My Silkie Rooster Taught Himself How to Fly

[SuperiorMamaHen99]

My silkie rooster taught himself how to fly. He’ll fly up to roost and to watch as one of the hens lays an egg. Has anyone else dealt with this? He said no to all of Science. Should I call someone?

Hi! Welcome! I don't know if you want your rooster to roost or not. Is it on a proper roost inside the coop? I had a couple hens who liked to roost in a tree. One liked to give the benediction at the end of the day. It didn't end well for her. Here she is.

I've never had Silkies, but maybe others that have had them can give you some insight.

Thanks for joining us!

Hello there and welcome to BYC!

I have never kept Silkies so I can't say. They are such cuddly looking birds though.

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
I, too, have never owned a Silkie. Perhaps he the majority of the motion that got him up there was from jumping with the wings for a little help?
