How do I trim my chicken’s nails?
Toe nails like the top beak will keep growing, if the chicken does not have enough foraging to naturally file the nails down they will grow long, in some breeds they will curl back and eventually cut into the foot so it is important to check them regularly and trim where needed. You can use scissors or nail clippers, it’s very easy, simply hold the hen’s foot and clip the nail back, be careful not to clip too close to the toe as like human nails there is a nail
bed and it will bleed if you cut too close to the toe.
