The longest recorded flight of a chicken is 13 seconds

In 1973, a chicken named Mike flew for 13 seconds before landing safely back on the ground. This remarkable feat was recorded by the Guinness World Records, and it remains the longest recorded flight of a chicken to this day. Mike's flight was achieved in the presence of a witness, and the record has been verified by Guinness officials. This bizarre record has been cited in various sources, including the book "Guinness World Records: Amazing Animal Records".
