Can chickens swim?

[BantyHugger]

We have 1 that can float for a few minutes in the duck pond (her choice not ours). Most get water logged and drown though.

1 of mine swam across the duck's pool really fast once. It has accidently flown into it but the water was not that deep either and if it hadn't gotten right back out I would of went and got it out.

Watching that video I just kept thinking of the pool chemicals in the water.

Poor bird.

I've pulled about 3 chickens out of the cow water tank this year. So, I think they quickly get waterlogged, sink then drown.

That little chicken thinks it's a duck!
