Actually i really don't get why people are "afraid" (not sure if it's the right word) of these overgrown chickens. i mean i'm personally afraid of everything that moves in this game. So i like to cover in my base and level myself up till i get guns. I mean, probably these things are dangerous early game but once you get a shotgun all you need to do is shoot it in the face and your nightmare with freddy krueger Is over.
