Please understand we are not able to refund any orders/pre-orders. The only time, a refund applies is when we are not able to deliver the product (Ex. theft, fertility issues, hatch rate issue, fire, flock demise, bird illness, death of breeder, etc). There is a $5 fee for each bird, each day that is here past the deadline. No exceptions. You must order a minimum of 5 chicks and no more than 10. If you want to order more than 10 chicks, please reach out to me first at (352) 467-2600 (leave a text-message please).

About Swedish Flower Hens
Native of Sweden and imported into the U.S in 2010, the Swedish Flower has become very popular due to its joyful appearance and temperament. The Swedish Flower comes in a variety of colors. Words can’t describe the infinity of possibilities! Every hatch is a surprise!!The base colors can range from black, blue, yellow, and red. The feather pattern is millefleur (thousand flowers), the feathers are white-tipped. The combinations are many and varied – black/white, white/red, and a pattern similar to the Speckled Sussex hen.
Birds can be crested, tasseled, or not. Our bloodlines carry both the crested and non-crested genes, so you can potentially hatch both appearance from our flock's eggs.
The rarest coloration pattern is called ‘Snow Leopard.’ Some of the white tips are replaced by black tips giving an overall picture of gold/white/black markings named after the rare Snow Leopard.
Swedish Flowers are very friendly and social. Speaking from my own experience with this breed, it is one of my favorites in terms of temperament. They are calm, confident, and poised. The females are extremely curious and inquisitive. They love the outdoors and exploring the world around them, but they also bear confinement well.
They enjoy human interaction. They are curious and love to explore the world around them. Hens lay a decent amount of eggs per week. Egg size is large and extra-large and of cream color.
The hens will lay anywhere between 180-200 eggs per year. They are very hardy and tolerate a wide variety of weather conditions.
The Swedish Flower Hen has not been bred to any written standard of perfection (THANK GOD!!), so they have not been recognized by the American Standard of Perfection (APA).
