Personally, I love my colossal, and my chunkies as well, as I never really flipped chickens much, so 2.33H long production times are great I think
I doubt very much if this is worth it
level 9 chucky chicken no books produces 378 eggs, with level 6 book 432 on normal feed for 2hr 20 mins
it takes 64 squares or 1 slot in chicken chalet. I will compare to normal chicken but candy chickens are the best chicken available (all mine are candy)
in 2hr 20 normal chicken can be harvested 10.7 time, but lets say 10 give some time to replant.
level 9normal chicken no book produces 61 eggs/13mins, level 6 book, 115. so in just 7 harvest with no books you have produced more than 1 chunky chicken IF it is in you chalet. If on Main farm it takes the space of 2.5 normal chickens so then you only have to harvest normal chicken 3 times in 2hr 20mins to get more eggs.
If you have level 6 books this becomes far worse. as it only take 4 harvest of 1 normal chicken to produce more eggs but again if on the Main farm not in chalet you only got to harvest your 2.5 chickens twice in 2hrs 20 mins
so for both 2hr 20 min this is what you get (remember this is only normal chicken not candy, if you compare to candy then these number get way worse)
level 9 chunky chicken 378 or 432 with book
in chalet normal 610 or 1150 with book
on Main farm 1575 or 2875
That is a massive reduction in egg out put per 2hr 20 for a prize you have to work for, only good for bin
the other 2 large chickens are not much better
And before someone says it, you get more with seaweed feed. If I was going to get eggs using seaweed I would use on my duck FAR more eggs per feed
Dazzling duck coop (level 8): 1874 eggs/25 seaweed feed
Collosal chicken (level 8): 674 eggs/5 seaweed feed
5 x 674 = 3370 - 1874 = 1496 / 1874 = 79.82% more eggs for the same amounts of seaweed feed
Plus, you can also use the powerhouse for +50% from stables, which will only affect the the big chickens
Missions are total thing of the past, players just buy tonnes of WoF tokens and do very few mission. What is the point of even doing a mission, when you know that payers just going to spin the wheel 4K times and get more RP the you can by doing missions all day
Also 5 seaweed feed on chunky chickens gives 482 eggs x 5 = 2420 eggs
and 25 seaweed feed on a dazzling duck coop gives 1874 eggs, which means that the chunky chickens still gives 29.14% more
In my opinion, we have to compare this to candy chicken coops as players can now collect a reasonable number of these every time the candy farm comes around. In fact, if your cooperative often ranks well in the village fair, you will get a lot of these candy chicken coops. I already have around 30 of them in my storage from that event alone.
But with what Dark Underworld is saying above, this is already unnecessary. Removing handbooks from the picture results in 59 eggs (not 61) for a regular chicken coop and 378 eggs for a chunky chicken coop. So 7 harvests from a regular chicken coop already gives more eggs, but this can be done in under two hours so the chunky chicken coop.
A colossal chicken coop at level 9 can give 510 eggs. I can't remember how many a level 9 candy chicken coop gives, but if you are going to have a whole bunch of chicken coops then it is reasonable to throw in a handbook and even a level 5 handbook combined with level 1 candy chicken coops is going to out-perform the colossal chicken coop (84 vs 546 eggs per harvest, 7 harvests of these chicken coops still out-perform one harvest from the colossal chicken coop.)
Now it is clear that any type of the larger chicken coops are not suitable for regular harvesting. The only other option is for seaweed use like The Best King said. But a downside of managing it like this is that you cannot harvest them as fast as just using seaweed on larger duck coops. So it's not practical if you are trying to push at the end of some mission. Maybe it is practical if you need to hit some set amount, but I don't know how often you have to do that and often this kind of thing can be avoided by managing duck coop harvests. It is still a possible benefit though.
But it is extremely hard to collect the capacious or colossal chicken coops. Chunky chicken coops are relatively accessible, but their harvest amounts are not that great to suggest building them.
I've got 3 Chunky in my Chicken Chalet with 2 Irish & 5 Tropical in the other Chalet, Chunky Chickens are to big to have out of the chalets & upgrade price's & long construction times put them in it's not worth the effort class, with eggs I prefer duck eggs, much better return.
I've got 9 Chunky & 32 Irish, Tropical & Candy sitting in storage that will never be used
