Today we’re discussing flying the coop as part of our A Year With Chickens Series. We dedicate one episode per month to this series, covering what to expect when raising a chicken in that particular month. For the month of September, we’re taking a look at all things outside of the coop now that your chicks have matured. We’ll discuss everything from how to free-range, to preparing for molt and how to literally keep your flock from flying the coop with wing trimming.  

In this episode you'll: 

• Get Answers To All Your Free-Ranging Questions
• Learn What To Expect When Chickens Molt
• Better Understand How To Properly Trim Wings
