Chicken behavior

  • The thread from Ozorvals about collision mechanics got me thinking about the general behavior of chickens.

    I think it would be nice if a chicken sat on its egg after laying it.

    That way, if you saw a chicken settling down during the day, you’d know it had laid an egg—and if you didn't take it away quickly enough, a chick would hatch from it.

  • A straw nest where the hens prefer to lay their eggs would also be a good option; it would make player made nesting boxes functional.


    And let’s dream a little: giving the chickens a limited ability to fly (or "jump") to quickly flee from danger or reach a high perch, would make their behavior much more realistic.
