I keep my chickens in an area at the bottom of my garden that is cut off from the rest of the garden by a 3 1/2ft fence. Recently two of my four chickens have flown over the fence and unfortunately one of my dogs killed one of them
I managed to catch the other one and return her to the other two chickens, but she keeps flying over the fence, and even into my neighbours garden where she will roost at night if I can'f find her before dark. I'm worried the other two will follow suit and also start flying over the fence. I have re-clipped one wing on each chicken, any suggestions as to why they're trying to escape and how I could prevent it (other than making the fence higher which I'm in the process of doing)? Thanks
