Key Features
Magical Chicken Coop
Functionality: The chicken coop can be crafted and placed in the world, where it begins a hidden process of egg production. Though no chickens are visible, the coop is believed to be visited by chickens when no one is watching.
Pickup Ability: The coop can be picked up by the player at any time before it is ready for harvest. This allows flexibility in farm management without losing progress.
Harvest Indicator: The chicken coop comes with a visual indicator that shows when it is ready for harvest. The coop will visually “pop up” when it’s ready to be harvested, signaling that eggs and feathers can now be collected. After harvesting, the coop will “drop back down,” resetting to start the process over again.
Lore and Immersion: The coop appears to be empty, but the magic of the game world suggests that chickens visit under the cover of darkness or when you’re not looking, leaving behind eggs and feathers.
Harvesting the Coop
Harvest State: After a certain amount of time, the coop becomes ready for harvest, yielding eggs and feathers for the player. The transition from a growing state to a harvestable state is seamless, and the coop can be harvested for its valuable resources.
Resources Gained: Upon harvesting the coop, players will receive eggs and feathers, vital for crafting and survival in the game.
Integration With Progression
Crafting Skill Integration: The chicken coop is integrated into the game’s crafting progression system. Players must reach a certain level in farming-related skills to unlock the ability to craft the coop, making it a rewarding addition to advanced farming setups.
Unlocking the Coop: Once the required level is reached, players gain access to the recipe, allowing them to craft and place chicken coops on their farms.
Technical Details
Server-Side Only: This mod is designed to be server-side only, meaning no client-side download is necessary. Players will automatically experience the benefits of the mod without needing to install anything on their end.
Uses in game assets: In order to make it server side, I had to do this. Hence the dog crate! lol.

The cages are large and the building is unnecessarily large, it needs to be changed to nests, what is the waiting time actually?
2 days and no eggs anywhere. During that time I collected more than 100 eggs around the map.
I have taken the cages x times by mistake, it is necessary to set there to hold down the E key for a longer time and to offer an offer to take the cage.
The idea is ok, but I deleted the mod, it is useless for us.
You are the first complaint about it. Appreciate the feedback though, will keep it in mind. If you have issues or need help, read the post and join my discord for it.
the idea is great 😀 but instead of cages, the nests and a light bulb would be ideal, and when the red light is still empty, and when the green light is on, it would be ready 😀 (or literally, to catch the hen by hand and bring it to enclosures, let’s say that there would be a maximum of 5 of them and the eggs would be picked in the nest 😀 )
Both links are currently dead?
That’s aren’t dead now. But you can also look at the comments to download if needed.
if i right understand, it work only in server side and not in solo game ? and when the cage is empty it be cut in half and when is full (or ready to harvest) it will be full part ?
You can use it on solo. And correct. I have set it to when it needs harvested, it pops up and when it’s not ready it sinks down. Mainly for visual representation
I have sent into the Mods a fix file and removed other links. Until they can update it, I have them posted here (2 links as required by the Mod team!) There was a bug with the crafting so I had to adjust.
