In survival games, versatility is key, and *Necesse* is no exception. While there are numerous strategies to explore, one constant remains: the art of breeding. Here’s your ultimate guide to mastering animal husbandry in *Necesse*.
How To Tame Animals in Necesse
Before you can think about breeding, you need to bring animals into your fold. Taming in *Necesse* mirrors *Minecraft*’s approach, where you win their hearts with treats. Wheat is your go-to resource here, which you can easily grow from Wheat Seeds or find in caves. You can either feed Wheat directly to the animals or use Feeding Troughs for a more efficient method. This allows you to focus on fortifying your settlement against raiders. Remember, neglecting to refill the Troughs can lead to animals losing their taming progress, so keep them well-fed. Once tamed, your animals are ready to contribute to your growing community, setting the stage for breeding.
How To Breed Animals in Necesse
With a tamed menagerie at your disposal, breeding becomes your next step toward expansion in *Necesse*. Just like in *Pokemon*, you’ll need a male and female of the same species to start a family. Enclose them in a fenced area, and if they’re fully tamed, they’ll soon enter Love Mode. A few minutes later, you’ll see a baby animal join them, which will grow to maturity in a short time.
Be cautious not to overcrowd your pens, as this can hinder the breeding process. Opt for smaller, dedicated breeding pens and move animals in pairs. While this might seem time-consuming, especially as you advance in *Necesse*, there’s a way to streamline your efforts.
How To Automate Breeding in Necesse
Not everyone has the time or inclination for constant animal care, and that’s where automation comes in handy. Once you reach the stage of recruiting Settlers, you can enlist an Animal Keeper to manage all aspects of husbandry, including maintaining the Feeding Troughs. This ensures your breeding pairs stay happy and healthy. While you’ll still need to oversee operations, the daily grind of animal management can be delegated, freeing you up to focus on other critical tasks in *Necesse*.
And there you have it—a comprehensive guide to animal husbandry and breeding in *Necesse*.
