Hi everybody. I have a question about wing clipping. I read some of the vast articles on here alrerady, but I was wondering if it really works? I have 1 hen that flys out of the run at least twice a week. I wouldn't care if she could figure out how to get back in, but she just panicks and runs the length of the fence screaming. I find her after dark, when I get home, hidding in the weeds just waiting for me to pick her up and bring her inside. I don't want her getting sick in the cold and rainy weather or eaten by something, so I am thinking about clipping her wings to keep her safe and in the pen with her friends. Does wing clipping really even work? I have a 6 foot fence and she clears it no problem and I often see her flying around the pen while the others just stare at her. She is a Sliver Wyandotte/ Araucana mix and her "twin" sister does not do this, so what gives?
Thanks,
