Farming chickens?

Postby fujisteak » Thu Dec 08, 2011 6:45 pm

Hello.

I was wondering how to make a chicken coop so I can start farming chickens. I have the animal husbandry skill and I have a cock, a hen, and a chick, all alive. I also built a food trough but I still don't have the option to make a chicken coop.

Ey Sab, if I fill the coop up to the brim with food, how long until it needs more food or everything dies? I'm always reluctant to raise poultry because my sporadic gameplay means they almost always die.

Where will I get that? XD

Do I need farming for it? If so where would I get the seeds to start growing the wheat?

So presumably a lot longer if I leave it with one hen and one cock surrounded by the starved carcasses of their family. Cool beans.
