Polly | Chicken

Polly was turned out because she had served her time as a laying hen. Laying hens are turned out when they are just under one and a half years old, which means that they are slaughtered or, if they are lucky, can continue their lives elsewhere - even if they don't perform. Consumers decide on…

Celine | Chicken

Hen Celine and 24 other laying hens came to Gut Aiderbichl Deggendorf at the age of one. They were no longer laying and should have been slaughtered. The consumer determines the life and death of the animals without being aware of it.

Elser | Chicken

It is not uncommon for the animals to be purchased as chicks. Usually ordered from a "breeder". However, it often happens that you don't just get hens. And since roosters are not known to lay eggs, people have no use for them other than to end up as soup chickens. This is exactly what happened…

Bud Spencer | Chicken

Animal lovers decided to keep chickens years ago. Again and again, there were young animals that could stay on the farm. But now there was a surplus of males, as there were sometimes roosters involved in the brooding. The animal lovers asked for help and introduced us to Terence Hill and Bud Spencer. Both are…

Marco | Chicken

As is often the case with roosters, they fight with each other because only the strongest can breed. And as this can often lead to serious injuries, Martin and Marco's owners wanted to prevent anything worse from happening. So they asked us to take in the pretty cockerels.

Marco | Chicken

An Aiderbichler turned to us for help. His son-in-law was the proud owner of 40 chickens. Among them, however, were nine roosters. The boys were making life very difficult for each other and unfortunately some of the cockerels had to go. The man asked us to take them in because slaughtering them was out of…
