A nonzero number of goats, each with four legs, and a nonzero number of chickens, each with two legs, are living on a farm. Between all the animals, there are 1/3 as many heads as there are legs. Assuming that all animals have all of their limbs, what is the fewest possible number of chickens on the farm?
