Maybe this should be a toggable option in work orders so that people who are confident in the amount of pasture they have dont have to individually asign the new animals and people who want to micromanage each animal can do so.

First of all.. switch to pigs! They don't starve 8D!

But yah, I can see this leading to hilarity. How bout make animal caretakers somehow move them between pastures for us?

The trouble with pigs is you can only turn them into clothing once.

Listen up: making a thing a ‼thing‼ doesn't make it more awesome or extreme.  It simply indicates the thing is on fire.  Get it right or look like a silly poser.

It's useful to keep a ‼torch‼ handy.

So, has this change actually been implemented in 34.11? My newly-hatched and free-roaming goslings say no. Is it maybe only for grazers?

I think I've seen it mentioned somewhere that it doesn't apply to nesters. Or maybe it only applies to grazers. Either way, it doesn't seem to apply to birds.

Have them killed. Nothing solves a problem quite as effectively as simply having it killed.

Yeah, there's a bug report up there that this change doesn't apply to creatures born from eggs.

Bug #5990: Babies hatching from eggs aren't auto-assigned to pastures
