I breed chickens about 1.5 months. This is my top. Should it be raised?

Mine have gone up a little faster than that, although it might have to do with how we're selecting breeding chickens. I'm sitting at Q24 average or so after breeding for a month.

But I do agree, it seems a little too slow. Right now I'm not sure, but I think livestock might actually go up faster.

Yeah, the water quality cap hurts chicken growing pretty bad. But if it wasn't in place, winged helms would need to be nerfed.

Does it? Water quality averages with fodder quality. Assuming Q10 water, my average quality is sitting at around Q45. I'd assume most villages could keep their fodder+water average higher than the chickens with a dedicated farmer.

I'll admit I could see it becoming an issue if the chickens got sped up. Or at least it'd be a limit of ~fodder/2 as max chicken Q

QL Randomizes when it breeds, sometimes it goes a bit down sometimes up. But it "should" go up more often than down.-
