Collecting Milk

Milk comes in stages. A Half Filled Milk Bottle and a Half Filled Milk Bucket are partial containers, while a Milk Bottle is the full bottle form. Buckets also progress through One Sixth Filled Milk Bucket and One Third Filled Milk Bucket before reaching a full bucket. Keep the partial containers — they are steps in the same progression, not junk.

Eggs and Chicken Products

Egg Carton is a block for storing eggs. Cooked Chicken comes from cooking raw chicken, and the mod supports campfire_cooking, smelting, and smoking as cooking methods, so you can use whichever heat source you have on hand.

Breeding Loop

1. Feed your adult animals to trigger breeding.

2. Collect the produce: milk into bottles or buckets, eggs into an Egg Carton.

3. Cook meat with campfire_cooking, smelting, or smoking.

Cooked Rabbit and Weak Rabbit Stew are the rabbit-side products. Weak Rabbit Stew is a weaker stew form, so treat it as an early or partial result rather than a full meal.

Keep a Collar and a Cloth Bridle or Leather Bridle nearby for handling animals while you work. Breed in a fenced pen built from Posts so animals stay contained between feeding rounds.
