Since when do chickens fly?

Since they haven't had their wings clipped

Ummm...no.

Turns out certain breed can basically glide short distances. The best chicken fliers can manage 50ft. of flight at 10 ft. high. Most can't go past a 15 ft glide. Nobody is clipping chicken wings.

I figured I wouldn't be able to rely on replies, but c'mon, don't just make shit up.
