Hi everyone. I'm planning on building a coop and getting chickens and was wondering if chickens would fly off a cliff. My backyard abuts a cliff and its about a 30 ft drop. I wanted to let them roam around.

Amazingly she has about 10 or so roosters and I have never seen them fight. Usually the wanderers consist of a group of RIR hens and a rooster. Sometimes it will be two different groups of RIRs. She has Speckled Sussex, Light and Buff Bramhas and Hamburgs (?) which I have never seen outside the fence. I love to watch them, they are so funny. The nice thing is she told my son to keep any eggs they lay in his yard. So that is always a nice treat.roosters or not?
my flock would wonder over to the neighbors with no rooster. the girls kinda went were they wanted. With roosters, they keep them much more contained to the main area around the coupe. mine wonder off in the woods espeically if i head back there, but again, it isnt long before the roo has them rounded back up and headed back toward the main house/coupe
id say my flock of 24 range a 100' radius around the barn 95% of the time. (thats .75 of an acre btw id say they range upto an acre tops)
