Why don't you clip their wings? Watch out for foxes!

Ah Glenn, the solution is in the problem: I've erected signs at regular intervals around the perimeter of our garden that say "Danger: Foxes".
If the hens know what's good for them they're not going anywhere. No need to clipped; they can remain symmetrically winged (which will be a weight off their minds I'm sure).
But I and, especially, the girls appreciate your concern. If you think of anything else, do let me know.

what font is the sign set in? I hope there were plenty of chicken eye tests prior to installation.

Rotisserie Sans is the best I can do.
