Necesse: Complete Animal Husbandry Breeding Guide

In survival games, there's always more than one way to achieve your goals. While *Necesse* offers various gameplay styles, one constant remains: breeding. Here's a comprehensive guide to mastering animal husbandry and breeding in *Necesse*.

How To Tame Animals in Necesse

Before you can start breeding, you need to tame your animals. Taming in *Necesse* is similar to *Minecraft*—it's all about offering treats. Wheat is the key here, a resource you can easily obtain by planting Wheat Seeds or finding them in caves. You can either feed Wheat directly to the animals or use Feeding Troughs for a more efficient approach. Feeding Troughs save time, allowing you to focus on fortifying your settlement and defending against raiders. However, neglecting to refill these troughs can lead to your animals losing taming progress due to hunger. Successfully tame your animals, and they'll be ready to join your settlement and start breeding.

How To Breed Animals in Necesse

Once your animals are tamed, you can begin breeding. Much like *Pokemon*, you'll need a male and a female of the same species to produce offspring. Build a fenced area for the pair, ensuring they are fully tamed. They'll enter Love Mode, and soon after, a baby will appear in the pen. It takes a few more minutes for the baby to grow into a full-sized adult.

Be cautious not to overcrowd the pen, as this can hinder the breeding process. It's better to use smaller pens for breeding and move animals in one at a time. This might seem time-consuming, but there's a way to automate the process, saving you the hassle of constant animal management.

How To Automate Breeding in Necesse

Not everyone enjoys the intricacies of animal husbandry, and that's perfectly fine. Once you recruit Settlers, you can assign an Animal Keeper to manage all aspects of your settlement's animal care, including maintaining full Feeding Troughs. This ensures all your animals, especially those designated for breeding, remain happy and healthy. While you'll still need to oversee the overall process, the daily management of animals will no longer be your top priority.

And that concludes our complete animal husbandry and breeding guide for *Necesse*.
