  • Added a bump button to forum threads, threads can be bumped every half an hour.
  • Message replies now autofill with "Re:" + the previous subject
  • Cheek colour calculation has been adjusted a little to make them look a bit better when dark on dark, I will continue fine tuning this till it's to my liking
  • Eggs, seed and chickets info page has been updated with the most recent info about how to get them

To allow for finer customisation of the cheek appearance, I've added a Blush accessory! This is a 50% opacity overlay that renders on top of the cheek trait and under eyespots (it is also affected by Photofilm unlike any other accessory).

  • You can now select background colours for tierless flair - i.e. Elder, Bias and Supporter
  • Tiered flair badges now have dark and light versions of the colours that follow the chicken's dark/light background setting
  • Revamped mobile chicken select menus so that they scale smartly to the container/screen they're in
  • Debugged invite bidding and issued a round for the one that was missed
  • Nav buttons have been added to the bottom of the Farmhouse
  • Messages now have timestamps
  • FINALLY every place that has a drag handle actually uses it. That's the little griddy looking icon that you see in some places. hopefully this makes dragging things easier on mobile.
  • Renamed username flair to badges to avoid the conflict with the flair gene!
  • Re-published the site's design ethos - check this if you want to know how I assess how much site suggestions "line up with my vision for the site."
  • After posting a forum reply, you are now automatically jumped to the correct page.
  • Fixed the bug that was making the coin emoji always show up in the Supporter flair input regardless of what emoji you set.
  • you can now set colours on all badge types, not just the tierless ones!
  • you can now only set one Bias chicken (as I'd like to incentivise people to use the "special" types) - I did not remove the extra bias chickens from people's profiles since I don't want to disrupt any of the colours you may have going on, but subsequent changes to your flair will remove those extra bias badges
  • Added a menu to change the chicken's roost from their profile. As part of this, chicken profiles have been reorganised so that the action menu is popped out above the status/accessory/filter columns to make room for more links.
  • Fixed the bug that was making chicks with the blush accessory run into a bug when rendering
  • "Badge" name should be consistent across the site now
  • Roost editing is much more convenient now with edit buttons on the individual roost pages! I have done my best to test these thoroughly but there's a chance that I have missed some sequence of actions that may produce a bug.
  • Edit Roosts page has better styling on the roost cards.
  • When running into an error while editing a roost name/description, tooltips now pop up explaining what went wrong.
  • Fixed a bug that was making modulator previews not change the comb colour properly
  • Seepier filter has been updated to be slightly desaturated, so it is truer to the feel of sepia
  • Navigation bar should now render on top of all other page elements
  • Fixed the name displayed in the "has not added anything" message in the trade view
  • Added "Refund request" type to support ticket menu
  • Updated the ToS to explain under what scenarios you can request a refund:

If you purchase the wrong item or use a single-use item incorrectly by accident, and the total egg value of expended items/eggs exceeds 1500 eggs, you may request a refund and/or for the effects to be reverted (e.g. using several modulators in the wrong direction, or buying several of the wrong type of splicer). File a "Refund request" ticket. This covers only accidents and mistakes, and does not include change-of-mind requests.

  • Debugged roost edit features.

  • You can now pet chickens by pressing the p key. (Note that holding down the key will not cause it to pet repeatedly, it's once per tap)
  • There is now a 1/100 chance of a backflip each time you pet a chicken
  • Clucky Clicker now has explanatory text about keyboard controls
  • You can now no longer roll the "all your chickens are fed" daily reward if...all your chickens are fed
  • Reorganised status icons on the chicken profile and added transed status
  • Psst, the beta dressing room overhaul is available for testing! Adds a wardrobe with a price calculator, a button to buy the chicken's outfit, and the ability to add more than one of each type of filter and accessory. This is a complex change, so I want to make 100% sure it's working before replacing the old one. Let me know if a bug results in you buying the wrong number/types of items, I will refund you.
  • All egg and fed timers now show days + hours or hours + minutes (e.g. 1 day 10 hours).
  • Trades can now be accessed from the top link bar on your notifications page. It will have a badge showing your number of incomplete trades.
  • Parents' siblings are now called piblings in the family tree page
  • ToS updated to reflect the new hosting plan
  • The perma-release and pool release rewards have been raised to 45 - 60 eggs and 50 eggs respectively.
