90 chickens=$45
9 goats=$45
1 cow=10
Now how are you going to feed them all???

Here's one solution...
90 Chicks -> $45
9 Goats -> $45
1 Cow -> $10
100 animals -> $100
The # of chicks has to be a multiple of 10.
Why? You need to end up with $100 even, so you can't have decimals, and you only can move by $5 increments with goats.
The # of goats has to be odd. Because the cost for chicks will be $X5 where 5 is always the last digit because of the above.

Do you need to have at least so many of each animal?

I agree with Acroblast. Chickens are food.
