What should I cross my Swedish Flower hen to?

[Sherry Janis]

I have a pretty Swedish Flower Hen hen. The Roos I have are:
Black Copper Marans
Blue Copper Marans
Blue Ameraucana
Those are breeding age. In the next few months these roos will be breeding age:
Lavender orp
Mottled Lavender Orp

What should I expect if I cross the flowe hen to one of these roos? Has anyone bred a flower
Hen with something other than a flower roo? Thanks in advance!

What is your outcome of the crossing's goal?

I'm curious about your goal as well. I've never had Swedish Flowers, and I know they're great layers. Are you trying to get a variety of offspring or are you looking for particular colors, patterns, characteristics, etc?

Don't cross it! Get a SFH ROO.

I crossed my Swedish Hen with a cream legbar. Produced beautiful hens and the rooster turned out like nothing you can imagine. His huge comb covered his one eye and his main and crown were bright orange.
