like it, always wonder why no chicken since we playing a farm game. | Jul 21, 2010 11:57pm [quote] |

It seems very cheap. I think 2w 2s would be okay and very playable. | Jul 22, 2010 4:51pm [quote] |

I don't think it is too cheap. Think of the grain field you need to have and maintain. So it's 2w, 1 plow action, 1 take grain action and 1 sow action to play this card. So this card can come out in Round 3 for 13 Food. | Jul 23, 2010 12:43am [quote] (Edit: Jul 23, 2010 3:14am) |

i agree with tom2, that this is not too cheap. and remember, stone is very hard to get in 1 and 2 player games early on, and minors should fit those games too. | Jul 23, 2010 12:54am [quote] |

I take it you'd use food chits for the chickens. | Jul 24, 2010 7:32am [quote] |

Edited this card a bit to make it better playable. I hope it's not to good now without the wood cost (I felt the grain field is enough of a req=cost.) | Oct 8, 2010 2:25am [quote] |

I can't believe there's 16 yes votes at no cost in resources. Yes it is a great card, good idea and very thematic, but way too cheap, and I can't see it getting approved as is. House Goat is one of the best minors in the game. It gives 6 food max and 1 vp, it also has a drawback. This card gives more food and more points. Any combo card at all and it is even easier to play. Field minor, acerage, field watchman, magician, acrobat, corn sheaf, etc etc. | Oct 11, 2010 11:59pm [quote] |
