Yep. For about twenty feet to a height of about six feet. At least the old Rhode Island reds we keep up on the farm can.

No, it's badwolf's existential dilemma.

After we solve it, he will evaporate in a whirlwind of philosophical liberation.

It's worth a try!

That doesn't qualify as flying, to me. I call that controlled falling. By that argument, Michael Jordan can fly as well as a chicken.

There, now we have a debate 🙂

Lol. You are saying that my chickens can play b-ball as good as "Air-Jordan"? I don't think so. For one thing, they have a hell of a time getting their claws around the concept. Not to mention the ball!

And they have twice the hang-time as MJ! I'm not sure they can compete at all on offense. But on defense! I can see the lil' buggers randomly splattering their opponents in the eyes and completely stalling any fast break action by making the floor very slippery.

Well, there seemed very little to debate, so I sought to alter the waters of boredom that you and your like generate by your very existence.

Is that a crime?

Nope, but taste well none the less.

I have three hens, and they cannot truely fly, but using their wings they can jump pretty damn high, particularly when theres food on offer.

Lovely creatures though, smarter than cats and dogs (particularly Pavlovs!).

Your chickens are smarter than dogs?

How the hell did you measure that?

PETA said so, so it must be true.

You could try accelerating a chicken to escape velocity and see what happens to it.

If nothing else it will give your neighbours a laugh.
