Would love to see some pics!

Finally some pics. My girls are 18 weeks now but not at POL yet. Still waiting. I have three of them. I tried to post pics of them at a few different ages but recent pics and angles and they are all sisters which is amazing but the three are all good examples of the different coloring. Mine do not have any plumage on their heads. The lightest one and the black one have the deepest red combs and waddles which is telling me that they might lay before the light gray and white one but she seems to be my lead pullet and the lead hen of the flock of my nine hens so far. We will see how this turns out.

This Pullet is 9 1/2 weeks old and likes to check out (under heavy supervision) the GSD/Retriever that also lives with us.

My lovelies at 30 weeks. I don't have the white one, he became dinner, very good I might add.

My new addition for 2021:

This is the Wyandotte cross chick I thought I would grow out, just wanted to see what it would look like.

Are getting chicks from her for 2021?

I have to admit I'm very impressed with the way Swedish Flower Hens mature from chicks to adults. With each stage of development I feel like I have a new chicken cause there feather patterns keep changing till there adults. There color and patterns are impressive.
