If you're anything like me, you care an unreasonable amount about the intricacies of Skyrim's chicken population. Your immersion was absolutely destroyed by the lack of roosters. Luckily, MihailMods came to the rescue with Roosters- Mihail Monsters and Animals (SE-AE version) (''chicken'') . I added roosters to places that already had chickens. I tried my best to keep it to one rooster per population of chickens and I kept the color distribution of the roosters I added somewhat random. Please bother me if you have an issue with my patches not the original mod authors. These patches were made by me ChickenMike and not MihailMods. All plugins are .ESL flagged .ESPs so they won't take up a place in your load order.

This is normally the spot where I say these patches don't work on a game in progress. Yes not changing your load order mid save is best practice, however in this specific instance it is most likely fine. If you have an issue, start a new game and see if its still there before filing a bug report please.

These patches require BEES to function properly on older game versions.

FAQ

Q:Why did you call this page C.O.C.K.S.?

A:In Mihail's discord, their Rooster mod was referred to as project Cock for a long time and I wanted to pay homage to that because I'm a manchild who thought it was funny.

Q:Will these new roosters use the models added by mods like Mihail's Rooster Proportions?

A:Yes, any mods altering the original roosters should also affect the roosters added by this mod.

Q:Do these patches work with my game version?

A:They should, but best practice is to use BEES.

Q:Wow these patches sure look complicated to do how did you make them?

A:Truthfully it's not that complicated. It took me like an hour to learn the like an hour to learn the CK and to be honest you should already know how to use SSEedit. Janquel's guide is an invaluable resource and without it I wouldn't have known where to even start. If I can do it you can too!

Q:Why does this page have a FOMOD but others mod pages of yours don't?

A:I did one this time because it only took 20 minutes. Also this page will likely grow to a very big number of patches and it is best to get started early.

Q:Do you take patch requests?

A:For this page absolutely. Individual patches only take me a couple minutes so it isn't a big deal.

Q:You haven't had any recent activity on GGmods and I need to get a hold of you, how can I do that?

A:@ChickenMike in either Ryn, or Janquel's discords and I should see it. I'm also in a bunch of other discords, but I check those two the most regularly.

Q:Why are you missing so many screenshots?

A:I'm lazy and taking screenshots is super tedious and I hate it.

PERSONAL THANK YOUS (in no particular order)

MissileMann for helping me come up with the acronym for this page.

robertgk2017 for advice on how to actually upload a patch collection and general encouragement.
