Livestock

How it works

1. Learn the Animal Husbandry node to unlock the crates, or buy crates with Dukes.
2. Place a crate inside a pen to release the animal.
3. Look at an animal: its card shows sex (blue male, rose female), hunger, produce and mood.
4. Hold its feed and press the use key. Fed animals produce twice as fast and adults get in the mood.
5. A male and a female of the same kind, both in the mood and close, have a baby (once a day).
6. Babies grow into an adult of random sex after 2 days.
7. Milk cows and goats into an empty jar once a day; hens lay eggs on the ground; shear sheep for wool.
8. Build a Chicken Coop (Livestock tab, same node): up to six chickens let out within 10 meters move in and stay close to it.
9. Coop birds roost inside at night and come out at sunrise. Their eggs and the odd feather land in the coop: open it to collect.
10. Leave corn, wheat or sunflowers in the coop: each hungry bird eats one a day, and with a rooster it hatches chicks until full.

Tips

• Roosters crow at sunrise when you are near.
• Turn milk into cheese at a campfire with a cooking pot.
• There are no horses in The Hollow.
