# Clean The Coop

## What Happens After the Animals Eat?

Just like in real life, after your Animal eats, it might need to take a dump. But here’s the catch: it doesn’t always happen right away.

Each day, the system runs **3 random events** at completely unpredictable times.\
During every event, **each Animal has a 50% chance** of producing poop.

What this means:

* With good luck, one Animal can drop up to **3 poops in a single day** (hitting all three 50/50 chances).
* With bad luck, your Animal might not produce any at all.

And don’t forget: these events are totally random. Just because something happened at a certain time today doesn’t mean it’ll ever happen at the same time tomorrow.

## Clean That Shit Up! 

As a responsible owner, you’ll want to keep your coop clean. 

When you visit your coop and find that your Animal has left some poop behind, just select the **“Clean Shit”** option to clear it out.

### **Cleaning Rules**

#### **How It Works**

* Each pile of Animal **waste** you clean earns you **1 ENG**.
* **Gas fees** apply to every cleaning action, but if you clear multiple piles in one go, you’ll only pay once.
* Only the **owner of the Animal** can clean its coop.

#### **Shit Accumulation & Strategy**

* Poop can pile up over several days. For example:
  * Day 1: 3 shits
  * Day 2: 2 piles of waste
  * Day 3: 1 poop\
    → Total: 6 piles (can all be cleaned at once).
* There’s **no limit** on how long shit can accumulate.
* Stacking it up saves gas fees — but hey, do you really want your coop turning into a steaming dump of neglect? Sometimes, cleaning is worth more than just the tokens.

#### **Not Your Coop, Not Your Scoop**

* Everyone can see the **poop** inside any Animal’s coop, but only the **owner** can clean it and claim the ENG rewards.
* When you visit someone else’s coop:
  * You’ll see their waste, but the **“Clean Shit”** button won’t appear.

* If poop exists → button is active for the owner

* If no shit → button is visible but disabled.

### **When You Can’t Clean Shit**

* Only **living Animals** produce poop.
* If an Animal dies or becomes Roast, it no longer drops waste.
* Any uncleaned shit disappears when the Animal dies/roasts, along with the ENG you could’ve claimed.
* And of course: if it’s not your coop, it’s not your scoop.

## **Summary**

* Cleaning **1 pile of poop = 1 ENG**.
* Cleaning more at once can save gas fees.
* Only the owner can clean their Animal’s coop.
* Dead or Roast Animals don’t produce shit, and any waste left behind is gone forever.
