Automatic Lox Farm 🐻 | Valheim 2024

This is my Automatic Lox Farm which not only breeds but also kills the Lox once they turn into adults leaving the drops to accumulate.

I just discovered your channel, you have some great content here thank you!

[@Zerger]

Thank you 😁

[@HGMBALDER]

while this is an excellent farm, there are a few things I would like to point out. 1. The calf can spawn in the main room, so check from time to time. 2. if you want the meat and not the pelts, it is a more viable option to move the puffers down to the back wall (opposit the iron gates), to kill them, as they give 1 meat, while mature lox gives 4-5 meat, 2 pelts and maybe a trophy and takes quite some time to mature and an absurd amount of time to kill them with puffers. which also requires an active area. The math says it is better to just kill them off as calfs, if you don't need the pelt. But awesome farm..

[@MusicAdvocat3]

brilliant point sir! making that change now! the math supports it hands down, can potentially get better than 1/1 ratio cloudberry/lox!. Thanks!

[@labsssdienss5288]

Glad it was recommended

[@Nate-po2rf]

I only have the walls around the lox and the 1 core wood pole that locks them in place, and they still spin to the side. I dont have anything built within 20 meters of the lox except for the basic pins (the 5mx4mx4m pin for each lox). Did something change with Ashlands or am i missing something else?

[@HOFFSWAGGER]

Another one, hell yeah!

[@lanparty6370]

The second I saw 2:15 was like a Mind Blown moment for me. You should experiment with putting that view in the thumbnail lol

[@bladimirarroyo8513]

How eficcient is this farm? Since im going to replace the lox meat pie for a ashlands healt food i dont think i would need a lot of lox meat from now on, right? Pd: with the joke i made 3 of your farms lol, this would be the forth. Amazing videos i love the askvin farm.

[@omarbl1229]

Any chance you can share your planbuild blueprint

[@muhammadsaad5660]

First of all, a really great idea, but I had a questions. What about if we want more frequent lox spawns? Would simply increasing the height of the farm work or are there more complications with that? I would also have same question for the chicken farm

[@Zerger]

Thanks 🙂 And yes, if you increased the height of the lox farm so there aren't more than 4 in a 20 metre radius it would work. And no more than 14 within 12 meters for chickens. But those types of farms already exist, they're called tower farms. Personally they just aren't my style

[@kalewhetstone]

My lox turn around in their pens and won’t eat, did I miss something?

[@VertPlaysGames]

So, this definitely works, but it's quite slow. Any tips to make it faster? I'm thinking I might have to convert it into a sort of tower farm or something in order for the Lox to breed more frequently.

[@notednuance]

A tower will work but it has to be very tall for the parents mob count check to not see the babies. You can find some builds on here that call out the distance specifically but it's notably more than you need for wolves/boar.

[@VertPlaysGames]

@@notednuance The distance is 20m. I built a breeder structure that drops the newborns about 30m into a large pit. There's room for them to roam around but I also use the pufferfish around the drop zone so if it starts to get clogged up it kills them. So far it's working well enough! Thanks for the guide!

[@VertPlaysGames]

Do the breeders *have* to have a ceiling above them, or can we just leave it open?

[@Zerger]

Yeah open is fine too, I was just concerned about raids is why I put it up there

[@VertPlaysGames]

@@Zerger makes sense. thanks!

Ceiling too low. He talks about this issue at 16:18.

[@danktoastiekins9341]

Try having empty space around all sides of the lox except where the food is. Works for boars so maybe it would work for lox.

[@Zerger]

Something is obscuring the floor area they need either a roof above or something in the area. Or something similar to that. It could even be something like an open door over one of the tiles

[@kalewhetstone]

[@notednuance]

Yeah you've built something that breaks their pathing like he mentions in the video. Lox basically count as having the height of a troll so the roof has to be very high. Start removing build pieces above and around your Lox til they turn back toward the food.
