Ok, so when 1.0.0 first started, I made farms in my little village, for cows, sheep, and chickens. Most all have been fine and stayed in there pens, but the chickens seem to be escaping all the time. The pens have a 5x5 area for the animals, and has 1 gate.
Do the pens need to be bigger? do the fences need to be taller? Do I need to set up chicken farms in a different way?
Any help is much welcomed.
Thanks!

Being one fence tall, they only escape when you hurt them. They get super abilities and jump higher when freaking out.
They'll escape regardless of whether or not they freak out. I had a bunch of chickens in a pen, and everything was going fine until the server upgraded to 1.0.1. After that, they started escaping all the time.
The biggest thing is how thick the walls are. If they are pushing each other, the ge will save the coordinates when you log out then they might spawn plus or minus one unit in each direction. The fence already makes it two blocks high and the ground is the ground so those two directions are safe. Just make the walls two blocks thick so that if they do spawn in the wall tgey will have to go in and not out.

This can happen while you're in the chunk. No despawning/spawning necessary.
