* Animal husbandry is only partially on the Epic [[curve]]. The curved value (effective skill) allows you see traits at that level (not true for bred in captivity trait which requires 60 numerical to see even on epic). The actual value (numerical) is used for computing the number of traits you can breed.

== Description ==
Animal husbandry allows for the production (breeding) of new creatures, sometimes with increased quality, without the need to wait for new [[spawn]]s.
** Activate a [[grooming brush]] and select ''groom'' while right-clicking on a groomable creature. This can be done to each animal once per hour.
** Grooming can be done while moving (and while mounted), so long as you do not move too far away (two tiles) from the tile you are currently working on.
** At AH skill level 40, you will be able to players can see exactly when the an animal will can be available for groomed, e.g. {{event|inline|You can groom her again in 44 minutes.}} ==Fly catching==*A small bit of [[honey]] in a [[pottery jar]] can be used, on animals that require grooming again, to catch [[fly|flies]] from them.**Flies can be used as fishing [[bait]]
==Shearing==
** Shearing can be done while moving, so long as you do not move too far away (two tiles) from the tile you are currently working on.
** Shearing can not be done while mounted.
*At AH level 50, players can see if an animal is ready to shear wool and/or ready to milk using Inspect Animal.
==Breeding==
* To breed, lead one animal with a [[rope]] (or any item should it be wearing a [[bridle]]) and approach the second. When they are close enough together right click on the second animal and select the "Breed" option.
**If too hungry or low on fat animals can die when giving birth.
** Animals can have miscarriages which may kill the mother with no offspring spawned. Starvation, being off-deed, or being on a deed with an animal-to-tile ratio of 15 or less (see character > settlement > info to see current deed ratio) are known as the reasons for miscarriages.
** Tamed animals who are pregnant can lose the baby if they go offline when you doThe creature ratio outside of deeds is always considered to be 10 which means more miscarriage and disease.
** Both animals should be of the same species, except in the case of horses and donkeys. When breeding a female [[horse]] and male [[donkey]], the foal is a [[mule]].
** Some animals require [[Tame|taming]] before being led; this does not apply to the second animal.
** Pregnancy times varies from 5-11 Wurm [[Wurm Universe|weeks]], regardless of species.
*** Examining the animal will show the remaining days left until birth; for example, {{event|inline|She will deliver in about 4 days.}} This is approximately 4 days, or 4 [[Wurm Universe|Wurm weeks.]]
** At higher AH skill levels, examining the animal will show a more and more precise pregnancy timer.
*** Below AH skill level 45, it shows e.g. {{event|inline|You make an educated guess that she will give birth in 2 days.}}
*** At AH skill level 45, the timer becomes slightly more precise, e.g. {{event|inline|You predict she will give birth in 4 days.}}
*** At AH skill level 50, the timer includes approximate hours, e.g. {{event|inline|You predict she will give birth in 6 days, 9 hours.}}
*** At AH skill level 63, the timer becomes more exact, e.g. {{event|inline|You feel confident she will give birth in 5 days, 5 hours.}}
** Breeding female animals with [[animal conditions|conditions]] such as [[Champion]] will provide a chance that the offspring will also have that characteristic. This chance is dramatically increased when breeding two animals with the same condition together. (Two Champions for example.)
** Breeding two animals with the same trait greatly increases the chance that the offspring will have the trait.
** The horse's color from birth is determined based on a combination of the mother's color, father's color, and random chance, similarly to traits.
** Breeding can be done while moving, so long as you do not move too far away (two tiles) from the tile you are currently working on.
=== Inbreeding ===
**Inbreeding will now cause the max point value to be divided by 1.5.
**There is still a cap of 10 traits per creature (this does not include 0 point traits like ''bred in captivity'').
* Traits fall into several categories:
**Speed: These traits will increase the speed of a creature when riding on them. These traits do not affect the speed of hitched animals.
**Output: These traits increase results from butchering output, shearing, and milking.
**Miscellaneous: These traits don’t fit any other category. They may be positive or neutral traits.
===Inspect Animal===
*The ‘Inspect animal’ ability is gained at 10 Animal Husbandry skill.
*Players can see information about if an animal is hungry, breedable, and/or groomable.
*Use ‘Inspect animal’ on bred creatures to see traits.
**This displays all traits of a creature that you can see with your Animal Husbandry skill level. It also displays the categories of the traits you can’t normally see. With higher skill, you’ll be able to see other details in the Inspect animal window, such as time until a creature can be bred again, time until a creature can be groomed again, or whether a creature is hungry, or age of the creature.
