Jens Hens Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 We Have clipped the wings of our 3 chickens but they are still intent on getting on top of the fence (4ft). We will not be able to raise the fence for a while would clipping the other wing help to stop the chickens trying to escape? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puffball Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 i don't think so... why dont you put chicken wire above the run near the fence so that they can't fly up? hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jomaxsmith Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Wing clipping is meant to unbalance them so if you clip both wings you negate the effect and they can still get lift. Jo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
