Worthy Pen

The first work session took place on Saturday with myself, Stephen, Kevin and new shoot member David attending.

Worthy Park Pen was the project for the morning to encourage more ground cover inside the pen so when the poults arrive they have somewhere to bury into and get away from the weather and each other. The picture shows Stephen and David creating a gap to let some sun light into the top half of the pen.

Whatever we cut back was used to create clumps of cover. Extra rubble was also placed around the outside of the pen to give the fencing more strength to protect from charlie.

The fencing needs a few more cable ties in some sections plus the electric fence will need to be repaired nearer the release date. Once this has been done then the pen should be ready to go. (Although more ground cover will be required - tops of fir tree's etc)
