No they don't. I have Khaki Campbells and the breeder said I did not need to clip their wings. They have got out a couple of times. Once I saw one go over the top of the electric fence (about 3' 6") but this is not the norm.

I don't know about other breeds as some are fliers.

If you were to clip a wing it would need to be when they are fully fledged. :)
Experience is what you get when you didn't get what you wanted!!
