Danish hen
The Danish hen (Danish: ''Dansk landhøne'') is a chicken landrace native to Denmark. It is the only native chicken landrace in the country and perhaps in all of Europe.
== History ==
Archaeological remains have revealed that the particular breed of The Danish hen, has been kept as livestock poultry in the area we now know as Denmark for more than 2000 years. It is believed, that chickens were introduced to the Scandinavian region by germanic tribes from the south, about 400 BC.
In the beginning of the 1800s, various foreign poultry and livestock breeds were introduced in Danish agriculture on a broad scale and The Danish hen was disfavoured and often interbred. The Danish hen was in danger of extinction, but in the years 1877-78, a few dedicated and foresighted farmers bought and collected whatever they could get of Danish hens with a provable genetic ancestry. In 1878 the association of ''Landhønseringen'' was initiated with teacher N. Jensen Badskær as chairman and in 1901, the first standard of The Danish hen breed emerged. The Danish hen plays no economic or productional role at all and is exclusively kept by hobby breeders. The association of ''Specialklubben for Danske Landhøns'' is now officially working for mediating and preserving knowledge about this particular breed.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Racens historie (of the breed ) )〕
