Cat tails Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Whoever told me chickens aren't greatest flyers, didn't meet my ladies yet... I appologize for the poor quality, but it was already getting dark. And keep in mind, all three chicken's wings are clipped... The other two couldn't appreciate the effort either and were clucking away their distress calls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickabee Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 chickens can do whatever they set their minds too. I used to have a cream legbar who could fly all the way across my garden, which is quite large. I think the longest chicken flight recorded is 30 seconds When in the wild they roost up trees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
percy049 Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 When mine were a lot younger they used to be able to jump/fly over a 5ft fence . After they did that we decided to clip their wings! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 I don't want to know where they would end up if I didn't clip their wings. My fence is about 6 feet high and they would probably clear that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
