I'm not even sure how many chickens I can fit on my current hard drive, but it's probably more than the number of persons I can fit.

Okay, but what company measures hard drives in chickens?
Impossible to say how the screenshot came about. At some point, the semantics of someone's data was misinterpreted. Something was called a hard drive when it isn't, something was treated as a capacity when it isn't
Just as a matter of interest, at the time of the screenshot I opened one of the "chickens" results and combed the page but failed to find any instance of the word (singular or otherwise). Today and yesterday, several people have asked me for the "chickens" results, which are sadly fewer now; however, one still exists within the constraints of the filters I applied. I still can find no instance of the word on the product page.
I'm sure the word "chicken" appears somewhere in the metadata, but it's still a failure of the system and the UX.
