It is depend on how important the Chatter data, is it for Chatter group or feed linked to records or ALL? It maybe quite troublesome as you need to find correct object and groups and records.
prefer do it in sandbox to make sure you are migrate it correctly

Another method you can try 

You can use the Data Loader to export/import Chatter data

Thank you Matthews for your reply
we have to migrate User and Group feeds and as you said we are doing it now in sandbox only. and the data is very important.

i am using Informatica ETL tool for this migration. i am able to get the group and user details of feeds. the only problem is how to get the @mentions in the posts , so that we can do the same in target org also

Hi Ega, you could use the Chatter Connect api to access/post @mention infomation ( can use either REST or Apex to do so )  you can find examples on how to post/get mentions with rest here  http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/chatterapi/

Thx,
Domenico.
