Chick hatching at phaeno

Chick hatching in the exhibition.

It's chirping time again at phaeno. Chick hatching has a long tradition at phaeno. It is particularly exciting to watch the eggshell being broken. It is pecked from the inside with the so-called egg tooth. It's a real feat of strength as the chicks fight their way into life. The little chicks are provided with species-appropriate accommodation. With the support of the Fallersleben and Surrounding Area Poultry Breeding Association, children and adults alike can experience the miracle of life. Biology live. 

Get to know different breeds of chickens that you have probably never heard of before. The Fallersleben and Surrounding Area Poultry Breeding Association has set itself the task of preserving many species that would otherwise no longer exist. The members of the association look after the chicks and make sure that the little ones have everything they need.  The focus of the association is on the joy of working with animals. Each chick is returned to the breeders, where it is raised further.

You can visit the chick hatchery from 28 March to 6 April 2026!
