Food would be fine, although I could also use your +1/2 food researches to have surplus for domestication once we start hunting...
Really I'm trying to set myself up as the resident vet/domesticator/hunting assistant so as long as I can find people who need my services, I can always trade them for food and not keep a herd myself.
Alright.

Quote
If you'll include me the next round of teaching the +1/2 food researches I'll gladly teach you domestication.
I'd be game with that. Teaching next turn?
Probably teaching Companion Planting next turn.

Sure.  Turn updated.

What's the going rate for grafting once you next teach it?

I'll let you know when I teach it again. I'll probably wait for a couple more students.
Probably something like 1 food or some kind of tool or a promise of a tech I don't have yet.

(0)Tattle+1: No Entertainment to research.
(0)Tattle+1: The following entries seem to be missing from the first post
Code: (actions) [Select]
Hunting Trip (explore, cost: 4 time) - A rare collaborative effort, this allows a player to form or participate in a Hunting Party. To form a hunting party, declare your intent (you may only form one per turn). Others may then choose to join your hunting party (you may limit who joins). An initial, one person hunting party has a 5% chance to capture an animal. Every additional Hunting Trip action dedicated to this party, from any player, adds a 5% of success. Players with Keen Eyes add an additional 5% chance of success when they go on a Hunting Trip. If the hunting trip succeeds, a random animal will be pulled from the animal deck and granted to the player who lead the Hunting Party. Note that some animals are significantly rarer than others.
Butcher (labor, cost: 4+x time) - Turn a group of animals into food and other resources. The exact amount of time, and the amount of food or other resources produced, depends on the animal. Unless otherwise stated, a group of animals produces 1 food for the base time cost, by default.
Code: (actions with prerequisites) [Select]
Domesticate (care, cost: 10, requires Knowledge: Domestication) - Raise a group of animals such that they have a chance of becoming domesticated at the beginning of the next turn. Requires 1 food. Rate of success depends on the animal.
Code: (research) [Select]
Primitive Traps (cost: 15 time, 1 delite, produces a prototype) - Create a trap object to aid in hunting trips. May be used any number of times. Each player may only use one trap.
Improved Hunting Techniques (cost: 25 time) - Gain a bonus to success when hunting.
Animal Training (cost: 20) - Slightly increase chance of domesticating animals. More importantly, allow the training of work animals.
And the lack or required research may be an over-sight...
And for good measure I will be pasturising any wild animals that I end up with.

(0)do not yet return 1 Food Shaped Charm from Griffionday


P.S.
I would be interested in trading away two empty plots for an irrigated field.

P.P.S.
 Is happiness supposed to round up or down from bad Omens?

P.P.P.S.
 Griffionday, how about I give you two empty plots of land in exchange for the chuckplot?
 I am sort of strapped for actions at the moment, but it would be sad if you didn't get the firstborn chuckduck. I am happy for you have it, but some food would help the process.
 Do you want your trinket back?
 As for teaching domestication, it seems to me that only one person needs domestication, as its only real advantage is in letting you domesticate the critters after they are caught... But the more the merrier as far as knowledge goes I suppose...

Just thought of a question--is there any way to reduce maximum Happiness? And, if not, which technologies would help us research improved versions of Trinkets?

The chuckduck can go on any empty plot from what I can tell, so I could just give you the chuckduck for an empty plot (and the negation of the food consumed during the research, just so we're clear on this).  Provided I get the first offspring of course.
If you'd hold onto the charm for a bit that would be great.

I'm guessing GWG wants the knowledge so he can offer classes in all subjects, as a teacher trope; much as I'm going for a vet trope.  Yes we're already trying to form a service economy.

Question: do newborn animals require domestication?

Well, scientist/teacher, but yes. And yes, we are, but mostly because there's not a lot of goods available except food (which we can mostly make ourselves) and trinkets (which only one is ever needed).

Meh, it doesn't really matter, the duckies do nothing until they reproduce anyway but that sounds reasonable. Oh, but I may not be able to install them on a field, as I do not know domestication... I will go ahead and give you two fields though...

Clearly running multiple missions at the same time is a terrible idea.  The epic battle to see which team can cock it up worse has escalated again.

And Larry kinda gets blueballed in all this; just left with a raging bone spear and no where to put it.

(0) Tattle on GlyphGryph: Domestication allows construction of a Pasture Improvement for Empty Plots according to OP.
Yeah, I decided require even MORE a time investment to convert things to pastures wasn't really needed. So now, simply pasturing an animal in an empty plot makes that plot a "pasture". You can't farm a pasture. Also, this is something everyone can do.

So, yeah, technically everyone has a Pasture improvement that you can set up or break down for 0 cost. :P
(Not compatible with irrigated fields!)

I'll probably update and clarify the OP tomorrow sometime. There are some more pasture-related techs involving better, more advanced pastures, but those are all locked at the moment. And only one of them requires domestication.
