v0.34 Talk:Meat industry
Hello! I'd love to contribute to the animal entries re:livestock industry, but I have no idea how, if there's a way, to figure out butchering products from the raws. Does anybody know how?

Inconsistent info on skin obtained through butchery
This page says that a butchered animal yields one skin:
Once butchered the animal will yield one skull (though hydras produce more than one), one raw hide and depending on the animal type a number of (prepared)(organ-)meat pieces, bones, and potentially horns, hoofs, fat and cartilage.
The Guineafowl page says that those birds fail to yield a skin at least half the time.
About half of the fully-grown animals will only produce a skull when slaughtered, no meat, fat or skin.
Which page is correct?
The second. Skulls are the only guaranteed butchery returns. The amount of everything else you receive depends on the size of the animal slaughtered. If the animal is too small, no meat, fat or skin will be gained.--Larix (talk) 12:25, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
