Probably Stolen rats: the cage, feeding with the dispenser and rat stats

Quick answer

Open the Animal Cage and drag your rats into the ANIMALS grid. To feed them, put food in the DISPENSER and press Blend: one 180 kcal Small Nutrifruit raised stored calories from 0 to 180 of 40,000. The dispenser feeds rats up to 85% hunger; Auto Blend was off. The Auto Butcher's tooltip says it goes inside a cage and harvests matching animals each night; we didn't install one.

Before you start

  • The Rat Wrangler start includes an Animal Cage, rats and food.

Open the cage and move the rats in

The cage's tooltip lists durability and stored calories (0/40000 kcal to start). It also says Metal Ingots expand it (5 upgrades remaining) and, from day 2, that Scrap Metal repairs it. Its durability fell from 100 to 97 between day 1 and day 2.

How metal ingots are made

  1. Right-click the Animal Cage and choose Open. We opened it from the counter.
  2. The cage window has three parts: DISPENSER with a Blend button, the ANIMALS grid and a BUTCHER slot.
  3. Drag each rat from your inventory into the ANIMALS grid. In our run one rat wouldn't drop in after the others were placed; we didn't establish why.

Feed the rats: load the dispenser and press Blend

The dispenser's tooltip says it blends food into stored calories for livestock and feeds up to 85% hunger. Auto Blend showed Off. Check the calorie reading after pressing Blend.

Read a rat's stats

Hover a rat for its stats. Our starting adult was a Male Adult Rat, 5 days old (350g): Health 100/100, Hunger 500/500, Fertility 50%, Growth Rate 1, Expected Litter Size 3, Immunity 30, Max Health 100, Longevity 1 and Hunger Rate 65. A 1-day-old Female Juvenile Rat weighed 50g and showed no Fertility line.

The Auto Butcher

Dr. Jackson sells an Auto Butcher (400 base, 460 with the +15% supplier markup on Mark Up). Its tooltip says it must be installed inside an Animal Cage or a RAS, harvests the animals matching its settings into its tray every night, and always ignores animals marked with the Marking Pen. We didn't buy one, so its settings and yields are untested.
