This article is about an older version of DF.

Domestic Template:Ls are creatures that can be used by dwarves one way or another without taming or training, usually for security or food. Distinguished by having the [DOMESTIC] tag in the Template:L, they can be bought at Template:L or Template:Ld for with Template:Ls. Wild versions of domesticated animals (horses, muskoxen, etc) can be Template:Ld and used normally.

Every embark starts with two free domestic draft animals which pulls the Template:L to the fortress site. This can be any of the animals in the list below with the [WAGON_PULLER] tag (Horses, Yaks and Water Buffalos) which are available at embark. Embarking with a sufficient quantity of goods can result in multiple wagons, each of which comes with another two animals. A fortress has no use for wagons after embark except, so these animals can be slaughtered or kept for breeding and making your dwarves Template:L as pets. The wagons can be deconstructed for Template:L

The player may choose which gender of animals to bring at embark. Only one male is necessary for breeding. Template:L, you may wish to limit breeding altogether.

Comparison of domestic poultry

All domestic poultry reach adulthood in 1 year and cost 6Template:L at embark. When butchered, all adult poultry yield one Template:L; those that yield bones also yield a Template:L.
