Pro tip for catching chickens. Play the song “Turkey in the straw” really loud while chasing them. It doesn’t necessarily make them easier to catch, but it does make it more entertaining for everybody watching.
What’re you getting at? A flightless bird could hypothetically glide an indefinite amount of distance without hurting itself. Like a human on a paraglider
That's not what im worried about. If he wants theit wings clipped so they can't fly out, they can't fly if a predator manages to get in and goes after them. Theyll be dead. Then the guy is going to blame the poor predator even tho HE was the one who clipped their wings and hindered their ability fo fly, so then hes going to go hunt and murder that poor animal for just trying to survive and probably bring back food for their kids
@@reptilelover597 Dogs. Dogs are the best answer and deterrent. Also, there’s much more likely to get got by predators when they are not clipped because they have much more tendency to go off on their own into trees and stuff rather than returning to the coop at dusk.
@@user-ug5xr2gb6j those dogs can either get hurt by a predator or be the one to hurt the predator. Besides, chickens will naturally return to their coop each evening if it's established as their home. You can also easily train them to come when called, whether it's time for them to go into the coop at night or if you spot a day predator or another situation. You don't take away their natural defense and their beautiful wing deaths to make them stay on the ground. Just like how you don't descent skunks to keep them from using their natural defense and spraying
Another tactic, put a chicken wire skirt along the top. Just need a foot or so. Then cut the top so theres no definitive top wire. If they dont see a solid horizontal wire at the top then they dont realize the wire ends. They wont fly out of it. Pretty effective at keeping them in and as a bonus helps keep racoons and possoms out. They dont like to climb wobbly wire.
Figured out over the past 15 years of keeping chickens, if the people they know treat them well and respect them, be gentle and don't be threatening to them. They will remember that and they won't be crazy or mean to you. Our last generation we have been doing that with, now we have 5 chickens, including our two roosters that will let you pick them up and hold them, and they trust us so much that we can even lift and move their wings without them flinching or getting scared. Apparently chickens have very good memory and are very sensitive lol
@@natalyiax6214 I’ve never heard a cat talk. Doesn’t mean they don’t communicate. I’m talking intelligence wise it’s practically the same. Obviously their vocal cords are different.
It's just not always true. I've had some hens and roosters that were just aggressive for no reason. We treat all of our chickens very well, spend time with them almost everyday and give them ample room to roam. Some chickens just wake up and choose violence everyday.
If you want your chickens to love you, put sone grain in your pocket (or just have it on hand) and give them a little snack when they see you. They'll learn to run right up to you and let you pick them up in no time. Also, once you have a chicken caught, don't let it go until it calms down.
Just cause your chickens run up to you doesn’t mean they love you. My chickens run up to me all the time expecting treats but they sure as hell won’t willingly let me touch them

I don't have much experience but I've never seen a chicken that intentionally runs away. I have a smaller area than this and more chickens. I've never had any problems.
@@themanhimself3I’ve never owned any but my friend used to until he moved, the only problem they had is that sometimes they felt adventurous and would leave the side yard that they were kept in cus their gate couldn’t close, normally they wouldn’t, but there’s been about 3 that decided they wanted to be adventurous, but the dogs in the front yard said time to hunt, so they learned not to go out the gate, what I find weird is that if you bring any of his dogs into the side yard they don’t do anything to the birds, it’s only when they’re in the front yard, or it was neighbor dogs
Yeah, and when a predator decides to go after them without those feathers it’ll be even easier for them to get at them. He’s gonna have to watch them like the hawks are going to be doing.
That's not funny, he couldve seriously hurt that animal. This isn't a game these are actual lives imagine if someone cut a part of your arm off then went whoops I cut off the wrong part! It doesn't matter if you end up eating them they are still alive an deserve to be respected and not tortured. It's disgusting that you think it's funny.

