For those of you familiar with the concept, how large should the room be so that dogs keep scrathing the kids? Would stuffing 10 kids and 2 dogs in a 1x1 box work just as fine as just one kid and one dog? Also, will the kids get hurt if I dump food and booze into the pit?

The kids will fight to the death if you put them all in one grave. Which might be what you want to happen, you never know.

Anyways you probably need a separate feeding zone to keep them alive now, unless you want to risk barrel dropping related injuries, but for optimal childcare you should have a 1x1 cell for each pair of child and puppy.

Ok, thanks. How should I make the feeding area? I was thinking of a simple door separating the actual box from another box with food in it. Also, any tips for keeping the little buggers sane until they grow up eventually?

Sounds good

~o,o~

Just try not to push them below very unhappy?

So, no statues etc needed?

Awww nuts, turns out kids don't respect burrows. I guess I'll have to expand the chamber a bit, so that it holds a bed. Then once the child goes to take a nap, I lock the door behind him/her. Should I use a cougar instead of a dog?

I've had weird luck with children and burrows. I put about 5 children in a burrow on standing on a minecart track which 1 out of the 5 did... and was promptly ran over. Another child was walking into the room at the same time and the one child bounced off the track into the other child in a fabulous pool game shot.

So yes sometimes children do respect burrows, but not always. You'll have better luck with the bed idea.

Finally got the kid trapped and a huge food stock set up for him(quantum stockpile). I dropped in a gibbon and 5 puppies but they won't fight. They are all on the same tile.
