Who we are
About the farm
We founded our ostrich farm in 2001 in Kotzenbach near Püchersreuth in the Upper Palatinate; we run the small farm of about 30 hectares part-time and converted the former sheep and pig sheds for the ostriches. Today we keep more than 120 ostriches, 18 of them breeding birds. From our own animals we offer ostrich meat, sausages and salami, ostrich eggs, ostrich fat and soap made from it, leather and feather products and dog chews, and blossom and forest honey from our daughter's beekeeping, in our online shop and, by appointment, in our farm shop; visits to the animals are also by appointment only.

Write a review
How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
