Duck and goose eggs

[Warmonger696]

Well I bought 10 of each and they started laying eggs okay-ish which could be gathered at the place they normally sleep. But after a while (and 2 crashes) no new eggs appeared but in my farm statistics there are a few dozen uncollected eggs (definitely not from the hens).
I wasn't sure if this should go into bug reports so I chose to post it here first, maybe others had similar experiences.

yep, my game is the same

[mpear1]

after reloading a save check for eggs ,but only works for that day

[SwordsOfTheSouth_Toplitz]

Will look into this!

[GamerGirlDK]

I also have this problem

[Tryst49]

Day 1 All geese and ducks laid eggs.
Day 2 Only 2 duck eggs.
Day 3 Nothing at all.

same here but mine was a little different i bought 10 geese only got 5 geese showed up in the barn on day 1 next day they were all there but only 4 eggs

[Warmonger696]

That's intended IIRC, they are not supposed to lay eggs every other day like the hens. But they shouldn't stop altogether...

I have the same problem and with me disappear the whole and ducks now and then

[loki gallach]

ducks and geese now working correctly for me.
neighbors buildings are missing walls however.

But I can not prepare them in the kitchen. Are they only for sale as they are?

With the Eggs its the same for me, cant find them, but the encounter of eggs increase day by day

[ladalmor]

Also can't find the eggs.... Almost like My real hens and ducks 😂

when i safe the game and load it there appear eggs under the ducks but when collected they don't dissapear from the statistic, probably could do this infinite (safe-load-collect), problem is i can't find recipes to use them and raw food isn't much worth in the game

There are always a few eggs each day that cannot be found. I attribute this to the free roaming of the birds. It is common, even IRL to not be able to find all eggs.

You should right off be able to can the eggs, which does provide some improvement over raw. The recipe books are located around the world. You should be able to purchase one from John's store right next to your farm. The September Festival dealer has another recipe book for sale during that event. Another book is sold by random NPC's, that wander about. Most players have reported finding their copy while talking to NPC's in the town of Redberry.
