Wandering chick PLEASE HELP

[allyschicks]

I have my chicks enclosed in a large area with chicken wire and they have access back into their coop . It's shaded and sunny. It has plenty of vegetation for them to go at as well as usual feed given to them. ONE chick escapes every day! I have clipped one wing but my god she can jump. Is there any tips out there to keeping her in? I am at the end of a very long tether, as the neighbour has started complaining even though I've tried keeping him sweet with eggs. He's fed up with chicken s**t on his beautifully manicured lawn. Consequently I have had to restrict the chicks to a small enclosed run which has a roof. CAN ANYBODY HELP PLEASE. Thank you

I would probably suggest some light chicken wire over the top, also check the bottom perimeter incase she's sneaking underneath too

Agree with EZZSTAR , Maybe get some wire stakes for the bottom , and cover the top with the right wire , if you put enough crab hooks around the top she want get out anymore.........

Thank you , I think I knew really I was going to have to top it with wire but was trying to avoid it! Off I go to buy another roll of wire. Yes I have checked the bottom and the have bricks all around holding wire down so she can't go under it. I've seen her jump out! It's really high but she manages it every day! Funny isn't it but annoying for the neighbour ! Trust me to get the Houdini of the chicken world. Thanks for your advice
