40d Talk:Muskox
With HORSES? are you sure? --- Zaratustra 00:34, 17 November 2007 (EST)
I highly doubt that claim. I've had a fort that has had one female muskox for the past two years and a whole bunch of horses. And yet no muskox calves. – unsigned comment by Bouchart
role[edit]
Muskoxen are available as domestic haulers This sorta implies they can be used in-game. I am assuming though they are only useful for hauling at the "embark" stage?
If they can be used in-game - then maybe there should be a page for domestic hauler or beast of burden or something?GarrieIrons 04:33, 7 February 2008 (EST)
that hasn't been improvised as of yet for carrying around things for players..--98.155.18.87 03:06, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
Genders on embark[edit]
I got one male and 3 females, is this normal? I bought two from the embark menu and got two for "free" Is there always one bull and the rest are females to maximize the amount of calves? --LASD 16:25, 7 May 2008 (EDT)
- The RNG just gave you two female muskox for pulling your wagon. You took along an extra two, which were determined by the "one male, then one female" clause. --GreyMario 16:40, 7 May 2008 (EDT)
Yield from slaughtering calves?[edit]
Does anyone know off-hand how long it takes for the calves to reach maturity, and what the yield from slaughtering them before then is? --220.255.7.102 08:16, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
- Muskoxen, like most (although not all) animals, have CHILD:1, so they grow to maturity after 1 year. Slaughtering a young animal always gives 2/3 of the meat, bones, and fat that an adult gives. --LaVacaMorada 09:11, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
