There are many different animals that players can raise in Stardew Valley. Out of all them, chickens are most likely many players’ first animal in-game due to the relative cheapness of a coop made only for chickens.
Chickens in Stardew Valley produce eggs and big eggs. The size and quality of these eggs are dependent on the happiness of each chicken, which is affected by if they’re fed, warm, and pet by the player. Feeding the chickens however can be a mystery for newer players to the game.
With the chickens’ product quality being heavily dependent on whether or not they’re fed, it is very important for players to actively feed them. There are luckily two different foods that chickens will eat with both being in good supply on players’ Stardew Valley farms.
The first thing that chickens eat is grass. By grass, this doesn’t mean the firm plants that players can’t cross unless they cut it down with a scythe, but the long and soft grass that players can also cut down. In order to eat this however, players will need to let the chickens outside of their coops.
To open up a coop or any animal holding farm building, players need to stand outside the farm building. Next to the door that the players use to enter the building is a vertical door that can be opened with a right click or whatever button is mapped to players’ secondary action. This will let the animals leave the building. Animals, however, will not leave the building at night, if it is raining, or if it is winter in Stardew Valley. This means that they will not eat grass, either.
The other option for chicken food is hay. Hay can be purchased from Marnie for 50g each or harvested from grass by using a scythe. Players, however, can only harvest hay from grass if they have a silo that isn’t filled. Silos can be constructed like any other farm building through Robin.
In order to feed the chickens hay, players will need to place the hay on the feeding trough in the back of the coop. If players want to use hay from the silos on their Stardew Valley farm, they can get it from the box of hay located in the top left corner of the coop. Extra hay can also be put back in the silo through this box.
Once players upgrade their coop to the deluxe coop, an automatic hay feeder will be added. This means that hay will automatically be placed on the trough as long as there is hay in the silos.
Stardew Valley is available now on Android, iOS, PC, PS4, Switch, Xbox One.
