“Chickens can’t fly!”

[TinyRaptorDodos]

People says chickens can’t fly…. I’d say otherwise.

That's false. Chickens can't fly like a bird, but they can definitely jump/fly up on things.

Well yeah, they’re too heavy too actually fly but it’s close enough to be called flying

Never heard that - maybe silkies and Cornish X, but chickens can't fly?

I had a EE hen who flew about forty or fifty feet from my porch edge to her coop, she was my best flyer and her name was Sunshine! She eventually got to heavy to be flown anymore, she's happily passed on now.

But the juveniles (pullets) can "really fly! My sweet little Mari will fly from the ground up to my chest and shoulders and I'm pretty tall myself!