I’m glad that i have such a good relationship with my chickens. I’ve only been bit twice and both those times I had my pointer finger out and near their beaks. I can pick up and hug my rooster (who I call pepperoni face) and he doesn’t struggle at all. He might get a little upset if I hold him too long. All my chickens are a real joy to have.
Make sure you’re not clipping too short, the feathers will bleed. Also, birds with clipped wings can fly, they just don’t have enough thrust to get very high.
As someone who's raised chickens all their life its easier to get them when they about to go to sleep or right before morning when they are waking up. Since they are all trying to roost for the night or early morning it's easier to separate them or handle them.
Leave the last feather on the tip of the wing. Because the cut tip of digited feathers can dig into the side of the chicken. If you leave 1 feather it will prevent the cut ones from hurting the bird.
Do all your chicken management at night, by torchlight. Just turn the torch on when you need to clip, etc. They're sleepy at night and are much easier to handle.

I bonded with my chickens from a very young age. If I run up to them they just look at me like I’m crazy lol. All 17 of ours come when called, sometimes even sit in my lap when I’m out there with them
@opalbirb8644 My Rhode Island Reds are so mean to my other chickens. They peck my young bantam chickens in the face and back. I also have a young Barred Plymouth Rock rooster that rips all the hens' neck feathers out. My chickens fight to the death for blueberry snacks or old bread.
@CatManTho There is a difference in meat chickens and laying chickens. We raised Cornish rock chickens specifically to eat, and they grow fat quickly. The chickens were so fat they could not walk more than 2 steps. They were killed in a few weeks. Our laying hens lay for about 2 to 5 years, and they are too skinny to eat.
@chrisk8126 I wasn't saying there isn't other ways. That's just what we do and they will come to us every time. We pick them up and pet them regularly.
Not everyone wants a bunch of pet chickens lol. You can treat them well, just let them be farm animals and work with them after dark if they need something.
Very true , my grandmother would call them to feed and they would appear early in the morning , also my grandfather when he would come back home on horse the chickens would approach him and follow him sometimes.
I have chickens myself and when I go to pick them up they stay still and crouch down so I suggest maybe get there trust and bond with them. It's easier when u get them as babys they will warm up to u. both ways work honestly
You’re right. They will trust you if you make a bond with them. I raised mine from chicks and held and pet them every time I was near them. Now anytime I’m outside they all run up to me to be held (we call this “uppies ♥️). I can easily cut their wings without a fuss from most of them. It’s harder to train this when they’re older though for sure. Gotta start young pulling their wings from their body or they’ll always try and escape. I can even do this with my roosters but they’re less affectionate of course. They have a job to do and won’t stay still long.
This isn’t a trust bond it’s the breed of chicken🤦🏻♀️ I’ve had chickens my whole life and some breeds will cower when being caught while others will put up a full fight cowering IS NOT a sign of trust it just means they understand you won’t kill them they still don’t “like” you
@@madisonjd.6969 only one of mine crouches when im picking her up. But it’s bc I didn’t raise her from a chick. I agree though breed of chicken makes a difference in temperament. Mine are mostly Easter eggers and olive eggers.
I saw an ingenious trap that was a piece of paper rolled to be a little cone shape, and it has a stick with a treat attached about halfway up the cone. The chicken pecks the treat and holds on to it and the cone comes up over their eyes and blocks their sight. Then you just scoop them up.
Dig a whole in the ground, put a chicken and a corded phone in. The other chickens will see this and go, what the heck is Henry doing in that hole on the phone. Bada bang bada boom, you got yourself a chicken trap.
I’ve only ever had one chicken get out, so having them have the ability to avoid potential predators by gliding when the dogs aren’t outside is important. Definitely a good tip if you’ve got birds that like to escape enclosures and such.
I know that people do this and I guess I get the idea but I'm personally not a fan of clipping birds wings, these feathers will never fully regrow and will impair them for the rest of their life. I'd say get a higher fence, maybe even put a net on top of it to protect them from birds of pray.
@@mark_szekeres Yes, Mark. Very good. Birds moult! But Problem is that it takes a long time for all of the primary feathers to regrow, even longer if the bird is under environmental or mental stress. And tell me, do you think that their owner is going to leave them alone if they regain their ability to fly? No, then he has the problem of them running away again so, the easiest awnser is to clip them again. Additionally, while clipped the birds will still try to use their wings, or in the case of the video be thrown apparently which both can lead to injuries to the bird. This is why it is mostly discouraged when it comes to pets like parrots or parakeets, not so much for poultry, but it is still something I'd still not recommend because the loss of their ability to fly can cause unnecessary stress.
If the foxes want the chicken, they are going to get them with or without clipped wings. If anything it’s safer for them so they don’t escape and make it easier for the predators
In my experience, the best way to catch a chicken is to wait until dark. Go in the coop and just scoop them up one by one. No fuss when you catch them in their sleep.
@@V4p3rcl0ud watching one free roam chicken ALL DAY EVERYDAY is impossible 😂 much less more than one, you have fun defending your chickens with your guns lol
My chickens are friendly and comfortable with me. I just walk up to them, put my hand by the back of their legs, and with my other hand i scoot the chicken by its chest onto my hand. And boom, the chicken is standing on my hand. Sometimes i like to gently hold it down and press it against my chest so it feels safe and so that it won't jump off or fly away from me. You can also put the chicken on your arm and let it roost on you.
From experience, free range them in your area. They'll go everywhere finding their own food, the only thing very important is to give them a safe roost at night. High areas or caged and protected nesting areas usually work (like a chicken coop). Training them needs a little dedication tho 😅😅
![Felix "Unfair" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Oswujxm2Ag0/mqdefault.jpg)
As a chicken owner myself, just make sure you lower their roosting bar once you cut the feathers. They ain't gonna be able to roost if it's 7 ft up.
I thought the same
it also prevents them from escaping predators as well, I personally wouldn't recommend doing this unless you somehow have no coyotes or coons around.
I thought that too plus I've got jersey giants so I have to make sure the roosting bar is lower for them to safely roost
Roost?

