Konstantin | Chicken

Konstantin is a broiler chicken - In chicken fattening, a distinction is made between conventional floor, free-range and organic farming. In conventional farming, broilers are kept in barns. Austria is the leader in terms of space, as Austrian chickens have up to 40 percent more space than the European average. In free-range systems, the animals…

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…

Ginja | Chicken

Ginja 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…

Andreas | Chicken

Andreas is a two-year-old cockerel and lived together with four other cockerels in a stable. They were threatened with slaughter if they had not been given a new forever home before being killed. Now they are at Gut Aiderbichl in Carinthia, where they live protected among many other roosters and hens.

Kerstin | Chicken

Melina | Chicken

Google | Chicken

Harry | Chicken

Henry the cockerel hatched from the egg in an incubator. The rooster had to leave and was entrusted to the farmer's wife on a large farm. All seemed well until the neighbors in the area complained that Henry and his friend William started crowing at four in the morning. The cockerels had to leave to…

Henry | Chicken

Henry had to leave his coop in an urban area because he was crowing. Well, that's just the way roosters are. There were two options for the young rooster Henry: either he would be euthanized or he could become an Aiderbichler. The latter saved Henry's life and we enjoy Henry's crowing every day with all…

Henriette | Chicken

An Aiderbichler woman turned to us in despair. There were two silkie cocks and a hen in her household. Despite all her attempts, she could neither keep the animals nor give them to good hands. With a heavy heart, she wrote us an email and asked us for help. Fortunately, we were able to agree…

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.

Bronx | Chicken

Bronx is one of 22 chickens that we were able to take in. An animal lover lived with ponies and chickens on a farm that she now has to leave. She asked us to take in her charges. We tried to find space and were able to take in all 22 of her chickens. The…
