Chickens will naturally go home to roost about half an hour before dark. If you leave a light on in the coop they will wander in and settle down all by themselves. All you need to do is go in after dark and lock them down for the night. Time means nothing to the hens, its all about the ability to see and as dusk approaches they seek shelter.
If he is not peeing or chewing things in your house, but i suggest you lock him up.
Chickens can fly only a few feet at a time. Mostly up about 7 feet. If you have an eight foot fence they shouldn't fly up enough to sit on its top.
They do i own a farm and the male chickens do....female chickens just pee standing no leg up Brianna
Chickens usually rest as often as they can. Once the lights go out or the sun goes down, they rest but can be active throughout the night. Actual sleep could be anywhere from 4 to 8 hours.

Yes a skunk will take eggs and kill chickens. Late at night when the chickens roost they are very docile and will allow a predator to come right up to them without much fear.
When they lock up, they turn off the lights and set the air conditioner and heater on an auto setting, to save time and energy
Chickens have wings because they can, and do fly. They don't fly for long stretches, but they do fly up to perches at night, or if they're trying to get away from a predator.
peals **************** Chickens, that are able to feed on a beach, will mainly eat Sand Hoppers. Sand Hoppers are jumping insects that feed on, and hide in, seaweed cast up along the tide-line. Sand Hoppers are very active during night-time.
This is funny because my dad and i bought chickens 3 months ago. But we have a chicken pen and we usually leave the door open until they get in. Because they usually walk together in groups. Or just pick them up 1 at a time and set them in the chicken pen or coup.
because the foxes might eat them

A chicken has not set sleep pattern. Chickens will fall asleep on and off throughout the day. Chickens will sleep laying down and when standing. This is true for chickens at all stages in their life cycle.
no chickens eat everything, sometimes i think they are more like pigs then pigs are. I actually fed my chickens catfood when they were molting, gave them extra protein for growing back their feathers.
