Siegfried was born at Gut Aiderbichl Deggendorf. His mother Greta had to be evacuated from a suburb of Deggendorf a few weeks earlier, as the flood of the century threatened to break the dikes in Deggendorf in 2013. Together with other cows and the farmer Edeltraud, she was housed at Gut Aiderbichl. On the day of the evacuation, Edeltraud approached us with a request: "May my cows and I stay with you? Hard to refuse such a request and so Siegfried was born in our care and may stay forever.
