I have a black swedish drake who is managing to get over my 3.5' high fence. I have not seen him do this but my neighbor across the street said he ran down the hill, jumped and glided over the fence on 2 occasions. There is a busy road that he's luckily been able to cross without incident but I lost a khaki campbell hen last fall in a similar incident when she was hit by a car.
My 2 questions are will clipping the primary flight feathers be enough to prevent him from gliding down the hill over the fence and would it be better to clip 1 or both wings?
