Minecraft wiki entry for Chicken, associated text: Chickens are active, wandering aimlessly, chicks also following adults. When falling, they flap their wings and fall slowly, thus they are immune to fall damage. However, they avoid falling off cliffs. When harmed, they flee around. Chickens uniquely attempt to jump up to climb stairs instead of climbing them normally.[1] They are attacked by ocelots, untamed cats,‌[JE only] and foxes. Chickens follow players holding various seeds within 6 blocks.
