German farmer slammed for fingering his chickens

Animal rights organisation PETA has launched an official complaint against German farmer Hansi, for sexually abusing chickens.

The 71-year-old contestant on the fourth series of Germany's hit TV show ‘Bauer sucht Frau’ (‘Farmer wants a Wife’) was seen sexually stimulating his chickens with his finger. In a shocking series finale, he told his chosen partner, blonde Marianne (66) from Hamburg, "this is how they get an orgasm".

Needless to say she was not impressed: "You always hear jokes about what lonely farmers do to their animals… I am disgusted. This is not my world." Marianne promptly packed her bags and left Hansi alone to tend to his chickens.



Along with many of the record 8.6 million other TV viewers, PETA spokesman Harald Ullmann (52) was not happy: “This behaviour is an offence and is not acceptable.” The agency has now launched an abuse complaint against the farmer.

But Hansi doesn't see anything wrong with his chicken petting: “I do what the cockerel would usually do, only with my finger. It is like an orgasm for the chicken.”

The gruff farmer, who drinks raw eggs and sugar for breakfast, added: "Hansi is always happy when the chickens are happy.” His other favourite pastime is walking around his farm in the nude: “Being naked is a beautiful thing.”
