This session of the European Curlew Headstarting Workshop was led by Chrissie Kelley from Pensthorpe Conservation Trust and discusses best practices for rearing chicks. Topics will include designing optimal enclosures, feeding and monitoring routines, and techniques for weighing, sexing, and ring/tagging chicks. The session will also examine the recommended timelines for keeping chicks in pens during various developmental stages. In this blog you can find the recording of Chrissie’s presentation as well as a summary of the Q&A and discussion that followed during the live conference in 2025.
