    Try:

    print $out_file_handle $line_from_file, "\n";

    You're currently printing out the variable $_ which isn't being defined by any of the code you posted (but is being defined somewhere else to point to an object of some kind).

    package Cow { use Moo; has name => (is => 'lazy', default => sub { 'Mooington' }) } say Cow->new->name
