I don't think it matters how old that male bird is, it will never lay eggs.

[@Мопс_001]

As I remember, dwarves can milk PIGS. They have amazing methodics of animal handling so I think that male bird will surely lay some eggs

I settled in untamed wilds. There was a goat who terrorized my dwarfs for a whole year. Ramming people and kicking thenm, no one could kill him. The dwarves gave him a name and everything. Everyone is mad with broken toes and crushed feet. The final reckoning comes and we end up killing the bastard goat. My craftdwarf got rammed in the head and fell unconscious, no one would play doctor and she stayed in the hospital for 2 months before i noticed she had given birth. The baby sat on its unconscious mothers body thinking about how seeing the goats mangle corpse didnt cause it to feel anything and about how seeing his mother unconscious body didnt cause him to feel anything. From there the fort fell into a downward spiral of depression and goat attacks, apparently the goat had friends.

[@Grandmaster-Kush]

An undead goat called a "bone goat" and an undead swordfighter attacked my fortress, they refused to die and killed all of us :(

[@Macknull]

How did an unborn baby witness a goats corpse

[@ShaneTheKing]

I gave up my last untamed wilds fort when I couldn't get yaks to stop attacking. I'd kill them off, they'd come back and it would never ever end. I abandoned the fort after I built a pit to drown it in (it was in an aquifer, so I had the water to spare) and I forgot to make the hatch on the stairwell I made for the miner to get out impassable, so the yak just ended up coming up and killing a bunch of people before it could be put down. I decided to go easy mode for my next fort, non-wilds, non-aquifer lands. Much nicer.

Butcher shop goes into more than that. 1) Tanner into a) leatherworks 2) Craftsdwarves workshop (for teeth, horns, and bones) 3) Kitchen into a) soap maker 4) Farmer's workshop into a) loom into ai) clothier The butcher's shop is the source of an entire industrial chain producing clothing, goods, food, and medical supplies. You can dedicate a building or floor entirely to it.

These quick tutorials on specific topics are super useful. Thanks for taking the time to record/edit/post all these videos, it is appreciated.

[@encnWorkshop]

Hello! Much appreciate the short tutorials - BUT! On my phone I can't tell what they are actually about before clicking, since title cuts off at "Dwarf Fortress - Quick Tutotial...". "Dwarf Fortress - [Subject] Quick Tutorial" would probably be a better formatting for a fair number of viewers, or putting it in the screenshot.

[@tommyjarvis2850]

Oh my god I’m having the same issue!

[@KohtaHirano]

My embark is near mountains, but despite that a group of capybaras would wander in every once in a while So I setup cage traps randomly around the map until I got a few and trained them, and have now been breeding and training them for so long that I've fully domesticated the most recent batch of kids! I treat them like kings tho, with their own safe enclosure and constant feeding, just a shame the wild ones are aggressive still

[@Foxion7]

I would also appreciate a video about Inventory management in general, or for your food supplies. Its always a mess and the new menu's are kind of confusing. I have way too much food, but still too little in important places. What are some good filter settings and how to I ensure I only get willow doors and that sort of stuff. Would be amazing to have, but thanks for your great stuff so far!

[@thorikrs5048]

You need a manager, all this options you can add in his menu, for doors: select wood door and click on the magnifier, select the material of the door.

[@Grandmaster-Kush]

Very nice tutorial! I'm also curious about getting started beekeeping for mead and with using the vermin catcher/cages to tame exotic mounts. Loving dwarf fortress for how deep some of these systems can be and how many options the game gives you to accomplish your goals/survive. You and the rest of the dwarf fortress community have been very welcoming for all of us new players with these tutorials.

[@BrutusAlbion]

Why do sometimes my animals decide to go and loiter around my meeting area? I have a perfectly fine pen available (and assigned) to them. It makes no sense. My donkey died from starvation because the chump didn't want to go to his assigned pen.

[@andrewd7112]

From what I've seen, dwarves need to go to the animal and move it to the pasture. Don't know if that's a Haul job or animal tending or something else.

