One could only hope, as those traits must be present to have a chicken as a chicken was meant to be, noble, beautiful, intelligent enough to interact at a much higher level. Long lived with a fifteen to twenty year productive lifespan because it is not rife with genetic defects. Able to survive with little human intervention or shelter, not only survive but flourish, often reaching plague like proportions despite predators .
These birds traits are why chickens were domesticated in the first place. And their genetic input has been added back to the barnyard fluffball to make every "new" breed that has come down the pipe, adding structural correctness, breeding soundness, and the instincts necessary to survive and forage. This is the historical reason for these breeds popularity and success, and also the reason why they later fail to perform up to the standards of their early documentations. A dose of game helps any chicken, but they can only ride the wave so long before those traits are lost. Their perfection is owing to the fact that they have been selected, over thousands of years, by being culled by birds that were better than them, instead of some weird chicken lady that thought their butt wasn't fluffy enough.
