In the game’s additional content, or DLC, you can buy Roosters, Hens, and Chicks as animals within the Build/Buy mode of The Sims 4. If you’d rather save money, you can raise your own by incubating chicken eggs instead of continuously purchasing more. However, keep in mind that these eggs won’t hatch on their own, so waiting too long might cause you to miss the opportunity. Here’s how to hatch chicken eggs in The Sims 4:
1. First, purchase a Chicken Coop from the Buy Mode catalog and place it in your Sim’s lot.
2. Next, buy some unhatched Chicken Eggs also from Buy Mode and place them inside the Chicken Coop.
3. A Sim needs to interact with the eggs daily by using the ‘Incubate Egg’ interaction. This should be done every day until a newborn chicken hatches from the egg.
4. After hatching, the Sim can care for and raise the chick as desired!
