Claim: Swedish Flower Hen is a traditional farmyard breed of chicken that was close to extinction in the 1970s before a breeders' association ( activities centered on a single, specific breed) was formed.
Evidence: The Blommehöna is a traditional farmyard breed of chicken from southern Sweden; the Swedish name indicates that it comes from the landskap of Skåne. The Swedish Flower Hen, Swedish: Skånsk Blommehöna, is an endangered traditional Swedish breed of domestic chicken. It came close to extinction in the 1970s; recovery was based on three flocks found in the villages of Esarp [], Tofta and Vomb [], all in Skåne. A breeders' association, the Svenska Lanthönsklubben [], was formed. Breed clubs are associations or clubs with activities centered on a single, specific breed of a particular species of domesticated animal.
