Chickens - Feeding, Watering and collecting eggs?

Post by rpge0118 »

I suspect there may be a "simple" answer to the following questions but I can't find it!

1. How do I get into the Chicken run without having to jump the fence? The gate doesn't want to open?

2. How do I get water and feed to the Chickens? Tried putting water and feed trailers up close the fence.

Thanks

1.cant open the gate.
2. As far as I know unless you use a mod, chickens don't need you to water or feed them :)

Hi

I always jump the fence as i've found no other way. The chickens dont need water or feeding just collect all the eggs and sell them to any place in the town that has an egg outside of it.

When playing a mod map, the first thing i do is use giants editor to delete the chicken's... they take up valuable realestate and just annoy me...

Although i do agree with RODHA... who dosen't think chickens are yummy!!!

Giants should make chickens manageable in the core game, without mods. I don't understand why they waste real estate with something that isn't even half useful.
IMHO, chickens should be watered, fed, and lay their eggs in a pen for easy collection (or however it's done irl). We should be able to transport chickens that we are buying or selling and there should be a designated factory/market. We should also have the option to leave the eggs to hatch for breeding.

Both the water pump and Water tank will no fill my chickens water dish, causing them to all die. The message that pops up (flashing red) says, “The maximum capacity of the feeding through suffices to feed animals for 2 days.”. And the dish doesn’t fill. What do I do the fix this?
