Yes, it is not implemented yet. My question however was aimed at meat. But actually i would '''love''' to run a dairy ''inside'' a dwarven fortress ;) imagine the happy thoughts of Tobul drinking her first cup of home-made cow milk she so loves.. --[[User:Koltom|Koltom]] 12:41, 9 February 2008 (EST) | Yes, it is not implemented yet.

Husbandry queries
Is it possible to raise cattle? - I have a bull and a cow - will they eventually mate? do i have to cage them or smth? there doesnt seem to be a related workshop (except the butcher 'f course ;)) or skill ? is there an article covering this? --Koltom 17:39, 8 February 2008 (EST)
- Yeah the cow will have some calves sooner or later.--Ikkonoishi 17:46, 8 February 2008 (EST)
- They should be milkable at a farmers workshop but it seems it is not implemented yet. Do you really want to run a dairy farm, or a dwarven fortress?? ;) GarrieIrons 22:01, 8 February 2008 (EST)
