Chickabee Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I knew when I was hatching my Cream Legbars that they would be flighty. I have had one before. I had no idea though that they could actually fly at 6 weeks old. I've made a makeshift run for them, inside my run. They keep flying to the top of it. It's about 4ft tall. What I really need to know now is, when can I clip their wings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Maybe you should weigh them down with a big rock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 The moment my maran and buff Sussex big chicks flew over my head up the garden one day I thought yup, time to clip them. Only needed the one session and they never did it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloud Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I know you have to be carful of blood feathers. If she's sill growing her flight feathers is there a danger that that they may still have blood in them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickabee Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 There's 2 of them. I'm not as worried now, I put mum back in with them and they are much calmer. Will wait a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
