Set up the farm. Place the Cloth Board within reach of everyone.

Choose your Player Tokens. Each player chooses a token and places it on the starting space. Return any unused tokens to the box.

Fill the Coop. Place all 4 Yellow Dice and all 4 Orange Dice in the Coop.

Choose the starting player. The player who most recently held a chicken goes first. If no one has, choose randomly.

Grab the starting dice. Give all 4 White Dice to the starting player.

Choose whether to Go For It or Chicken Out. At the start of your turn, either roll all the dice passed to you or Chicken Out. If you Chicken Out, return all Yellow and Orange Dice to the Coop, lose 1 point, and roll only the 4 White Dice. If you're still on the starting space, you don't lose a point.

Roll your dice. Roll your entire dice pool. Set Chickens to the right, Foxes to the left, and leave Eggs and blanks in the middle.

Check for a bust. If you ever have 3 or more Foxes showing across your dice, you bust and score no points for the turn.

Hatch new dice. For each Egg you roll, add one die from the Coop to the middle. Add Yellow Dice first; once they're gone, begin adding Orange Dice.

Choose whether to stop or reroll. You may Count Your Chickens and end your turn, or push your luck by rerolling all the dice remaining in the middle, including Eggs, blanks, and newly hatched dice.

Take your one reroll. You may reroll only once per turn. After the reroll, check for a bust again and hatch any new Eggs, but don't roll those newly hatched dice.

Count your Chickens. If you didn't bust, score 1 point for each Chicken showing. A Double Chicken on an Orange Die scores 2 points.

Pass the dice. Move your Player Token along the scoring track, then pass all your dice to the next player. They must decide whether to roll the growing dice pool or Chicken Out.
