Animal husbandry: Difference between revisions

[[Wild_Pig|Pigs]] eat animal feed placed in a [[Planks|large trough]]. Troughs hold portions of dry grass (8) or grains (2) and pigs will generally eat anything. After eating a number of portions and reaching saturation, the females become pregnant and after several days, they will bear offspring. Sows bear litters of multiple piglets (4-8) at a time, so be sure the pen is large enough to accommodate for a "pigsplosion", which may occur when breeding multiple females simultaneously. Note that boars (and sometimes sows) will attack players when in close range but will become passive after 10 generations.

[[Bighorn_sheep|Sheep]] eat animal feed placed in a [[Planks|large trough]]. Troughs hold portions of dry grass (8) or grains (2) and sheep will consume either grass or grain. After eating a number of portions and reaching saturation, the females become pregnant and after several days, they will bear offspring. Ewes bear one lamb at a time. Note that male sheep (and sometimes the females) always attack players when in close range, but they will stop doing so after 10 generations of breeding.

[[Chicken|Chickens]] will only eat grain placed in [[Planks|small troughs]]. Baby chicks are *not* preceded by eggs - they appear like other baby animals. Hens will lay eggs on the ground every 8-15 in-game days, which can be used in cooked foods (and do not have any impact on breeding new chickens). Players should collect the eggs regularly, as they disappear within 2 days.
