The '''Chicken''' is a farm [[Animals|animal]] that lives in a [[Coop]]. Up to the limits of coop housing capacity already built on the farm, chickens can be purchased from [[Marnie's Ranch]] for {{Price|800}} or hatched from [[Egg]]s in an [[Incubator]]. Upon purchase or hatching, chickens must be assigned to a coop and named, and the game provides a default name if you don't want to choose it yourself.

 +
The '''Chicken''' is a farm [[Animals|animal]] that lives in a [[Coop]]. Chickens can be purchased at [[Marnie's Ranch]] for {{Price|800}} or hatched by placing an [[Egg]] into an [[Incubator]], taking {{duration|9,000m (5d 16h 40m)|class=inline}} to incubate, or {{duration|4,500m (2d 21h 40m)|class=inline}} with the [[Farming#Farming Skill|Coopmaster Profession]]. Additionally, two chickens are present on the farm by default on the Meadowlands [[Farm Map]].
   −
Chickens are colored White, Brown, or Blue (the blue variety can be obtained only after seeing [[Shane]]'s 8-heart event). The color of the chicken is assigned randomly by the game when it is bought or hatched, so after restarting a day you may get a chicken of another color than on the first run. White chickens produce white eggs, and brown chickens produce brown eggs, so it does make a difference if you are trying to complete the Community Center [[Bundles]]. Blue chickens produce eggs of a color that is randomly determined by the game each time.
+
==Color==
 +
Chickens are colored White, Brown, or Blue. The Blue variety can be obtained only after seeing [[Shane]]'s 8-heart event. The color of the chicken is assigned randomly by the game when a chicken is purchased.
   −
==Care==
+
The color of a chicken is shown during purchase from Marnie's Ranch, while selecting a coop. A message is shown stating "Choose a Coop for your new White/Brown/Blue Chicken". Cancelling the purchase returns the player to the purchase window, where they can try again for the desired color.
−
Hatchlings or just-purchased chickens do not need to be fed on the day they arrive on the farm, although they respond as normal to petting. Afterwards, babies and adults require the same care and amounts of food. Baby chicks that are given food reach maturity on the third day after hatching or purchase. Beginning the fourth day, adult chickens that were fed the day before produce an egg apiece every morning.
+
 
−
+
An [[Incubator]] will hatch a brown chicken from a [[Egg|Brown Egg]] and a white chicken from a regular Egg (or the corresponding Large variants). This means blue chickens cannot be obtained using an Incubator.<ref>See <samp>Data/FarmAnimals.xnb</samp> in the game files, specifically <samp>EggItemIds</samp>, which are the valid egg items for each animal type.</ref>
−
Chickens eat hay, which can be purchased from Marnie or harvested from grass. If there is grass in the yard outside the coop and you open the coop door to let them outside, they will eat the grass rather than hay, and receive a mood boost as well. This option is not available in winter (when there is no grass), and during that season they will not venture outside even if the doors remain open.
+
 
 +
White and blue chickens produce white eggs, and brown chickens produce brown eggs, so it makes a difference in completing the [[Community Center]] [[Bundles]], especially if [[Options#Advanced Options|Remixed Bundles]] is not chosen at start of game.
    
==Produce==
 
==Produce==
−
The '''Chicken''' can produce a (White) [[Egg]] or [[Egg|Brown Egg]] every morning. Once sufficient [[Animals#Friendship|friendship]] and happiness is reached, a chicken can produce a [[Large Egg]] or [[Large Egg|Large Brown Egg]] which sells for {{Price|95}}.  
+
{{main article|Animals#Produce}}
 +
Chickens who eat every day mature after 3 nights have passed. A mature and fed chicken produces a white or brown [[Egg]] every day, which can be placed in an [[Incubator]] to hatch another chicken, or sold for {{Price|50}}. Once sufficient [[Animals#Friendship|friendship]] and happiness is reached, it has a chance to produce a [[Large Egg]] or [[Large Egg|Large Brown Egg]] which sells for {{Price|95}}.
   −
Eggs can also be placed in the [[Mayonnaise Machine]] to produce [[Mayonnaise]], which sells for {{Price|190}} or {{Price|285}} depending on quality.

[[File:BlueChick.png|75px|thumb|A blue chick]]After seeing [[Shane]]'s 8-heart event, each chicken you purchase from [[Marnie]] or hatch from a brown or white egg has a 1/4 chance of being blue. Aside from appearance, blue chickens are identical to regular white and brown chickens.
+
[[File:BlueChick.png|75px|thumb|A blue chick]]After seeing [[Shane]]'s 8-heart event, each chicken you purchase from [[Marnie]] has a 25% chance of being blue. Aside from appearance, blue chickens are identical to regular white and brown chickens. One subtle benefit to this alternative color is that blue chickens are much easier to spot in a field of grass.
 +
 
 +
Blue chickens are hatched as blue chicks.
 +
 
 +
==Selling==
 +
It is possible to sell Chickens. The amount of [[gold]] obtained for doing so is dependent on how many hearts the animal has. The more hearts; the higher amount of gold fetched for selling it. The amount of gold obtained for selling a maximum-heart Chicken is {{Price|1040}}.
 +
 
 +
To sell a coop or barn animal, right-click the animal after petting. The friendship/mood interface appears. Move the cursor over the gold coin button at the right to see how much you can sell the animal for. Click that button and the confirmation that follows to complete the sale.
 +
 
 +
==Trivia==
 +
*Blue chickens may be a reference to "Cojiro", one of a species of chicken called "cucco" in the game "[[wikipedia:The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time|The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time]]".
 +
*A blue chicken egg was added to the game [[wikipedia:Terraria|Terraria]] with ConcernedApe's permission in October 2022.
   −
Blue chickens are hatched as blue chicks. As of v1.2, the top of the screen will display the color of chicken at the time of purchase or hatching.  If you are trying for a blue chicken and don't get one, you can exit and restart that day.
+
==References==
   −
Blue chickens may also be a reference to "Cojiro", a similar blue cucco from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time.
