Can A Chicken Walk Backwards?

This morning, when my Dad carried me to the bus station by bike, we met a chicken, a very big one, a rooster, crossed the street like he wanted to push himself to our bike. 

Then my Dad said, "It is always like this. I wonder why every chicken loves to push himself to every vehicle he meets."

I then remember some rats i have met, they always always acted like they had suicidal tendencies by pushing theirself to my car even if i have stopped. One question passed in my mind, can they even walk backwards? 

I have googled it but there is no exact information, some said that chicken couldn't walk backwards but there are also videos that show that they could! Well i guess it depends on the chicken's mood then..
