Could there be a way that chickens (that don't come from spawners A.K.A regular chickens) could stay unstacked? I remember on my old island I had 50+ chickens unstacked. When I restarted my is I tried to coop them up like I had before but they keep stacking. I saw that a 46x chicken only layed one egg. For people like myself who sell eggs it's a burden and also a bit annoying trying to collect chickens and have them lay only one egg.

So could there be a way for either the stacked chickens to lay the number of eggs they are stacked as (so like a 10x chicken would lay 10 eggs), or for chickens to become unstacked? It would be a lot more efficient.

I think u need to name them with a name tag and give them all other names.
But I'm not totally sure.

Yeah that's one way, but there should be a way to do it without having to buy 50+ name tags.
[DOUBLEPOST=1490547125][/DOUBLEPOST]I know that when you reach a certain limit like passing 100x that they start laying more eggs but that should work for when you just have a 10x chicken too.

I've increased the egg drop rate for merged chickens

Before:
num_of_egg = merged_count * 0.5 * random (0.0 - 1.0);

Now:
num_of_egg = merged_count * 0.8 * random (0.0 - 1.0);

(You should expect around a 50-60% increase in eggs)
Thanks!!! This will help out a lot. :D
