After a day of having to catch and release… catch and release…
I finally decided to clip Buff the Wayward Chicken’s wings…
After reading an article about wing clipping I decided to be like Nike and “Just Do It”…
I had read over on ThyHands blog about how her husband Jamey had only clipped one wing on each of their chickens… the goal being to keep the chicken “off balance.”
But I didn’t want to mess abound… so we clipped them both.
And…
It’s been 5 days now since the clipping party…
And guess what?
That Houdini of a bird has not escaped once.
I’d call it a success!
