[CoL] Chickens never show up inside the coop

I found from other gameplay reviews that when it's 5 AM, Rooster will show up for a wake-up call. But in my game, it never appears. Only has the sound of a rooster.

Moreover, hens never come to sit and lay eggs in the place I drew red circles.

This pic is 5 AM when the rooster should appear, but it still has only the sound.

They still show up walking outside the coop. My problem is that they don't show up relaxing in the coop.

This issue was tested in the new save of the new game folder without mods. I also asked in The Sims 4 Gameplay Questions & Issues, but no response. So, I asked people in DM and General Discussions to check, and they couldn't see the chicken in the coop either.

Because it's the first time I had chicken, I didn't know when this visual bug happened. But I think it may be after the latest EbN patch (1.116), because I still saw the chicken appear properly before that.

If it's not a bug or there is a workaround to fix this, please let me know. Thank you so much!

    Thank you so much for confirming this issue! My main save is modded, so I worried that it may be only in my save. But after trying without the mod, I'm sure that it's a thing.

    I might not have realized this issue if I hadn't watched YouTubers' reviews about chicken before. I want to see the rooster crowing, so it's so upsetting not to see it.

    I have the same issue in my save too.  I don't know precisely when the chickens and rooster stopped appearing either, since I currently have two chicken coops in a barn.  I do also have the audio of the rooster crowing but the rooster doesn't appear, and even though I can't see the chickens in the coop, they do exit from the coops in the morning to walk around.

    I play on PC and have never used mods or cc.
