Chickens in my tree

[mrscrowe711]

My chickens have discovered their wings and know how to use them. This morning they got themselves in a tree and thankfully it was low enough to get them out. Can you clip their wings or any other suggestions to make them stop ?

Thanks!

Yes you can clip there wings, just clip feathers from one wing

All you need to clip are the primary feathers on one wing. These are the longest ones on the outer half of the wing.

If clipping one wing not sufficient, then clip second for further reduction in flight capacity. I have done it both ways, repeatedly. Cutting one gives most of reduction while second gives a little addition reduction that stops clambering.
