Quick random question:

I've heard so many different things about wing clipping. Does it hurt?? What's the best way to properly do it?? I only want to do it if it is safe and easy. I don't want my chickens flying over fences...

Like Aoxa said it doesn't hurt. I've pulled out broken foot feathers and the hen did not complain at all. I think if it hurt they wouldn't preen & pull out feathers when they molt :)
 
Thanks for the replies!! Sorry if that was a dumb question lol. I've never dealt with a chicken in my life and I want to at least try and get everything right the first time.
