incubated eating eggs day 5
Hold the cluck! /u/Choice-Stock-1770 just delivered a *seriously* egg-citing update! After snagging some mystery eggs from a flea market – against Dad’s better judgment, apparently – this chicken enthusiast threw them into a quail incubator, fully expecting… well, nothing. But Day 5 brought a cluck-tastic surprise: all but one egg revealed a thriving, moving embryo with visible veins! Seems Dad’s hour-long lecture about dashed hopes might need a rethink, especially since a $10 bet was involved. Talk about fowl play! This just goes to show, even mini-fridge-stored eggs can hold some incredible secrets. For more tales of unexpected poultry surprises, check out "The Problem Child" – you won’t want to miss it!
I'm really looking forward to someone asking me about the names of the chickens in my game!
Get ready for a cluck-tastic update! After incorporating over 3,000 chicken names – a truly egg-citing feat – into our game, "The MachinEGG," we realized a slight oversight: our roosters needed names too! A huge thank you to everyone who contributed previously; revisiting those suggestions is a fowl task indeed. So, if you’d like to see your rooster name immortalized in the game, drop it in the comments – we don’t need many! "The MachinEGG" is launching on Google Play in just a few days, pre-register now for an ad-free experience. A more complete version is planned for Steam down the line.
