    Hello!

    I am a cook and most of my time is spent out in the world gathering meats, eggs, eyes (of the spider variety), etc.

    How about a farming skill that includes having domesticated livestock on our lots? Wouldn't it be cool to have cows, chickens, ducks, sheep, spiders (eep!) etc on our lots to harvest when needed? We could grow grain to feed them and provide water to drink and hay to sleep on.

    What do you think?

    Livestock would be cool, but it will require a large increase to the number of pets available on a lot. Its just not feasible with only a couple slots for them.

    bottle-feed the orphaned/rejected spiders, keep them in a box by the stove?

    Yea please.

    A few things :
    • The animation for the animal(s) should be client side and interaction restricted to be performance easy. So it should not be NPC based. Instead think a chicken coop with variable animations of chickens. But where you interact with the coop, not with the chickens.
    • They should have a collected starter and use some consumable-like farming uses seed+water. Where it would be great if taming had a use and if the consumable was crafted.

    Here is an old suggestion of mine from 2015 repeated in 2016.
