Hypothetically speaking, if I confined 35 animals (mostly newborn poults, goslings, and peachicks) to a 33 tile pen/pasture, what might go wrong?

It's completely hypothetical, I only have 34.

They would kill each other due to being cramped.

Don't trust this toaster that much, it could be a villain in disguise.

As KittyTac said, animals kept in cramped spaces start spontaneous fights (and they don't even need booze). These fight may not necessarily be lethal, but if you keep them there fights will eventually thin the ranks until it's no longer cramped (I don't know what happen if young ones are produced meanwhile...).
