Yeah we had chickens in a cupboard... full cupboard of live chickens.
Logged out for the night, came back, they're still there. We just finished building our coop about a day later, came back, buncha dead chickens. That was weird till we realized: Living animals need important things, like food, water, and oxygen. None of which, apparently, are available in a cupboard.
Who knew.
Sill, to threadjack: I want free-range poultry options! And no, don't just say wild spawn.
Chickens in free-range environments use troughs... kinda... sorta...
