Show with chickens
Chickens are stupid? No way! In this exciting workshop you will get fascinating insights into the world of animal training by means of positive reinforcement during half a day or a whole day. The seminar starts with a show, during which you will experience up close what crazy and amazing tricks and behaviors the chickens are capable of. After the enjoyable introduction you can try yourself as a chicken tamer.
Training and Chicken Challenge
Before getting down to "living", you will receive a theoretical introduction to the Clicker Technique; a contemporary, extremely efficient training method that is suitable for all animal species. Then it's your turn. In small teams you will try to teach "your" chicken one trick or another. You will quickly find out what is important in this "leading without words". At the final Chicken Challenge you can show the other teams what your chicken has learned.
Benefits of the workshop
In this seminar you will learn how to communicate clearly without words. You train your powers of observation and learn how to react quickly and precisely to the chicken's behaviour. Clear communication, sharp perception and quick reaction are behaviours that are also useful in dealing with fellow humans. In this sense the workshop is also a leadership and communication training.
Duration, minimum age, previous knowledge
At the half-day seminar you will work with the chickens for about two and a half hours, at the full-day seminar it is two blocks of about two hours each.
