I think I need a better way to manage my chickens.

Now all you need to do is get them all trained in release and you have an expandable army!

Chickens have no intelligence. You cannot train them.

Nearly lost a colony to Chickens. I wondered  were all my grain went, which I was using to feed my colonists. Might have had something to do with the 460 odd chickens. It also explained why my lap top was lagging to hell!

Yeah, I know how that feels, I have had 300 chicks at times, it's fun to watch 75 eggs hatch at one and then see them all spread out

I get tons of silver for selling my extra chickens.  They're a money maker for sure!  The eggs also help in times where meat might be scarce (or maybe butchering extra chickens, but I'd rather get $$ for them).  You can make fine meals with eggs and veggies.

With me, I do both, what I do is have two rooms, one to make chicks, one to make eggs for food

Every. Damn. Time.
Those chickens don't have morals and decency...damn, I wish I were a chicken.

And yes, they are great for money making and additional food, if you need it.

Maybe Agricultural wares should be trading with other colonies. As each colony has a location, limit their stock to stuff found in just that location.

So that Hostile tribe you've been gunning down are the only source of say, Alpaca's... suddenly you have an incentive to make friends with them and maintain relations.
