Ghasts can be shot in the face and not be damaged, but hitting their tentacles will hurt them. This makes no sense. Their hitbox is obviously out of place, and it has been out of place since alpha 1.2. Chicken hitboxes are too small. I have hit chickens in the face, and they weren't damaged at all. I can only kill them by hitting their legs. That's very unrealistic. I'm surprised that these mobs have been broken for so long.

I dont really know what you're talking about. I'm able to bullseye chickens from probably 30 blocks away (random estimate) the only reason they're hard to punch is because they're small and move around a lot. I don't think ghasts have a problem either, i have heard that arrows will sometimes pass through ghasts, but otherwise i think it's fine.

I have caught a chicken standing still for a second and I punched it in the head and in the torso. It didn't take damage.
Also, shooting a ghast in the face will hurt it if the arrow goes through its face and falls onto its tentacles.

Well the Ghast hitbox being out of place is recorded as a bug on the Minecraft Wiki. I have also experienced that. As for the chickens... Does it matter? Unless you are surrounded by hostiles and REALLLY need a feather.

Ghast hitboxes are inherently broken, but it really isn't that hard to hit them with arrows because they're above you; the arrows will probably hit the tentacles first and thus cause damage. While I agree that the hitbox should be fixed, for the time being I'd recommend simply aiming for the tentacles and not the face.
Chickens aren't broken, they're just so small that their hitbox is difficult to hit. xD Personally I find it easier to make a hostile mob trap and farm feathers that way.

I have all these problems too, I agree!
