How to Clip Chicken Wings

[@dianeNoneYa1157]

Lol she screamed like you were insulting her by cutting her beautiful feathers! Like going to the beauty salon and getting a bad haircut...scary stuff 😂

[@GrowGatherGarnish]

Haha, of course she would be the mouthiest chicken I’ve ever clipped wings on before….right after I said it doesn’t hurt the birds 😂

[@dianeNoneYa1157]

@@GrowGatherGarnish Of course 😂

[@Nickfulcrium]

No that’s cause the scissors creating a pulling motion when it moves the feather downward and it Riggs on the root which actually hurts

[@BenDoverDarling]

@@GrowGatherGarnish you’re hurting your chickens but don’t realize it. People watching this don’t do this. Only cut the tips of the feather group at the end of the wing, not the tip of the inner group where this man starts. Those have blood vessels still and hurt them if cut.

Not mine. Clipped last evening and this morning they were over the fence & in the top of my fig tree about 10’ up.😂

[@GrowGatherGarnish]

Are you sure they aren’t hopping on something and stair stepping their way out? They will hop from branch to branch and get pretty high if they can

[@loon1994]

Thank you for a short. Caught an escaped bird and remembered this was an option. And needed a quick how-to as I got the siccors without letting go of the bird

[@jordanallen3078]

this video did not alleviate any of my anxiety but thanks for trying

[@desertdweller9255]

I’m just learning but didn’t you just clip her warmth feathers too? I read that only the first 8 feathers from her nose down to her tail should be clipped.

[@GrowGatherGarnish]

I may have but when I did this during the hot months she doesn’t need them. I’ve never had any issues clipping the whole wing

[@Kailuakara]

If you only clip the front flight feathers vs the whole wing and only one wing, the hen won’t be able to fly and still will look attractive with the back warming feathers. 🐓 By clipping the whole wing I’ve discovered that they don’t look as pretty and it’s not needed.

[@crazybros398]

Some chickens WILL get over the fence if you leave them on. Bigger egg laying chickens will do this

[@chriswest7639]

Yes he cut too far. Only the front ones

[@LindaFlynn321]

Did you only do one side or do you do both?

[@GrowGatherGarnish]

I do both sides but some folks only do one

[@TotallyActing]

Some people pull them out and it’s horrible bc the chicken goes through a lot of pain.

[@Sammy-uj6eh]

Wait, chickens can fly?

[@olamkeecee1425]

nope, i'm not doing that

[@ChristopherBosch-ff1dt]

Then it gets bigger for feed. Think you take away eggs. More research 😮 not on humans then you eat.
