Summary

Stardew Valleydeveloper Eric Barone (better known as Concerned Ape) has been tinkering with the game for so long that you’d assume that every single possible problem that could arise while playing had been snuffed out ages ago.He’s put his next game, Haunted Chocolatier, on pause so many timesthat I’ve lost count, and he’s even stated thathe could see himself working on the game forever.

However, even the most diligent of developers can let one or two bugs slip through the cracks, though Stardew Valley players will be hoping that a very rare onethat seemingly affects Void Eggswill go unnoticed for now.In a new post on the Stardew Valley subredditby user Nosleepanymoreuwu, they claim to have hatched two chickens from a singleVoid Egg.

Stardew Valley Glitch Gives Players Two Chickens From One Void Egg

In the post, the player explains that after they placed their Void Egg in an incubator and then came back when it was ready to hatch, everything happened as expected. The cutscene popped up that allowed them to name their chicken Crasher (fantastic name for a chicken by the way), and upon exiting the naming screen, they found that two little Crashers were running around their feet.

To see if this was a weird visual glitch, the player left their chicken coop and reentered, only to find two identical chickens named Crasher running around in different directions. After asking fellow Stardew Valley players if this was normal for Void Eggs, the rest of the community told them that it is not and is most likely a glitch, albeit a fairly profitable one.

In fact, this apparently isn’t the first time that this has happened. Another user called Lemothelemon explains that they thought it happened a while back, while another more enthusiastic user called Jumpyjumpjumpsters exclaimed that “DUDE THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME”.

Exactly what’s causing the glitch is unknown right now, though it’s not exactly like this is a massive game breaking bug that needs fixing immediately. You never know though, as Barone could include a little tweak in Patch 1.6 for console and mobile,the release date for which was finally confirmed by the creator last month.
