How to get Valheim chickens
To start raising chickens, you’ll need to buy eggs from Haldor, a trader in the Black Forest. An egg will cost you 1,500 coins, but you will need two chickens to start breeding, so it will cost you 3,000 coins. So if you have been accumulating mountains of gold since the beginning of the game then now you will have something to spend it on. However, if you don’t have enough funds you’ll have to search for chickens in the black forest for gold pearls and gems which you’ll exchange at Haldor’s for gold.
However, Haldor will only sell chicken eggs after you defeat Yagluth. So you need to get to that point before you approach him, otherwise the eggs will not be in his inventory.
How to hatch eggs in Valheim
Now that you have the eggs, it’s time to hatch them. However, placing the eggs on the ground will be too cold for anything to hatch. To change that, you need a nearby fire and a roof. You can build something as complicated as you want, but really all you need is a basic fire under one piece of roof.
To check if an egg is ready to hatch, hover your cursor over it and the text should tell you that it is “warm.” It takes about one day in the game for a chicken to hatch. A very important detail: eggs cannot be hatched in a pile. Newborn chickens also run wild, so build a fence around the egg before it hatches and runs away. Unlike real eggs, fortunately for us, Valheim eggs are indestructible, so you can safely pick them up and throw them back on the ground if necessary.

Then wait until the chickens are fully grown. After about two or three days in the game, they will automatically turn into adult chickens. To raise chickens, you only need two adult chickens and plenty of food. The new chickens will reproduce again as eggs, without a campfire or a roof – so if you just want to raise eggs, just take away the campfire.
