Starvation

Once my butcher starts hunting for small creatures - how do I get him to actually slaughter an animal so everyone can eat? Or do I need to make someone else a butcher so my butcher can have a snack?

Why does this shite always happen when the merchant turns up?? ;) GarrieIrons 07:36, 13 February 2008 (EST)

Hunger bug

First of all, i'm a new user, so if this needs putting somewhere else or whatever, just send me an e-mail or something. Anyway, I have a bug that keeps crippling my fortress. Sometime halfway through the year, my dwarfs (dwarves? i dunno :S) stop eating. completely. they then get hungry, tantrums kick off, and chaos ensues. any tips? --Shabang50 05:34, 1 March 2008 (EST)

Do you have food? If so, what KIND of food? They can't eat raw dead things, and they can't even eat butchered dead things. They also can't eat most kinds of uncooked fish. Also, did you make a food stockpile? Food left outside of a food stockpile will mass rot before long. --Shadow archmagi 06:20, 1 March 2008 (EST)
