CLIPPING WINGS?

[newmama]

Hello! We have eight bantums that are about 8 weeks old and flying already. Hubby says we can clip their wings to keep them from getting out of the yard... is it OK? How? Too young yet? HELP!!

Just clip on one side. You will have to clip again after they molt and get new feathers. If they're flying it shouldn't be too soon.

Red or green?