[@Youtube_Cribbit]

I just caught a 9 headed 324 year old hydra, and I want to train it. Any way to go about this? I can assign a trainer to the creature, but they dont ever do anything with it

[@climhazzard115]

Finally figured out why all my turkey's died. I don't suppose you could just forbid one of the nest boxes? Another thing I learned in my current fortress, is that Dwarves love to name their pets, which, when your fortress is a deathtrap for cats for some reason... makes it hard to determine who needs memorial stones. So I have a lot of memorialized cats in my fortress, lol.

[@yourikhan4425]

I think I understand how the food supply on my fortress jumped so fast. There used to be many animals around.

[@AndrewFullerton]

I... Maybe have gotten gelding and shearing mixed up. Those poor llamas

[@AlexandarValerian]

I love the idea of gelding a large animal like an elephant. You see a dwarf running with a knife towards the elephant and the elephant is like; "What are you doing with my balls!?", "I have orders!" - says the dwarf. "Fak you and your orders!" - says the elephant and chucks the dwarf screaming into a river where he drowns...

[@paranoid9678]

sir you are my god thnks to you help i dwarfs suvived now for 5 years and this will help the for more years no not the nuts !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@glennleroy2040]

Do you have to cook the meat or prepare it anyway for dwarves to eat it? Also will dwarves automatically eat the meat when available? Sorry I'm completely new to the game, I appreciate the tutorials as well!

[@DakkaBert]

Once you assign a manager and give them an office, you can queue a work order to prepare meals that repeats on certain conditions, such as more than 10 unrotten ingredients available. Usually lavish quality is best unless you are actually running out of food. Also make sure you make barrel to store the food in! Prepared meals in barrels will not spoil, and making plenty of lavish prepared meals trade for quite a lot so dont worry about making too many. Also, highly recommend forbidding plump helmets for cooking as it destroys the seeds, use them for drinks instead. and forbid the seeds to be eaten.

[@jimstanley_49]

The butchered ingredients will also spoil unless they are stored in barrels until the kitchen gets around to cooking them. I believe they spoil quickly if left in the open (like the floor of the butcher shop), slowly is placed in a stock pile, and never when stored in a barrel. If you see entrails in your food stores, it's time to make more barrels or pots.

[@MrNoobed]

I was surprised i bought a rabbit from the elves and make it available as a pet. Almost immediately somedwarf ran up to the surface and took it out of the cage and adopted it.

[@LockeRobsta]

I'm having trouble with a breeding pair of grizzlies. One's male one's female, both are tame, both assigned to the same pasture and both are war trained. It's been 2 years and they haven't bred yet. Do some animals take longer to breed than others? In the original Dwarf Fortress I'd use Dwarf Therapist to see if either animal was asexual/homosexual but I can't seem to find a way to check that in the steam version

[@samsonpaule4137]

[@johanvanes9411]

in the past animals need an amount of squares if they are grazers. not sure about the steam version. (the size for every animal can be found on the wiki)

Very much appreciated :)

[@sakushimei]

Great video! Can you do one about animal hunting and what to do with cages with goblins or intelligent creatures?

[@johanvanes9411]

if cages are full of enemy. Put them in a pit and connect the cage to a lever. when you pull the lever the "person" is free. make a gladiator pit. fun to see if the elf or the goblin win! make sure you disarm them while in the cage. use them as target to train you crossbow dwarfs. (doing this now with a bronze colossus) or let your creativity speak for itself.

[@proglinuxoid]

I've killed an otter with a crossbow but still dwarfs ignore corpses even if i have a stockpile zone. I just can't butcher my game.. It sucks ;(

[@jimstanley_49]

Important addition: cut down all trees in your pasture. Why? The same reason you never allow dwarves to pick fruit with stepladders. Your pastured animals will climb the trees and get stuck there. Your only option will be to cut down the tree and the animal will probably be mangled in the process. I've had sheep and llamas climb trees, and I bet elephants can manage it too. Maybe, someday, the developers will find a way to determine a creature is trapped in a tree and decrease the pathing cost to jump out of it when they start to starve and dehydrate. Extra points if they get bad thoughts that discourage tree climbing in the future.

