I want to hatch eggs in my chicken coop but they always spoil and, inevitably, one of the household members comes by and throws them away. I've been trying to prevent them from doing so, but it's easy to miss and sometimes cancelling the action doesn't work! I've tried over and over but I keep running out of hatchable eggs, and it's especially frustrating because all of my chickens are elders now so I'm running out of time. Is there anything that can be done about this?
@Born4Randomness The only workaround at the moment is to clean the coop, put down plenty of food, put the egg(s) in to incubate and then remove all access to it until the eggs are ready to hatch. If you have a fence, lock the gate for all sims. If you don’t have a fence, add one. The eggs can still hatch after spoiling as long as your sims are unable to access them to throw them out. The rest of your chickens may be mad about the dirty coop by then, depending on how many you have, but at least you’ll have chicks.