It’s harder to train this when they’re older though for sure. Gotta start young pulling their wings from their body or they’ll always try and escape. I can even do this with my roosters but they’re less affectionate of course. They have a job to do and won’t stay still long.
This isn’t a trust bond it’s the breed of chicken🤦🏻♀️ I’ve had chickens my whole life and some breeds will cower when being caught while others will put up a full fight cowering IS NOT a sign of trust it just means they understand you won’t kill them they still don’t “like” you
@@moonbabymagic1917aww❤😊
@@madisonjd.6969 only one of mine crouches when im picking her up. But it’s bc I didn’t raise her from a chick. I agree though breed of chicken makes a difference in temperament. Mine are mostly Easter eggers and olive eggers.
Name the chicken
Darrell❤😂
We spent the whole day trying to catch the mean old rooster. My son went out that night when they were all asleep in the coop and just grabbed him. 😂😅
Best time to catch a wild chicken is at night when they’re roosting or throw some food they love and catch them while they’re in the frenzy of eating
Love how you clip pythons wings then throw her over the Gate 😂😂😂
My grandmother does this all the time, its a really good trick for people who have chickens
I love how terrified you look of those chickens 😂😂
Well, they're basically dinosaurs. Pretty intimidating creatures imo 😂😂😂
They may be lil birds, but they still fitting to leave a mark😂
Those bastards are terrifying
Name him poo poo tim
Daryl ain't havin this😂😂😂
I’ve classically trained mine to come when I say “C’mere!” They usually associate the calling with snacks.
Same lol
I just yell chick chicky. Suddenly you see 30 chickens running from their shade sheds.
"Yum-yum-yum!!" And my birds come running.
Is this like equivalent to declaving a cat? Those chicken ain't gon survive when a fox appears
Well if my chicken keeps getting out it's not gonna last much longer either😂
“It’s doesn’t hurt the chicken”
Proceeds to throw the chicken 10 feet in the air** I swear I heard a loud thump when it landed
It'll live
He forgot once you clip the wings they can’t fly like normal 😂😂😂
It's a chicken stop crying
@@justaviewer1410the chickens are there for a reason. Treat it right if its made to supply stuff
Its fine stop bitching
I saw an ingenious trap that was a piece of paper rolled to be a little cone shape, and it has a stick with a treat attached about halfway up the cone. The chicken pecks the treat and holds on to it and the cone comes up over their eyes and blocks their sight. Then you just scoop them up.
Dig a whole in the ground, put a chicken and a corded phone in. The other chickens will see this and go, what the heck is Henry doing in that hole on the phone. Bada bang bada boom, you got yourself a chicken trap.

