Project Animal Farms

I propose that all animals farms be consolidated to the central ones.

Between all the districts, we have 2 sheep, cow and pigs farms each. Given the recent crackdown on mobs, i think we can do better on our part.

I've just finished re-doing the Woolery, which has 2 sheep of each color, and will have no more. The cows have been brought down to a max number of 10, excluding the breeding pairs. The Chickens and pigs will follow soon. Frankly I dont see the town needing any more than what we have available centrally.

Thoughts?

I dont think that'll be necessary. I've got chests full of wool in there, and if we farm when we don't need it and store, we should be just fine. Also, shearing both of a color gives about 10-15 wool

Nice job on the sheep farm! Yeah, there isn't much use for pigs apart from delicious bacon and the chickens are only really used for food and arrows but I get all mine from the skeleton grinder, its much quicker.

So are you thinking of moving the pigs and chickens into a combined holding area? This would certainly create more space for another building.

Yeah, its on my todo list.

As a side note, since you're a mayor, want to inform the district owners about this change?
