What's the exact process behind milking a Purring Maggot? I managed to bag one in an animal trap, but milking jobs fail if it's inside an animal trap in the stockpile or a built cage. Does it need to be tamed by the Dungeon Master first?
- You need a purring maggot, either inside a trap or a cage; you need a farmers workshop; you need a bucket. If you have all three of these things, the milking should proceed. Supposedly, taming the purring maggot makes it unmilkable, but I haven't done that yet (though I have successfully milked one). The milk goes into the bucket, which can then get emptied into a barrel (if you want to milk multiple maggots, I suggest having one barrel and a few buckets). Vaniver 22:44, 26 February 2009 (EST)
