🐔 nb_chickens — Chicken Coop System for RedM (VORP)

Give your players a complete frontier farming experience. Buy birds from a local farmer NPC, place coops in the world, raise your flock, collect eggs, butcher for meat and feathers, or sell live chicks to other players to raise on their own.

---

🏚️ Coop Placement & Management

• Buy and place chicken coops anywhere in the world
• Fully persistent — coops and flock data survive server restarts
• Rename your coop and individual birds
• Pick the coop back up and get your birds and eggs returned
• Configurable max coops per player

🐣 Raising & Breeding

• Add hens and roosters to your coop
• Hens and roosters breed automatically when fed — chicks hatch and grow over time
• Chicks visually scale up as they mature using the real RDR2 growth system
• Cosmetic bird peds wander around the coop and look alive
• Full flock simulation runs server-side across restarts

🥚 Egg Collection

• Fed, healthy hens lay eggs on a configurable interval
• Configurable max egg storage per coop
• Hold-prompt egg collection with animation

🌾 Feeding System

• Buy feed bags from the farmer NPC
• Configurable feed units per bag and per-bag price
• Feeding animation plays before the trough is topped up
• Feed consumption, health regen/decay, and starvation (optional) all configurable

🪓 Butchering

• Butcher adult birds for meat and feathers
• Confirmation dialog before butchering — no accidental kills
• Full butchering animation plays in the world
• Chicks are protected — cannot be butchered until fully grown

🐣 Chick Trading Economy

• Package live chicks from your coop as a tradeable inventory item
• Sell chicks to the farmer NPC or trade directly with other players
• Buyers can raise them privately or build their own poultry business

🛒 Farmer NPC Shop

• Ambient farmer NPC with blip — fully configurable model, location, and heading
• Buy coops, hens, roosters, and feed
• Sell eggs, feathers, meat, and live chicks
• Live on-hand item counts shown in the shop panel
• Sell All button — offload everything in one click

🃏 Trading Card UI

• Birds display as individual trading cards with portrait, name, age, health bar, and growth progress
• Hen, rooster, and chick cards are visually distinct with colour-coded type badges
• Rename any bird, package chicks, or butcher — all from the card
• Western frontier aesthetic — parchment panels, oxblood accents, Playfair Display typography

⚙️ Fully Configurable

• All prices, timings, limits, and item names in a single open config.lua
• config.lua is escrow-ignored — always editable
• Sim tick rate, egg interval, breed timer, grow time, health values, starvation, max flock, max eggs, max feed — all exposed
