The killing of day-old chicks is controversially discussed in poultry keeping, science, politics, and society. The present survey data contributes to understand consumers´ attitudes towards ethical issues in chicken production, especially the killing practice and dual purpose chickens as alternative to avoid such killing. Information on the various topics is provided: Consumer purchase pattern of eggs and chicken meat, perception of animal welfare and protection issues, knowledge and perception of killing day-old chicks, attitudes towards dual purpose chickens as an alternative to killing day-old chicks, and socio-demographic data. The data set contains standardized responds of 1000 telephone interviews. These interviews were conducted with German consumers in spring 2016. The survey data were in part analysed with cluster analysis to categorize consumers according to their purchasing criteria for dual chicken products, and assessing which socio-economic variables best described each of the consumer categories. The survey raw data, a file with the questionnaire and the codes, the analysed data, and additional files for understanding the cluster analysis are hosted in the public repository Open Research Data https://www.doi.org/10.4228/ZALF.DK.106.
在家禽养殖、科学、政治和社会领域，对于一日龄雏鸡的宰杀存在争议性讨论。当前的调查数据有助于了解消费者对鸡肉生产中伦理问题的态度，特别是宰杀行为以及作为避免此类宰杀的替代方案的兼用型鸡。提供了关于各个主题的信息：消费者对鸡蛋和鸡肉的购买模式、对动物福利和保护问题的认知、对宰杀一日龄雏鸡的了解和认知、对兼用型鸡作为宰杀一日龄雏鸡替代方案的态度，以及社会人口统计学数据。该数据集包含1000次电话访谈的标准化回复。这些访谈于2016年春季对德国消费者进行。部分调查数据通过聚类分析进行了分析，以便根据消费者对兼用型鸡产品的购买标准对消费者进行分类，并评估哪些社会经济变量最能描述每个消费者类别。调查原始数据、带有问卷和代码的文件、分析后的数据以及用于理解聚类分析的其他文件存于公共知识库开放研究数据https://www.doi.org/10.4228/ZALF.DK.106中。
