  4. Hello! I absolutely love your mod and have been enjoying it in my game. However, when I place the egg cartons in world and click “Open egg carton” the Sim doesn't do anything and the option goes away. I've tried with several Sims and several different cartons and can't open any of them.

  5. Hi! I love your mod so much. I just installed it and I've been enjoying using it in my game. I'm having an issue getting my sims to open the egg cartons though. When I place them in world and click “Open egg carton” the Sim doesn't do anything and the interaction disappears. I've tried with several Sims and several egg cartons and haven't had any luck opening them. All the other interactions work.

  9. Ever since the latest game updates, the chicken coop no longer has any interactions for me other than “view” or “put in inventory”. Is there any plans to update this mod? or is there something else wrong that I could fix?

  14. Hi there. I've just downloaded the chicken coop (after latest update). Thank you for making it, I've been looking forward to playing with it. Only problem is, I can't find the coop in buy mode. It shows when I search as in outdoor activities but isn't there. I tried show all but still cannot see it. Please advise me. I can see the easter eggs and chicken feed. Probably something really obvious but I'm struggling! Thank you.

  16. OMG you are so amazing for creating this wonderful mod for us, thank you so much!!!But I don't know what is wrong, it is not working for me. When I put the coop on my lot for the first time, my sim feeds the chickens but does not use the chicken feed that is in the inventory. After that the option to check the eggs appears but they are never ready.I already took all the mods out from the mod folder to test it and nothing changes. Help me please?!

  17. I seem to be having a glitch where only the legs of the chickens are animated. As in the chickens can be seen sitting in their coop, and just their legs are wandering around. Any ideas on what could be causing that?

  18. The mod works for me, the only thing is that when child sims go interact with the coop, unless they're just telling a story, their body stretches out like an adult, so it looks funny.

  19. Hi! Thanks for the cute mod! I have a couple of questions: when my sim finds Easter eggs and the game says the eggs are in the sim's inventory, I can't see any egg in neither of the inventories. Also, I did not find any normal eggs at all is there any specific aspects? Like if the sims sleeps and the time flow increases x3, does it affect? Thanks!

  20. is anyone else experiencing issues with the chicken coop taking 2-3 days to produce the eggs? i have no mods/script mods in my game- only cc. i have tried EVERY version of the V2 chicken coop (this was never an issue with the V1 coop) i have tried testing the coop in a different save file, and sadly that did nothing..I HAVE NOT advanced any time through cheating/mcc etc. this issue has only happened since the version 2 was released for the mod and I have seen at least 2 others say they've experienced the same issue. Is anyone aware of a fix for this? PLEASE help! 😦

  22. Hi! First of all, I really LOVE all of your creations! I just had one quick question, are you able to buy more than one chicken per coop? I saw it said one chicken per sim but I didn't see a prompt for a second chicken on a different sim so I figured I'd just ask to see if I read that wrong or if I'm doing it wrong. Thanks!!!