Buttercup!

You are 😂 haunter
Lets see how you fare when a being 500x your size throws you. Ignorant.
Butter nuts
I’ve only ever had one chicken get out, so having them have the ability to avoid potential predators by gliding when the dogs aren’t outside is important. Definitely a good tip if you’ve got birds that like to escape enclosures and such.
You do it when they first get the adult feathers because by the time it grows back, it’s not second nature to them
Python is scary af 😂😂
When he cuts her wing, he throws it as if it's still able to fly 😅
That’s the point 😭
I know that people do this and I guess I get the idea but I'm personally not a fan of clipping birds wings, these feathers will never fully regrow and will impair them for the rest of their life. I'd say get a higher fence, maybe even put a net on top of it to protect them from birds of pray.
Guess what. Their feathers fall out and grow back. It's called molting 😮😮😮
@@mark_szekeres Yes, Mark. Very good. Birds moult! But Problem is that it takes a long time for all of the primary feathers to regrow, even longer if the bird is under environmental or mental stress. And tell me, do you think that their owner is going to leave them alone if they regain their ability to fly? No, then he has the problem of them running away again so, the easiest awnser is to clip them again.
Additionally, while clipped the birds will still try to use their wings, or in the case of the video be thrown apparently which both can lead to injuries to the bird. This is why it is mostly discouraged when it comes to pets like parrots or parakeets, not so much for poultry, but it is still something I'd still not recommend because the loss of their ability to fly can cause unnecessary stress.

The foxes are thanking you.
For real though it’s so messed up 😔
@@madelynsslimefactory2571 But it’s funny
If the foxes want the chicken, they are going to get them with or without clipped wings. If anything it’s safer for them so they don’t escape and make it easier for the predators
@@madelynsslimefactory2571everyone gotta eat we are all animals
You really think it’s gonna change much even if they could fly a fox gets in it would slowly mooch off of all your hens until they all die
Just hope they aint free range 😂
Also now you gotta Lower their roosts.
IF ITS A HER, MYLA. IF ITS A HIM, MYLO. Because this chicken was so Mello with the process.

Man.. I've become a MASTER chicken catcher! But a fishing net ALWAYS works the best! Yes sirrrrr
Every.single.time! ❤
Cinnamon! Name the hen Cinnamon!
In my experience, the best way to catch a chicken is to wait until dark. Go in the coop and just scoop them up one by one. No fuss when you catch them in their sleep.
That chicken laughed when it flew up there
I could listen to him talk all day 😂😂😂
U should name ur chicken dog😂😂
I just love his accent I could listen to him all day
if you clip their wings how will they get to that roosting pole? lol

“i’m not a nugget!” - Owen Hart
yes
Boutta comment that lol
My chickens are friendly and comfortable with me. I just walk up to them, put my hand by the back of their legs, and with my other hand i scoot the chicken by its chest onto my hand. And boom, the chicken is standing on my hand. Sometimes i like to gently hold it down and press it against my chest so it feels safe and so that it won't jump off or fly away from me. You can also put the chicken on your arm and let it roost on you.
Name the one chicken nugget
From experience, free range them in your area. They'll go everywhere finding their own food, the only thing very important is to give them a safe roost at night. High areas or caged and protected nesting areas usually work (like a chicken coop). Training them needs a little dedication tho 😅😅
A good fishing dip net is handy and doesn't hurt the birds. I use one for my chickens ducks and geese.
Thought that said grease lol
