I notice your design doesnt use incubators is there a reason its not worth using them for dreckos?

@@shalalameowmeow3601 icubators are always nice to speed up the process but i dont tend to use them unless im in a time crunch. i always end up with way too much resources like plastic anyways

it does take a while to get rolling but you dont have to think about getting oil for plastic anymore! i guess its kind of a give and take, but glad you like the design!

@@2LegitCity thanks for this design i used part of it seeing as there is no need for waiting for the dreckos now i still used the water idea to keep them contained to 2 platforms bottom platform is food top platform is sheering station and groom with a drop off, above i have a two incubators and i can use the extra eggs for food since dreckos take so long and live for so long and take so long to reproduce its not worth using them as a meat source because its not enough and not reliable for the amount of upkeep the creatures require. overall great build and a nice basis for other to build off of or just straight up copy. keep in mind that your pets dont really have to wait for you now they now line up at the station. but dreckos are still extremely slow so confineing them as much as possible is ideal and the water trick will surely come in handy for other ranchs.

im getting robbed yo

? ???????

@@jackt8587 ?

yup! balm lily has 0 maintenance so its great for the dreckos. sometimes i stack two of the same design with sheering in the middle, one with regulars and one with glossys and rely on them as a food source

its a great concept

you got it- theres some leeway to in that it doesnt have to be exactly like that but thats the idea

thanks! i believe its because glossys eat 100% growth, but regular dreckos do consume at 67%. i'm usually missing something to use the juicer, most of the time its the mushrooms.

@@2LegitCity Yes, mushrooms is the hardest. There usually only is a limited amount of slime. And need a puff farm or space missions, to get new slime.

well if you dont need to shear, you wouldnt need the 2-level setup and just have a flat with the grooming in the middle, farm tiles on both sides for grazing and then the water tiles. this would save the vertical travel of the dreckos to make it shorter if youre not looking to shear them

@@2LegitCity He was refering to not shearing the breeding Dreckos. You still have the shearing set-up with the excess, just don't bother with Hydrogen and shearing the breeding dreckos. You gain the majority of the shear from the extra ones. It basically cuts down on travel time waiting for Drecko, since you wouldn't need to bother with Hydroen (since Mealwood can't grow in Hydrogen) you have one floor for the breeding. 2nd floor is purely hydrogen and shearing. So, the ideal set-up would be something more along the lines of just one floor using water to block the dreckos from leaving the small area near the grooming station and having mealwood right there for them. It cuts down on waiting for drecko to get groomed and less automation to pick up all the eggs by limiting their walking space. Then you just ship them all to another room filled with hydrogen for shearing. Which you only need 1 room with them, you can put in an unpowered incubator, which if the main room is less than full a dupe will pull the drecko from the incubator and run them into the room automatically (so you don't need to set up multiple critter poles).

this guy plays ONI@@AlwinnSmash

nope i do not

nothing special, the overlay was shown and explained. the extra eggs are transported to the evolution box where they hatch and immediately evolve

@@2LegitCity thx for the answer.. love your oni content so far. I guessed i missed that overlay.

when is the shipping rail overlay displayed?

honest to God do you really need an overlay to see how a rail goes from a box to a chute? fuck me I'm really afraid of getting old and seeing the world get more stupid and lazy around me. @@RadicalJack1

nice! what changes did you make to the build?

@@2LegitCity It's a bit smaller on the lower part (mealwood) because i plan to have less dreckos, and there's a lot of decor haha. 3 incubators on the evolution room and only one shearing room. My shearing room have water on the sides so they can't walk more than 2/3 tiles and can't climb on ceiling. I'll add a couple of the new Pip on the incubation room too. I'm using that cycle sensor, as you do in another video!

@@hyanghenry oh nice upgrades, i see you over there

dirt for mealwood

there is very little automation, just critter sensor to the conveyor chute in the shearing rooms

i should release an updated video of my current version

@@2LegitCity Please do. Dreckos are probably the most important and complicated critter to ranch, especially as the only reliable source of phosphate even if you have reed fiber and plastic sorted.
