* When offspring are slaughtered as babies, a female tortoise will produce {{#expr:{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|baby}} round 2}} nutrition of meat per day, giving a potential nutrition efficiency of {{%|{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|baby}}/{{P|Real Hunger Rate}} round 3}}. | * When offspring are slaughtered as babies, a female tortoise will produce {{#expr:{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|baby}} round 2}} nutrition of meat per day, giving a potential nutrition efficiency of {{%|{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|baby}}/{{P|Real Hunger Rate}} round 3}}. | ||

− | This does not consider the food required of male tortoises. A female:male ratio of {{#vardefineecho:femaleratio|{{#expr: 2/3*24*{{P|Egg Laying Interval}}/{{P|Mate Mtb Hours}}}}}}:1 reaches an optimal [[Animals#Mating|fertilization rate]]. With this ratio of tortoises, you reach a "true" nutrition efficiency of {{%|{{Meat Production|{{PAGENAME}}|Adult|{{#var:femaleratio}}|1 round 2}}/{{Nutrition Consumption|{{PAGENAME}}|Adult|{{#var:femaleratio}}|1}} round 3}}.

Some care must be used when managing tortoise eggs, as tortoises themselves are omnivorous and do not seem to discriminate against eating their unhatched young. Make use of restriction zones and hauling labor to pull freshly laid eggs away from animal pens and into safe hatcheries to maximize yield. | Some care must be used when managing tortoise eggs, as tortoises themselves are omnivorous and do not seem to discriminate against eating their unhatched young.
