome.

I also put in a long egg- double yolk, may not be fertile, and DY don't usually hatch but I had the space.

Guys I wanted to post this pic of these cockerels, showing non blue bl+/bl+, Blue Bl/bl+ and Splash Bl/Bl all of them have the same genotype other than those black pigment diluters, their genotype should be eb/eb s+/s+ Mh/Mh Co/Co mo/mo

One SFH egg is a go! the other had a blood ring on day 3 the green is too dark to tell, and the white one was not fertile.

Those were from a girl friend's pen, my long egg from my batch was not fertile, candled after day 3 but it was a double yolk.

Super excited. Picked up 20 eggs today.

What kind of incubator do you have there?
