A man was driving along the motorway when he noticed a chicken running alongside his car. He was amazed to see the chicken keeping up with him, as he was doing 60 mph. He accelerated to 70, and the chicken stayed right next to him. He sped up to 75 mph, but the chicken overtook him. Then the man noticed that the chicken had three legs. So he followed the chicken, speeding all the way, and ended up at a farm. He got out of his car and saw that all the chickens on the farm had three legs.When he spotted the farmer he asked him, “Where did you get these chickens?” The farmer replied “Well, everybody likes chicken legs, so I bred a three-legged bird. I’m going to be a millionaire.” The man was impressed and asked him how they tasted. The farmer said, “Don’t know, I haven’t caught one yet.”
Free range chickens wander a fenced and rooved chicken yard. Releasing them into a pasture would guarantee predation and never finding eggs. (A couple of Kestrels in our area perch on the chicken wire over the neighbors chickens.)
Actually, chickens can fly so that fence wouldn’t confine them if they desired to free range. The average chicken can reach heights of about 10 feet and can span distances of 40-50 feet. The longest recorded flight of a modern chicken lasted 13 seconds for a distance of just over three hundred feet. [Source: www.hgtv.com]

Those who live in captivity can resent those who live in freedom when there seems to be no hope for them to have freedom themselves.

Specially the three legged ones…
