Mod Details
- Require Sheep Breeding region development
* The Chicken farming feature will only apply to region that has the Sheep Breeding development unlocked
- Breed Chicken every 4 month
* Every 4 month, this mod will breed Chicken in the farms, each pair will yield exactly 1 Chicken.
* Capacity is limited by the area of the chicken coop extension, simply put it's only the backyard
* precisely for every 350_000 cm2 the building will get one extra capacity, you can play around with the console commands down the page.
* for comparison, the chicken coop extension shown in image below is are close to but at least 350_000 cm2, 700_000 cm2, 1_400_000 cm2, 2_100_000 cm2 respectively, the berry bush shows exactly the boundary that goes into calculation.

^ If you look closely, you can see that 3rd building has 4 chicken, and 4th building has 6 chicken.
* do note that the game already spawned 3 chicken by default, which mean you need at least 1_400_000 cm2 to have new chicken spawned.
* If the amount of Chicken already reached the capacity, If the farm have at least 2 residing family, the farm will get 1 egg for every excess.
- Monthly Yield
* Every month, this mod will give egg to Chicken farms according to current month interval.
* The amount is proportional to the amount of Chicken you have and the current month. the pool is split into 6.
* for example, a farm with 8 Chicken will yield you 8 Egg in span of 6 month, at least 1 each every month, January and February will yield 2, March will yield 1:
[ c1, c7 ] // 2 egg <- January
[ c2, c8 ] // 2 egg <- February
[ c3, xxx ] // 1 egg <- March
...
[ c6, xxx ] // 1 egg <- June
[ c1, c7 ] // 2 egg <- July
[ c2, c8 ] // 2 egg <- August
[ c3, xxx ] // 1 egg <- September
...
[ c6, xxx ] // 1 egg <- December
