FAQ
**THERE IS NO TIMER ON THE BARNYARD BIRD NEST THEY DO NOT EXPIRE**
Q: What happens to the Barnyard Birds after 4 days of no food do they die or go into a coma state?
A: After 96 hours without food your Barnyard Bird will become sick and need to be healed with a Flu Shot or you can place food by a sick Barnyard Bird and it will eat until it is no longer starved, takes approximately 96 hours for the hardiness to get back to 100 and text reading "sick" will then disappear. You will be able to tell your Barnyard Bird is sick because it will show in the hover text and the hover text will turn red. It will go back to its normal appearance once it is healed.
Q: How many prims are the Barnyard Birds?
A: Each Barnyard Bird is 11 prims the food is 2 prims, so for 1 clutch pack (6 Barnyard Birds come in a clutch pack) you will need 68 prims total on your land.
Q: What age is considered full grown, where the Barnyard Bird won’t grow any larger?
A: age 7
Q: What is the difference between the Physical, Phantom, and Off movement settings?
A: The Physical Movement Setting (which is supposed to be listed as Normal) uses a semi physical movement that the physics is only on when the Barnyard Bird moves and off when standing still this is to reduce collisions and lag. The Phantom Movement Setting allows the Barnyard Bird to move in a phantom state completely eliminating collisions all together.
WARNING THE BARNYARD BIRD WILL BE ABLE TO GO THROUGH WALLS, AND FENCES. PLEASE SET THE RANGE APPROPRIATELY
The Off Movement Setting turns off the movement completely but still allows the animations and sounds to function.
Q: How do the range settings work?
A: The Range is set in Meters and is the radius of a circle with the home point as the center. (The Radius of a circle is measured from the center to its edge)
Q: How will we know the Barnyard Birds are ill? When should we use the Flu Shots?
A: A Barnyard Bird will become sick if it is hardiness reaches 0%. The Barnyard Bird will say it is sick in the hover text. The Flu Shot should only be used when the Barnyard Bird is sick.
Q: Is it normal for the movement to stop after the Barnyard Bird has become ill?
A: Yes

A: Yes the Barnyard Bird Nest will have hover text that will show the stats of the bird, except for gender.
Q: After “retirement” is there any point in the Barnyard Birds life that they “die” and become totally non-functional?
A: They breed until they use all 12 of their cycles then they can no longer breed and become Seniors.
Q: Will we get Elders (after the Barnyard Birds use all the cycles in their breeding period)
A: No they will just become Seniors
Q: What does “Send API” mean?
A: We established this button for 3rd party products. It sends the API to their 3rd party products over a certain channel.
Q: Some Barnyard Birds are dropping badly in vivacity and some are down to less than 10%. Is that normal and will they recover?
A: When the Barnyard Birds are under age 7 there vivacity does not affect anything, they will still eat and do everything else Barnyard Birds should do. When they reach age 7 which is breedable age then happiness will play a factor in breeding. In order to get happiness up you will have to hold them, give them Poultry Glow or put Orange Rinds out for them.

A: The Barnyard Birds have one hidden trait and one shown trait.
