According to several chicken trivia sites including Guinness World Book the longest verified flight of a domestic chicken is 13 seconds and 301.5 feet distance. I have several Araucana hens that would disagree with this record and a white German Shepard puppy that will gladly verify much longer time in air and distances involved.

Chickens are not strong fliers and can typically only fly for short distances, usually up to around 200 feet. They are more adept at running and walking rather than sustained flight.

Why dont chickens fly?
Chickens are not built for sustained flight like other birds. Their wings are smaller and their bodies are heavier, making it difficult for them to stay airborne for long periods of time.

Why chickens can not fly?
Chickens are not strong fliers because their bodies are heavy relative to the size of their wings. Their skeletal structure and muscle mass are more suited for short bursts of flight, such as to escape predators, rather than sustained flight like other bird species. Additionally, domesticated chickens have been selectively bred to prioritize other traits over flight ability.
