So I got the neatest idea...
Added 2019-06-13 17:28:19 +0000 UTCHow about I make a 'Wild Chicken Shrub' that attracts wild chickens (animations from Island Living) that you can harvest eggs from? It would grow like a regular harvestable would and have a little nest where eggs will spawn. There will also be an added chicken animation that will happen periodically. Making a coop would be okay but I really think there's a good chance EA will tackle that in a future pack and I don't want there to be too much overlap.
Also, I need some egg recipes if that's the case because unlike all my other harvestables you won't be able to use them for anything. I'd like some ideas that center around campfire cooking or grill cooking because I'd like to offer this alongside of all the off-the-grid stuff I'm going to make next month.
Leave your thoughts/suggestions below!

Sounds Awesome, can't wait! Would you be able to make it GrayCurse compatible? http://modthesims.info/d/584503/graycurse-s-cooking-amp-ingredients-overhaul.html

2019-06-18 13:58:55 +0000 UTCLove this idea. Some nice recipes to add would be Eggs-in-a-hole, poached eggs, cloud eggs (a kind of poached egg with fluffiness around the edges), devilled eggs, egg drop soup, custards or puddings, creme brulee, souffle (I so wish there was a nice souffle in game), and chalah bread. Apparently, just so you know, there are wild chicken animations in Island Living, the animations for which maybe you could borrow. I think these are small island chickens, though, so you may not care to use those ones.

2019-06-14 17:13:03 +0000 UTCSounds brilliant, first question in on my mind when I saw the Chickens was - are we getting a coop? But the idea of free roaming chickens laying eggs is even cooler, free range eggs anyone?

2019-06-14 11:57:54 +0000 UTCWhat about a "breakfast burrito"? We make them when camping, eggs and tortillas and whatever else is handy on camp stove or grill.

2019-06-14 06:11:46 +0000 UTCI am pretty sure that the stove with the wood under it from base game got the off the grid functionality

2019-06-13 21:51:44 +0000 UTCWhat?! Wood burning stove?! Where?

2019-06-13 21:31:45 +0000 UTCGreat ideas! I'm going to use them both :)

2019-06-13 21:31:21 +0000 UTCOooh, I didn't think of egg salad - that's a good and easy one!
BrazenLotus
2019-06-13 21:29:56 +0000 UTCHey there! I understand that, but I don't like to restrict what I make based on the fact that someone made something similar, especially when I know I'm going to want to incorporate my mod in other ways in the game. :)

2019-06-13 21:29:22 +0000 UTCI love this idea!! It would be fantastic if the egg things worked on a grill or the fire pits!! I think there will be a wood burning stove that will be useable so that’s an option too!

2019-06-13 18:03:31 +0000 UTCWhat a great idea, egg recipes egg salad, hard boiled will last so that's good for off the grid

2019-06-13 17:39:59 +0000 UTCThat sounds amazing!!! My family makes scrambled eggs and pancakes on a cast iron skillet when we camp and we also sometimes hardboil eggs in a can when we camp
