Chicken (Creature)

Chickens are the main source of food for your minions. They are produced in a Hatchery and will randomly walk around it until eaten by a creature. If you slap a chicken, it will explode. They can also explode themselves.
In Dungeon Keeper, you can force-feed chickens to creatures or prisoners to heal them. Although, like other creatures, they can be picked up and even possessed (although you have no control over its actions), Chickens are not in fact internally creatures, but objects. Possessed chickens cannot be eaten.
In Dungeon Keeper, feeding a creature a chicken heals them for 50 health. Below is a small table detailing how many chickens each creature would need to be fully healed (rounded up).
