Do roosters fly

Answer 1

According to Wikipedia's distrobution map, there are chickens (hens and roosters) in several African communities (mostly coastal) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:2004chicken.PNG Hens and roosters are kept primarily for agricultural purposes, and roosters (male chickens) are required to maintain a breeding population. Roosters can be aggressive and territorial, and so are usually kept in much lower quantities than hens since they do not produce eggs. Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societiesis a 1997 book by Jared Diamond, and it includes an in-depth look at the spread of domesticated animals throughout the world. It describes why domesticated animals have a broader geographic range than wild animals, and provides some historical evidence as to when various animals, including chickens first appeared in Africa, Asia, and Europe.

Roosters are not able to fly in the same way as birds like hawks or sparrows. Roosters are heavy birds and have limited flying ability, usually only able to fly short distances such as to roost in trees or escape predators.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had a rooster that spent as much time in the trees as it did on the ground. We had to put a net like top over the coop.
