I was just wandering if they would fly out of my fence or if there like normal rhode island reds that don't fly
 
Hello and welcome to BYC

I'm afraid I have no idea. The best place I can think of now to ask would be the Breeds section:

You can also trim the chickens' flight feathers if you don't want them to fly over the fence. There's an article with more info on it here:

Hi and :welcome from Ohio. So glad to have you aboard. Not sure but I would think that the heavier weighted bantams might not fly as well. We had bantam cochins that would fly as young ones but as they got older didn't fly at all. :thumbsup
