Coop Food Production

A Coop supplies meat for carnivorous slimes, and a Roostro enables Hen Hen multiplication.

WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

A Coop expansion at the Conservatory, stocked with Hen Hens and a Roostro.

Keep a Roostro with Hen Hens in a Conservatory Coop to produce a renewable chicken supply for meat-eating slimes. Treat the Coop as support for a particular Corral: check the slime’s diet and favorite food, keep enough chickens available for continued reproduction, and collect feed deliberately rather than emptying the Coop at once.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Newbucks to build a Coop.
  • Hen Hens and at least one Roostro.
  • Carnivorous slimes whose diet accepts the Coop’s chicken output.
  1. Check the Slimepedia to confirm that the intended slime eats meat and identify its favorite prey.
  2. Build a Coop at the Conservatory.
  3. Vacuum Hen Hens and a Roostro from Rainbow Island and place them in the Coop.
  4. Leave the Roostro with the hens so the Coop can produce more Hen Hens.
  5. Collect mature Hen Hens from the Coop when available.
  6. Feed chickens to the intended meat-eating slimes, reserving their favorite prey for the right pen.
  7. Return to the Coop and let its stock replenish before the next feeding round.

Farming tips

  • Keep a Roostro in the Coop; it is needed for Hen Hen multiplication.
  • Avoid feeding every available Hen Hen at once. Maintain the breeding group so meat production can continue.

Repeat, collect and use

Repeat collection and feeding as the Coop replenishes. This is a maintained production loop, not a one-time reward; reproduction depends on keeping the Roostro and hens together.

Common mistakes

  • Building a Coop without a Roostro; acquire one and leave it with the Hen Hens.
  • Treating every chicken as surplus; retain enough breeders to sustain the flock.
  • Feeding chickens to slimes that do not eat meat; check diet first and direct the harvest accordingly.

When to stop or switch

Reduce collection or change the Coop’s use when its flock cannot keep up with the target Corral’s feeding needs; restore stock before increasing demand.
