All animals must consume portions of feed in order to breed. {{Using|Placing}} 8 [[dry grass]] or 2 [[grain]] into a trough players can feed animals. Both male and female animals must eat until they become saturated. The {{BlockInfo}} shows the level of saturation when a player looks at an animal. It will also show the creature weight, generation, whether an animal is ready to breed, and if it may disappear due to darkness. | All animals must consume portions of feed in order to breed. {{Using|Placing}} 8 [[dry grass]] or 2 [[grain]] into a trough players can feed animals.

[[Chicken]]s will only eat grain placed in [[Boards|small troughs]]. Hens need to reach a satiety of 6 before they are ready to mate. For now, baby chicks are ''not'' preceded by eggs - they appear like other baby animals. The pregnancy takes 9 days for the hen and there will be 1-2 chicks, with a "cooldown" of 6-9 days before the next pregnancy. The chicks will grow up after 168 hours, with a 90% chance for more hens and only a 10% chance for a new rooster.<br> | [[Chicken]]s will only eat grain placed in [[Boards|small troughs]].

Hens will lay eggs on the ground every 8-15 in-game days, which can be used in cooked foods but do not have any impact on breeding new chickens. Players should collect the eggs regularly, as they disappear within 2 days. | Hens will lay eggs on the ground every 8-15 in-game days, which can be used in cooked foods but do not have any impact on breeding new chickens.
