Aw, man. Oh well, it's still more than I had before. Yeah, animals aren't the best way to get money in the game, but you'll need the eggs and stuff later for bundles in the community center, as well as for cooking/gifts. As well as duck feathers when you upgrade.
You can build mayo machines, turn the eggs into mayo and earn 150g per. Especially if you feed and pet the chickens every day so their hearts go up, they start laying Large Eggs which turn into gold-star-ranked mayo which sells for 225g. If you upgrade to a Big Coop you get an incubator, where you can insert eggs and get moar chickinz, and you can also sell the chickens themselves - if you take the time to pet/feed them until they're at 5 hearts, they will fetch you 1040g.
Also, I am giving out romance bouquets to single people one after another and unlocking their 10-heart events while keeping Maru happy with cheesy cauli and regular make-outs, and it occurs to me that maybe Undertale had a point about competionist gamers being the ultimate evil. ...but I want ten non-deteriorating hearts with eeeeeveryone.
I have no idea if anyone else would be interested or not, but I'm making a mod that makes the chickens candy colored. Also, I'm going to see if I can make a decent flower crown to replace one of the hats - probably one of the giant bows. (I love me some flower crowns.)
Oh ho, apparently Shane and Emily will be romance options eventually. I'm happy! I love both of them, especially Shane, because I relate too much to a depressed dude working a soul sucking retail job while trapped in a small town.
IT IS DONE. The fish have been wiped out, and the valley is saved from the slimy menace! Now I need to work on seducing the rest of the town while avoiding the wrath of Jock. Do you need to give out bouquets to get past 8 hearts for single members of the valley? I was wondering why I seemed to get stuck at 8 with Fabio.
Yes, you do. Occasionally you can get to 9 hearts with a single by being on the border between 7 and 8 and giving a birthday gift or something, but that's not intended behavior.
Damn. I've already had Jock get on my case about giving gifts to Harvey, and I haven't even given bouquets yet. Undertale was right!
I waited till I was married to start wooing everyone else and Maru has not said a word of complaint. Sometimes she drops a heart when someone else gets a gift, but cheesy cauli or a fresh strawberry from the greenhouse fixes that right up.
It seems that Alex only comments on it when he's visiting his grandparents or otherwise off the farm. The rest of the time he seems happy enough despite all my horribly blatant cheating, so who know. Does Maru visit her parents at all?
A cackling witch flew over my henhouse and left behind a strange black egg. I put it in the incubator. NOTHING ABOUT THIS CAN POSSIBLY GO WRONG
@TheSeer well Spoiler: kinda spoilery image re: black egg You will have to deal with having a chicken that judges the hell out of you every time you enter the coop...
That's all right, I'm judging the chickens right back. I don't need special colors to know they're evil little bastards.
That's the spirit! XD On that note, I'm tempted to mod the chickens so that they all give side-eye. Pastel chickens that are judging me.
ngl, i picked up a mod that removes friendship decay just because i can't reliably talk to everyone or give them gifts every week at this point.
Oooh, I want that one! "You have to talk to people and do nice things for them all the time or they stop liking you" is... not a fun game mechanic for me.

They are the first two I wanted to woo, as soon as I met them *U* Or like, at least give Shane a new, paid, job...
