Help with chickens!

YYEEESS!!! Never thought to look at my mail and there they were like a Sim week later. PHEW! thanks for this. Now I will do more trading. I only purchased 1 hen and 1 rooster and now I have 2 full coops that I just can't keep up with.

@jacknchloe I'm glad you got your chicken glitch'n fixed. If it happens again & restarting doesn't work you can always try shift-click and choose the 'destroy object' option; it should get rid of them.

I thought we can always trade them for pies?

And is it normal that relationship level is set back to zero when a chicken turns golden? Or another bug?

We had chickens for a few years when I was a kid. They are needy and not very cuddly. They are also seriously lacking in brains. The chickens we had were there primarily for eggs and, occasionally, dinner. I am delighted to have them in my game, but my sims are not making friends with them, at least for now. I'm too busy laughing every time the fox gets into the chicken coop. Love seeing those feathers fly! >:)

Edited to add: I don't know how I'll feel once the fox actually gets a chicken. By keeping them at arm's length I hope it won't bother me.

I also just got my first gold chicken, and the same thing happened. It was a shame, since my sim and Chickpea were at max friendship. I think maybe it was intentional as I was also prompted to rename the transformed chicken. I intentionally maxed out their friendships before transforming them... so much for that plan!

My Sim purchased a coop and two brown hens Mabel and Maple and two girl chicks Myrtle and Chic’n cousin Ethel. Chic’n cousin Ethel aged up to a white hen and its been half a year and Myrtle is still a chick. Should I be concerned? Can each coop only have three laying hens since there are three spots?

@mikamakimon i believe the golden hen is a whole other bird because if your chicken had an outfit you get it back when you get the golden hen. Not sure if it’s the same for Darth chicken or whatever it’s called.
