I would very much appreciate a source to that claim that Cocks make Hens produce eggs more frequently because I have yet to see anything mentioning this. However I did not consider the fact that hatching better Q eggs would produce higher Q chickens, so that alone is reason enough. I don't think there is anyway around the 24 hour timer though.

Sorry if i expressed poorly, english is not my first language.

This entire pharagraph:
In fact, fertilized real life eggs in low temperatures are just like not fertilized. But, i know that chickens produce a lot more of eggs if they have the male arround

refers to real life, real eggs, real feathers, and real chickens

The suorce i cuold point is that one day very far away i listened my grandma say such thing, and her has a lot (and i mean a LOT) of real chickens, so i think that it has to be true (for real life chickens)

must be a hormone/pheromone thing. It makes sense though.

It might make for a good game feature too: Having a male in the coop would increase egg production, at the cost of: A) one more beak to feed, and B) the need to stay vigilant to pull out eggs you want to use before they hatch.

most people would want some eggs to hatch. after all, q14 eggs are better than q12, and you're more likely to get em from a q14 chicken
Learn from the mistakes of others. You won't live long enough to make all of them yourself.

Chicken meat > eggs, and you can't fit any more hens if you remove the cock, so I don't see why would anyone make a cockless coop.

Well, i think that my chickens must be afraid of me, because real life chicken use to lay eggs far more quick, and even without taking the 1/3 phase of time

Well real life chicken are domesticated and purposefully bred for centuries to lay more eggs. H&H one's are just some wild birds you caught.
