All fencing has been off for nearly a month and will remain off until chicks are on the ground. Long-term pups must be confident around fences so I want their first exposures to the fence to be controlled. They need to respect fence, yet feel comfortable operating in close proximity to it. It took too long training adults to work close around fence where Ben in particular is hesitant of getting in close to fence when needed. Lucy and Honey will run through fence suffering shocks and still keep composure. Getting zapped hurts, but it should not mean you take day off. Pups must learn the pain goes away fast. Will plug in lower powered fence charger when fence goes back on line. The down side is it will not be able to burn back weeds.
