📋 About This Mod
This mod was not made by me, it is a port of Ceruulean's mod "Daily Eggs --- Busy Bees" which can be found at https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/64044 .
Ceruulean wrote about the permissions to port this mod in the sticky post at https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/64044?tab=posts .
Daily Eggs
Chicken (only chicken) nests respawn daily (every 24 hours). Good for Hearthfire and "realistic needs" mods.
Now you won't feel as bad when you take other people's eggs.
If installed on existing savegames, an already empty nest will not respawn. You must activate it to trigger the respawn cycle (activating means taking the egg).
Busy Bees
The apiary at Lakeview Manor respawns daily. Works on existing savegames.
The original mod contains also the separate file for Daily Eggs and the separate file for Busy Bees. I have ported only the main, all-in-one version.
Hearthfire required !
UPDATE from 31 January 2020: Added the version with ESL flag.
