I am considering clipping the wings of my 6 hens. They make an absolute mess in the barn! Their coop is a small stall in the barn. They are all wired in but we let them out every morning. Their stall opens to the outside and also into a much larger stall that houses one goat. (my other had to be put down about a month ago :( ) They fly over the rail into the main part of the barn. They have the dirt floor all full of holes and gaps to the outside! They go upstairs and poop all over! I just want them to stay out of the main barn! They have loads of room! I am worried that if I clip their wings they won't be able to roost. I also don't want them stressed out. They are beautiful healthy chickens with no pecking discernible order . We get 6 eggs most days and really like them! (both the chickens and the eggs!)
I am fairly new to chickens-these are my 1st. They are just over a year old.
