Rest Nests: Avert your coop space crisis today!

A grid of six chickens, all asleep

Always running out of coop space? Good news: Rest Nests are here! Now, you can tuck your chickens into bed and make them not count towards your coop slots (they also don't lay currency eggs while there, among other status effects). You can buy an unlimited* number of Rest Nests, and also get one free per full month that you've been on the site. You can start sending chickens to bed either from your Coop status page or from their profiles.

This feature is hot off the press, so please send any bug reports about it as a ticket. Thank you!

* Slots start at 30 eggs, and each subsequent slot costs 30 eggs more than the last.

Rest Nest effects

When chickens are sent to a Rest Nest, they gain an Asleep status effect, which causes the following effects:

  • Their sprite will be shown in a nest with their eyes closed
  • They do not produce currency eggs at server rollover
  • They cannot be bred
  • Items cannot be used on them
  • They cannot be used in minigames like Eggspedition and Heists
  • They do not get hungry and are not fed by the "Feed all" button

After waking up, the chicken will return to their original roost in the original position. For a day after waking up, chickens will have a Waking Up status effect. Chickens that are Waking Up will not produce currency eggs at server rollover.

Oh this is wonderful! Thank you so much :-) I haven’t hit the chicken limit but it’s nice to know there are options now!