[@BlindiRL]

I've literally never had this happen. Unless something spooks them. So only needed in untamed wilds areas where creatures can be ran up trees.

[@jimstanley_49]

@@BlindiRL That could be. I started clearing the trees after the second time. It probably only takes a flock of kea passing overhead. I don't know how untamed an area has to be for them to show up.

@@Spaztik85 You only really need to enable "corpses" and "body parts" in the refuse pile. Bones, teeth, hooves, hair, wool etc. you can make use of in the crafting and farming workshops, so you can set up another refuse stockpile indoors with the rest of this stuff enabled (and these don't rot away therefore don't cause miasma). This also helps prevent your outside garbage pile from filling up so rapidly it's unmanageable.

Is there a limit to how many animals a certain sized pasture can support?

[@Mirality]

There isn't a hard limit, but they do eat the grass and it takes a while to grow back -- the rate will vary based on how much uneaten grass is around as well as rain and season and other biome conditions. So you do need a larger pasture to sustain more animals, or if in a slower growth biome.

[@johanvanes9411]

in the wiki about grazing there is a list on how big the area should be for each animal.

[@Mirality]

There is, but it's not especially useful. As it says itself the sizes are larger than actually needed because it doesn't take grass regrowth into account.

[@calico22]

quick question. What can i do with small animals in cages?

[@worlore1651]

Food and pets

[@kalaksed]

They can be tamed by animal handlers, which then makes them potential to be adopted by dwarves, esp those with a fondness for them (as seen in their preferences tab). This gives a happy thought and they should continue to get similar thoughts from interacting with said pet Otherwise, they mostly can wind up eaten as exotic snacks, which tends to give another happy thought, even if things we players generally find disgusting There are a few specific small critters that can be processed in various ways, though these can be finicky. Moghoppers (found in savage biomes with murky pools) can be turned into mog juice for cooking and purring maggots (from deep cavern layers) can be 'milked' for something that claims to be a milk and can even be turned into cheese

Bodies got rotten and whole lowest floor full of graves, slabs and rotten dead dwarves. Surely it is time for Zom, Forgotten Beast . This little(no) blind spider bringed nothing but friendship, good words for everybody, good musical sense and, of course, death. Love this game

[@peskyjellyfish]

Thanks for the nice tutorial. I am pretty sure that also mangled animal corpses can be butchered. If you have a standing order to ignore outdoor refuse (the default), then your dwarfs won't collect the corpses of the animals that met a bit of a violent death. Change the order (you can still ignore ourdoor vermin), and your dwarf will collect and butcher all non-rotten animal corpses.

[@gosodafrog]

Good to know that assigning a creature to a zone releases them from cages. I shit my pants when a giant cyclops that i captured was released and casually walked with Bomrek to the pit that we were throwing it in. I thought they would haul the cage...

[@Ryan-geeves]

Lol its a bit late for me learning the fact that you can neuter your pets, I had like 6 dogs that would constantly birth litters of 6 puppies at a time until there was atleast 30 puppies so my only solution was to create a puppy drowning chamber that would drain the corpses down deep into the earth. the worst part was leaving access to the drain so that the kids would watch 15 puppy corpses wash down stairs for an hour

I had a similar problem, in the span of a year (because I forgot to check the animals tab) my fort was literally filled with puppies. Had to geld every male because I don't think I'll ever need more than 40 dogs.

As a newcomer to this game this helped greatly. I accidentally embarked pretty close to a necromancer tower and 3 years in a group of like 10 zombies in copper/bronze armor and a necromancer showed up and ... well my 3 marksdwarves in leather armor did what they could. Further insult was that my militia captain got immediately raised as a zombie and continued to slaughter her former friends. I embarked in close proximity to that location again, this time actually building up a hammer-militia in decent armor so I can actually do something against undead who care very little about small pointy sticks getting shot into them. I also embarked with 3 elephants and I will now raise up a force of war-elephants and conquer my old fortress back.
