Raise a little chick in the moments you spend away from your screen. Choose an egg, lock your screen, and return to see how your companion has grown. Your chick grows through six stages, from egg to chicken. When your chicken lays an egg, a new generation begins. Collect companions at your own pace and see who you meet next. • The base game is free and includes 24 standard breeds. • The collection expansion adds 35 breeds, for 59 in total. It is a separate one-time purchase. • Premium is an auto-renewing subscription, separate from the expansion. While subscribed, it includes 1.5× growth, better rare-breed chances, appearance and background customization, and seasonal breeds currently available. • Premium does not include ownership of the expansion; members can purchase it separately at member pricing. Screen-locked time contributes to growth. During Chick Time, growth counts whether the app is open or closed. Growth speed can vary with raising mode, settings, and device state. Individual eggs are separate purchases. Check the in-app shop and your store's purchase confirmation for current prices, plans, and purchase conditions.
