Do you know about Swedish Flower Hens, Skånsk Blommehöna? These beautiful birds evolved naturally in Sweden, living off the land without human influence. Skånsk Blommehöna aka Swedish Flower Hens lay cream-colored eggs and are good foragers, good predator avoiders, and oh so pretty. They come with or without “poofs” as our daughter calls them.
They are seasonal layers — which makes sense given their history — so don’t expect winter eggs from them. They also don’t tend to go broody, which would explain their sinking numbers. Add some to your flock and help reestablish the breed. Or just add them because they are so pretty.
