1) Chickens are non-secret content. They are closed source, but nothing about their mechanics is forbidden to be put on the wiki. I would both encourage and appreciate if people took the time to fill out the wiki with their testing, speculation, etc. My goal with this is to replicate some of the most fun I had at ss13 back when I started playing, which was the efforts to which players would collaborate to hypothesize and test how the game works and sharing their results on forums and the wiki.
2) Short answer: No.
The long answer here is that not every mutation has a clearly defined set of stats that could easily be standardized for such a tool. Health can easily be ascertained already with a regular medical scanner. Happiness can be checked by petting the chicken a few times and seeing if it's happy. Hunger can be ascertained by feeding the chicken and seeing if it eats. Just like a real animal.
3) Short answer: No
Long answer here is that the system is already incredibly fast. It's hard to tell sometimes, especially when you have a ton of chickens and don't track individual ones, but trust me: 99% of chickens can have their mutation conditions met *before the chicken even grows up* if you know a few simple techniques which I am happily awaiting someone putting on the wiki after in-game testing and discovery.
I know that these aren't the answers you were hoping for, but I hope you understand that the obfuscation of the systems aren't meant to frustrate you. They're meant to try to convince you to collaborate with other ranchers and talk about how you do things together.
