New layers pen August 2009

newlayerspenaugust2009.jpg

The first new layers pen was at the end of the big hens' pen, out of sight on the left side of this picture. But it turns out 2 of the 4 "hens" were roosters. (Hard to sex chicks)

So they were removed to the broilers pen, and 2 new hens selected. But to introduce the new hens, everyone had to be in a place that belonged to none of them. So we used the electric net from the Salatin pen to make a new temporary pen.
