I would suggest using barley if you are growing your own. It doesn't matter what grain it is, they will still just eat 5-7. So barley yields the most per hectare.

Barley is also generally the cheapest to purchase from the stores if the map has it enabled such as No Mans Land if you are doing a start from scratch style play through.

The spreadsheet at the end. It was a nice and concise way to present the experimental data you'd accumulated and summarize your results. Showing your setup and explaining how you proceeded was good too.

I know I’m super late to this video but I’ve started playing recently and I think your Farming Sim 22 videos are the best and most well made and easiest to understand!! I do have a bonus question for you though- is it possible to move existing chickens from one pen to another new facility once you buy one? Say for example adding an additional pin or full production hen house- or do you have to start fresh with each new one?
@affarmz2 ай бұрын
Glad you like them!, t this time there is no way to move chickens from pen to pen unless there is a mod or a modded barn, you cant transport via trailer etc, thanks for watching, appreciate it!

In an older game of FS19 I had 2 5000 chicken barns (mod) But I was only growing enough for about 2000 birds so whenever they reproduced I’d get slammed with grain consumption. It was epic… but I couldn’t keep up growing enough grain for them. A multifruit buying station mod would have been a perfect solution for my needs! but I never got that far before FS22 and haven’t done chickens since 😂

@joshuadoll90009 ай бұрын
So because you didn't test it I wanted to see if the same value of 0 month chickens or 6 month chickens would be more profitable so I took a pen with 10 0 month chickens and 1 6 month chicken. After 36 months the 0 month chicken pen produced 34,860 eggs while the 6 month pen produced 14,630 eggs. Since chickens are so cheap it's not that expensive to fill the pen but if you theoretically couldn't afford to fill the pen you'd be better off to purchase more 0 month chickens which will fill the pen faster and produce more eggs faster.

I play just the base game. With 2 coops, I make around 150k every year on normal economy. But I will have to pay some for the food, and take some time to move all the pallets. Most of my time is manually moving the pallet. Other time is to wait till my barley farm work to be done. Properly, if I build a new coop every year, the profits will increase but the amount of manual pallet moving will increase. Overall, it’s quite profitable, just not fully automated.

There is a egg shipping mod that allows you to transport eggs directly to production chains, auto load trailers are also a good option to cut back on the manual handling, Thanks for watching!

Great video, just stumbled upon your channel, and have subbed. Can you move chickens from one coop to another one? Say coop #1 is full of chooks, can you build a second one, move a number of chooks across so that can keep building up the numbers?

Hi Phil, currently on console there is no way to transport chickens from coop to coop that I am aware of, on PC there might be mods that allow you to do that. Would be a nice feature in fit could be added to all platforms. Thanks for watching 🙏

so the better for eggs, 360 chickens of 0 months or 360 chikens of 6 months, in every coop?

If you go 360, 6 month old chickens they will produce maximum volume eggs right away, I usually run 3 coup, that way I get 18 egg pallets every day

Do you need to buy new chickens after 36 months for Pen 7 method ?
@affarmz10 ай бұрын
No, because the chickens are 12 months old to begin with so they will start producing eggs right away. And because there is 360 of them the pen is full so no more will reproduce. This strategy is all about max egg production. Thanks for watching 🙏
