Milk is a raw food animal product obtained from tamed female animals of certain species only. Raw consumption does not cause negative thoughts and it counts as a meat ingredient for fine or lavish meals.

Handlers milk animals when they are ready, producing milk which will then be left on the ground. To avoid excessive hauling jobs, zone your milk-producing animals in a convenient animal area near your freezer.

Milk is interchangeable with meat for meal production. Milk has a slightly lower trade value (1.9 vs 2.0), weighs more (0.045 vs 0.03 mass), and lasts longer before spoiling (14 vs 2 days). Thus it is advantageous to sell your meat before your milk if you have an excess, and to buy milk from traders that come to you. For buying with your own caravans, meat is preferable if refrigeration isn't a problem (during winter or on very short trips), due to the lower weight.

The following animals produce milk:

  • The milk production is halved when the animal is hungry, reduced to one third when it is urgently hungry, and completely stopped when the animal is starving.
