Why doesn't it lay Golden eggs?

CookieMonster · Post Posted: Jun 06, 2009 9:51 am

Heya everyone!

I read on the site that to be able to get your chicken to lay golden eggs, it has to win the Chicken Sumo festival and have 8-10 hearts.
My chicken won it before, but it had only got 3 hearts by that time so it continued laying small eggs.
Now, it has finally got 8 hearts and yet it's just laying large eggs.
Shouldn't it lay Golden eggs by now or do I have to win the festival again in order to get it?

Answers would be appreciated!

Technically, it should be laying gold eggs by now, but sometimes just waiting a while does the trick. Just wait a few days or until the chicken's at 9 hearts. It should start laying golden eggs soon.

Yeah, it worked after waiting a few days like you said!
But it started to lay P-eggs instead of golden.. ;p
But thanks for your answer! :D

Oh yay, P eggs are even better :D You must've been letting your chickens outside a lot. And you're welcome.

P-eggs are even better than golden eggs so dont worry about it!

If the chicken has been out for more than 600 hours and hasa 8-10 hearts, and is a festival winner it will lay P eggs instead, they sell for more, and your chicken has a 1 in 255 chance of laying an X egg, which sells for a lot more. Good unless you want to complete the shipping list, then you'll have to use another chicken.

It always puzzled me how come other chickens competing in the Chicken Festival always were of different colours.......

Maybe they got chickens at a different store where they sell different colored eggs.

Speaking of p eggs, 600 hours divded by 24 hours = 25 days. So it would take 25 days for a golden egg layer to become a p egg layer, right?

You could say so

It takes that much in total, not counting storms or bad weather where the chickens shouldnt be out.
