Some friends recently got started on Minecraft, so in honor of this I started a new Survival game with "Digging in the dirt" as my seed. Lots of rolling hills and lots of sheep near the spawn point. Seems I'm on an island as I explored the compass points till I hit large bodies of water so I've returned back to my spawn point base.
I have plenty of other livestock, but in all of my explorations I haven't seen one chicken. I'm surviving, but praying that every time I kill a skeleton that it drops arrows. I once had 14 arrows, but used them up quickly on creepers while exploring the cavern I have in my basement.
Chickens seem so ubiquitous on other worlds, but it's just so freaky not to find any here.
Maybe you're just really unlucky? Any mods installed?

Let’s play good guys against bad guys… Yes. Let’s play that. Are you ready? You’re the bad guy. And when you’re bad, you just run. That’s fine right? Well… Shall we play?
Seems to be a thing in some worlds. You just have to keep exploring new chunks. I've had worlds where there were pigs for kilometers around, but not a single sheep, cow, or chicken. Just the random generation being itself.
I think each world I spawn in has one animal type that is more difficult to find. Unfortunately, sheep is never one of them. In my current map, it's pigs.
Numerical seed for this world is -781603218. I ended up losing 15 levels when I opened a wall to a lava chamber, while standing in a pit. But I was getting frustrated, after digging a few hours total, in the bottom of the world, and throwing away dozens of stacks of cobblestone, I have yet to find one diamond. This is now what concerns me most, as I'm not seeing any diamond ore blocks in the ravine or lava chamber walls as I have previously on other worlds.
I did finally find where the chickens were, when I was exploring the red dots on my map.
I may take a break from this world and go back to my original one with my above the clouds tower.
