Safe Wing Clipping

[RosemaryDuck]

Hey everyone! I haven't clipped wings in a few years now and I'm pretty out of practice.

Can anyone provide a good guide/pictures of how to properly clip duck wings? Need a refresher and I don't want to do it incorrectly.

Thanks!

I need to clip mine, too. I also haven't for a long time. But my Pigweed "flew" into the barn and broke her pelvis. She's fine now, but that is not happening again!

Thank you! I apologize I didn't see this until just now. The site didn't give me any notifications!

I've got Pekins, which usually don't fly or even make an effort to. But I've got a Muscovy hen and she's already trying her flying out in her own area, and I don't want her to crash into the netting in the main pen (when I move her) and hurt herself.

And . That's crazy! I'm glad she's okay now.
