How To Milk
I can't seem to milk correctly. The dorfs'll milk, but they won't haul the buckets of milk anywhere, and just leave them in the workshop.
- ??? Mr. Anonymous, You're forgetting to have a stockpile with barrels available for the milk to be relocated to. I have fixed this on the milking page. Also, it appears that Dwarven Milk is gone. --The Architect 23:21, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
- I think they will also put buckets of milk on piles. It might have to be in a barrel to be used in cooking though. In any case, having the notorious 1 empty barrel on a food stockpile works. Dwarven milk is still in the lists, but obviously you need to have those maggots available. Why should it be gone? --Confused 12:50, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
- Perhaps he is referring to the fact that the home civilisation can be without dwarven milk.

Bug Template
This page is short enough that it doesnt need the known bugs tag.--Mrdudeguy 06:33, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
- The buggy template is for all features that have bugs. Just because the article is short doesn't mean you should remove the buggy template. Garanis 13:16, 11 April 2010 (UTC)
Milking Schedule
Anyone figured out yet how often creatures can be milked? I'm doing some experiments but I keep forgetting my milking schedule to get any reliable results. --Amade 22:20, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
