Void chickens.
So I had the event that turnedo ne of my eggs into a void egg. I hatched it and got a void chicken.

After looking to see what they do, the eggs don't really do much, but make a few people super happy.

So I got to thinking. A 5 heart chicken (void or regular) sell for 1040 I believe was the value, so is it worth buying the single chicken, upgrading your coop, hatching the eggs to give you max chickens/ducks/whatever and as they reach 5 hearts sell them and hatch new eggs. It's like an endless cycle of gold.

Does this seem liek a decent idea, or am I grasping at a way to buy the 25k backpack. ;p

It would be, if the crops weren't broken good money :P Unfortunately crops sell far too well in comparison with animals and animal products.

So you want to went through all the trouble bring it to 5 heart, and sell it just for that little extra money? just plant crop really, or even fishing have better profit then it.

Animal in this game does not really profit much, just need them for collection and bundle.

I do the fishing, and crops. I've got crops in my Greenhouse, and on the farm, but I was just thinking it's something a little extra. Besides it's not really any trouble, as I go and give attention to my animals each day and collect their goods anyway.

Twus just a thought. ;P

Yeah just do tons of crops, use all your energy to convert money into seeds all season long. I usually spend all my money at the start of the month on seeds.

Get them all in the ground, then start working on getting kegs and preserving jars going. As many as you can really, but starting out with a few is good.

The first spring I didn't do much of that, but by the first fall no crops went into the shipping container without being processed first. The mark up is crazy, like 100-200%, then all winter long I worked through all my old crops I was hanging onto from summer/fall. It is tempting to put that 50 stack of blueberries in the shipping container, but instead I took around 150 into fall and just made them all into wine and jam for amazing profit.

From that method I had a gold watering can and everything else steel, the best backpack, the first house upgrade, first barn upgrade, a big coop, and a stable all by my the end of my first winter.

It would be great but 1040g is rubbish for the effort and time, it would take 1/2 months(?) to get to 5 hearts +the animal products income.

They really need to buff the income from selling animals by ten times or more.
