There was no presale or airdrop for $FEED. The token launched at the same time Roosting became available in December 2021. Players could farm $FEED by staking $EGG in Single-Sided Staking, or by swapping $EGG to feed at a fixed rate.

The total $FEED supply was calculated to meet the hypothetical goal of all 10,000 chikn reaching 45 KG, although this is not a fixed maximum weight for any chikn. As the game plays out, some chikn will exceed 45 KG while others won’t come close.

After launch, 800 million $FEED was allocated to the Chikn DAO and a small amount to exchanges for initial liquidity. The breakdown of all these allocations are as follows:

* **Reward Emissions:** 8 billion $FEED
* **Chikn DAO Treasury:** 800 million $FEED
* **Liquidity & Incentives:** 800 million $FEED
* **Team & Advisors:** 800 million $FEED
* **Ecosystem Development:** 800 million $FEED
* **Partnerships & External Farms:** 800 million $FEED

{% hint style="info" %}
Update: The Chikn team moved all $FEED allocations (with the exception of the DAO Treasury allocation which remains reserved) into circulation. A total of 11.2 billion $FEED were released primarily through staking rewards, with a relatively small amount left in liquidity. Your chikn are hungry—we want to make sure they get fed.

The total $FEED supply allocated to rewards ran out on December 09, 2022. There will be no additional $FEED minted.
