Naked Neck/Turken Thread

Does anybody here know how to prevent chickens from jumping over the fence except clipping wings?
I want to know for older hens and chicks. Is there something to do with small chicks so they won't be able to fly?
 
More baby pics, this isn't all of them just a cross section, except for the scsc, there are three so it is all of them.








I am in love with that white + grey + black chick on the left!

What's up with all the Naked Neck roosters? Seems like they all are people jumpers. I do have one that has never offered to jump but I still watch him because here lately I've been getting man jumpers.

My newest one ice had about month now decided to try it today. Not sure if he'll try it again though after I pulled my steel toes not out if his .............................................…..........................well it didn't really go there but he got it good and never really kicked him just thought he did. He will think twice before he does it again.

Dang, Draye...you're luck with these roosters is awful. I wish you lived closer to me because two of my remaining NN roosters are so human tame as to be downright snuggly. I'll never part with my Heisenberg but I bet you'd get along great with my Shiloh.

Pretty roo. Yeah, well I'll live I reckon. Got toget some babies outta them before I get rid of them I guess. I think I can probably break him. I just need to try a little patience with them I guess, not ( patience) my greatest thing.

That one is extra special. It hatched out thinking, it has personality plus. There is a young boy in our area who loves chickens and had to move to town, his mom is giving him 3 hopefully female chicks from this hatch, I am really hoping it is a girl for him
 
From my last hatch May 28, 2015, I hatched out 17. This makes them four weeks old tomorrow. So far I haven't lost any if them.

Rooster used: Orange Barred.
Hens in run: 1 Red
1 Golden Laced
1 Blue Wheaten (Copper)
1 Mottled Partridge
1 Columbian
1 Silver
Here's what I have in colors on the babies:
Barred 5 all roosters
Black 3 (2) roosters and (1) pullet
Gold Duckwing 2 pullets
Golden Laced 2 (1) rooster (1) pullet
Buff 2 pullets
Red 1 rooster
Salmon (ish) 2 pullets

These are what I'm calling them ( sexing ) though there is a chance one if the barred may be a pullet, just too close to call for sure.
