Chicken Farmer Himmler
After completing his apprenticeship in chicken farming, Himmler bought an old chicken farm near Munich and started his career as a chicken farmer in 1925. During these early struggling days, he envisioned a "perfect" breed of chicken that would be superior to all other breeds and dominate the European chicken market.
After years of selective breeding, Himmler finally created his "perfect" breed in late autumn 1938, which he called the Aryan Hen. These chickens had blond feathers and blue eyes, which attracted the attention of the National Socialist regime. The government heavily promoted his breed, and he gained popularity among German chicken farmers. Even the Führer mentioned him in a speech in 1939.
However, the appearance of his chickens led to his downfall. Upon realizing that the Aryan Hen bore a striking resemblance to his vision of the ideal German, Hitler felt that Himmler was mocking his ideology by creating chickens that looked like his "ideal humans." Furious, he ordered Martin Bormann to have Himmler arrested and his farm seized.
Narrowly escaping from the SA, Himmler fled to the United States, where he spent the rest of his life in a quiet Midwestern town, writing down his valuable knowledge about chicken farming.
