So, Sunday was Clipping Day.
The Red Stars were clipped last year and their feathers only grew in a little, so I didn't need to do much. But there were white feathers everywhere, after clipping the three leghorns.

Spring clean up (hens)
We knew we had to clip the wings of the new pullets quickly. They are very skittish and they tend to fly high. We were a little nervous that they would get over the 10 foot high fence.
