Chickens are small animals that lay [[Egg|eggs]]. The [[Small Chicken Coop]] houses 8 of them. Their preferred food is [[Corn|shucked corn]], but they will also eat unshucked corn. Much like the [[Cow]], they enjoy [[Silage]] in place of their normal food, which is more filling and thus will cause them to eat less often. They also enjoy an occasional treat in the form of a [[Tamale]] or a [[Purple Mountain Flower]]. Like all animals in Farmtown, they can be purchased from [[Pitchfork Jeb's Farmer Supply]] in the form of a [[Chicken Order]].
Chickens need food!!  To feed these chickens, you will need an [[oak feed trough]] or [[Automatic Feeding Trough]] from [[Pitchfork Jeb's Farmer Supply]]. You then drag [[Purple Mountain Flower]]/[[corn]]/[[tamale]]/[[cornmeal]]/[[silage]] into the  feeding trough.<br>

Chickens need attention too!!  Don't forget to pet them as well. As long as you pet and properly feed them, the chickens will grow and lay [[egg]]s, increasing in quality based on how loved they feel.  You can see how loved they are by pressing the action button near them after you have pet them. Pet will change to examine.<br>

Like all animals in Farmtown, they can be purchased from Pitchfork Jeb's Farmer Supply in the form of a Chicken Order.
