The sheep Adrian, Alissa, Dea, Eva, Fabian-Mattheo, Martina and Werner were born Aiderbichler. They and their parents belonged to a very special breed of sheep: the so-called Zackel sheep, which originate from the Hungarian Puszta and were rescued into modern times with a great deal of effort and ingenuity. Many breeders, including Gery Keszler, the founder and long-time organizer of the Life Ball, are working to preserve this breed. When Gery Keszler's herd became too large, he asked us for help and so the mothers came into our care and gave them all the gift of life at Gut Aiderbichl.

Lidwina | Sheep

In our fast-moving times, where efficiency and utility are paramount, many breeds have lost their importance. Many of them have been replaced by high-performance breeds and have almost disappeared from the scene. This was also the case with the Zackel sheep, which could only be saved by the efforts of individualists. Lidwina's owner, Gery Keszler,…

Franz | Sheep

The white mountain sheep Sisi and Franz were confiscated by the veterinary office due to circumstances contrary to animal welfare. The sheep were placed on a farm, but could not stay there for life. Sisi and Franz also lacked proof of origin, so it would have been impossible for private owners to keep the animals…

Zucker | Sheep

Cinnamon, sugar and honey, are three Cameroon sheep and were confiscated by the veterinary office. The sheep have been settling in at Gut Aiderbichl in Deggendorf for a few weeks now and we think they have become happy sheep.

Lanzelot | Sheep

Lilian and Lanzelott were to be slaughtered. An animal lover became aware of the two little camera sheep and wanted to prevent this because she simply felt sorry for the young sheep.

Larry | Sheep

An animal lover contacted us looking for help. She found out about a little ram that had not been accepted by its mother. The shepherd thought it was nature and made no effort to help the little sheep. So a lady took care of him and raised the little lamb with a bottle. But it…

Anna | Sheep

When this call for help reached us, we couldn't believe our ears or our eyes. On a farm in the Graz area, we discovered an animal farm that was unsurpassed in its cruelty. In the midst of animal carcasses, 30 sheep, 1 horse, two donkeys and a pig had to eke out an existence. The…
