Chicken Catcher
Craft a chicken catcher with an egg, a stick, and a feather. Use the catcher on a chicken to capture it and add it to your inventory.
Roost
When a chicken is in a roost, all the items they drop will stay in the roost. Up to 16 chickens can be held in a single roost.
Chicken Breeder
When there are 2 chickens in a breeder, they will close the privacy curtains and start to breed. The breeder can hold 64 seeds, and will use 2 seeds each time the chickens breed.
Roost Collector
The collector will pull all dropped item out of nearby Roosts. It will check a 9x9 area centered above the collector.
Mod Integrations
All the chickens from the Chickens and More Chickens mods are supported.
ContentTweaker Integration
After adding a chicken via ContentTweaker, supply two textures for the chicken's block and item models in the following locations:
resources/roost/textures/blocks/chicken/<chicken_name>.png resources/roost/textures/items/chicken/<chicken_name>.png
Modpack permissions
This mod is open source, and may be used in any modpacks.
Crafttweaker Documatation unclear
I don't know why, but the latest version (1.12.2 - 2.0.10) misses the creative tab icon (black-purple texture) + when one roost in on the top of another, the lightning becomes very odd
This mod (along with Chickens and More Chickens) is adorable! These chickens with Moo Fluids and Mystical Agriculture might make for a different, fun take on the game.
Maybe a new chick item could be produced when two chickens are put in a chicken breeder, it could place a baby chicken? It is a bit weird that a fully grown chicken is hatched from an egg… lol…
For those interested in Animania compatibility:
You can use Roost (I'm using v 1.3.0 for 1.12) with Animania (v1.6.2 for 1.12) to some degree. The chicken catcher works on Animania chickens, but turns them into vanilla chickens in the process. You can place the captured chickens into roosts and they will produce eggs/feathers as expected. You can remove them from roosts and return them to the world, but they will never regain the Animania model/textures.
And if you have vanilla chickens turned off in the configuration file, any chickens removed from roosts will disappear when you right-click to return them to the world.
So, think of it like a one-way ticket. Animania chickens can go into roosts, but roosted chickens cannot return to the look or behavior of Animania chickens.
I hope this helps. I, for one, am happy to include Roost in my modpack, and will simply be careful where I place roosts since relocation would mean sacrificing their occupants.

Thanks, but most people have Minecraft chickens disabled…

Please post problems in the github: https://github.com/timrwood/roost/issues
rather than here. It's also better to use gist.github.com or pastebin.com to share crash files, to avoid cluttering Comments with a 'wall of text'.
Cheers!
Great mod, love it, hopefully you can figure out a way to get more mod compatibility and keep up the amazing work.
We do appreciate the mods and all the work you put into them, even if we do sound bitchy at times :-).
Does this mod mean that if we supplied the textures, we could use the Animania chickens?
this mod is adorable, and well-executed; thanks!
This was a comment from my old account...
hey man, with all the comments drilling you with questions or negativity, i just wanted to add some positivity to your life. great mod, my man. super fun to mess around with, and a decent grind to reward ratio. 10/10. keep up the good work and don't mind negative people; us positive people are out there enjoying what you've made, we just usually don't have anything to complain about so we never comment. peace be with you brother.
Is this compatible with Animania chickens?
Would you please compatible with Animania?
how do i do pro mod Roost be compatible with Dragonic Evolution and some other mods?

Sim só precisa dos mods Chickens e More Chickens
If I catch a chicken with the chicken catcher, will it retain the stats obtained by the mechanic from Chickens mod?
Any chance of cockerels/roosters like in Hatchery? I do not want to use that mod, so is it a possible feature?
