    There are so many varieties that will match that description. I wouldn't know where to start. I do know one that comes to mind, and that would be lisbon bunching onions. They are absolutely delicious and grow in an unstoppable clump.

    As long as they have plenty of air circulation, which it sounds like it has, it should not be a problem. They will likely recover, and continue to grow at an odd angle.

    I am uncertain as to if you mean chicken feed or chicken feces.

    Putting chicken feed into your onions would be an utter disaster with weeds quickly taking over your onions.

    Chicken feces will need to be composted prior to using to avoid burning your plants, but it can be used once well composted.

    Could be small rodents, squirrels, chipmunks, or birds. Deer also have been known to find onions and eat them.

    Surround onions with a chicken wire enclosure. Try some of the ideas in the links below.

    Yes, you will want as much drainage as possible. It will be best to use an organic potting mix with amended compost, or other synthetic feed WITHOUT slow release nitrogen.
