Wing clipping or not?
« on: March 12, 2010, 18:24 »
Hi everyone, I am hopefully getting three light sussex bantams to live in my back garden. They will have a run but i'd like to let them out in the garden when the weather is nicer and i can spend the day outside with them. Should i clip their wings? Or should they be ok? I have 7ft fence all round the garden.

Being bantams it's unlikely they could get over your fence unless you give them something to jump on. My bantams tend to fly low across the ground rather than up high, mind you that could be because they're so fat!

I have some bantams that sleep in my trees and can fly high so if you don't want this then it may be best to clip just one wing on each.
Staffies are softer than you think.
