Not offhand Ken. I was wanting to go but my daughter could pop any day now and I am trying to get my coop finished first. And I am afraid I may not be able to resist getting chicks.

They can, but not as high. They will try,but to no avail, as far as how high they want to go. after a while they will give up.

So clipping both wings is good? I didn't want them hurting themselves with off-balance flight attempts. With both wings clipped, they can flutter, but not fly high...right?

From what I have read, this is the way to go. Their flight feathers, with their wings clipped are not enough to support the weight. They can only get so high. If they are off balance, they can surelt hurt themselves. I makes perfect sense to me.
