Livestock Management
Raising animals allows you to produce high-value protein and dairy products.
1. Housing & Acquisition
Livestock Housing: You must first craft or purchase animal housing. Each housing unit holds one animal.
Acquisition: Purchase animals (Cows or Chickens) using Xirium to begin production.
2. Feeding & Care
Feeding Cycles: Animals require regular feeding with Corn to produce goods.
Durability: Housing loses durability each time you feed your animals. If it hits 0%, you cannot feed or gather until it is repaired with Adventure Mode materials.
3. Livestock Neglect
Unlike crops, animals are hardier but still require management:
Production Halt: Animals will not die of starvation in the current system, but their production will stop if they are not fed.
Housing Collapse: If the Livestock Housing durability hits 0%, you will be unable to interact with the animals at all until the facility is repaired.
4. Gathering vs. Slaughtering
Once an animal's feeding cycles are complete, you have two choices:
Gather Products: Collect resources like Milk or Eggs. The animal remains in its housing, ready for a new feeding cycle.
Slaughter: Harvest the animal for Meat (Beef or Chicken Meat) and its secondary product. This removes the animal from its housing, requiring you to purchase a new one to continue.
