I know this is off topic for pictures but is there a way to keep them from flying out without trimming their wings?

Not unless you put a top over their run. Or make the fence so high that they can't climb over.

Not really. D'Uccles are incredible flyers. One of mine flew over a 6 foot garden fence with no problem. The only way to stop them from flying out of the run would be to cover it.

According to Hoover’s, they are D’Uccles. Just poor quality.
