Frankly I'm sick of Mules and would like to replace them with rabbits for all the following reasons:

a.) Mules can't breed, Rabbits breed like well.... rabbits.
b.) Rabbits are an underground animal; they seem more Dwarven.
c.) You would think Rabbits would be a space efficient meat source
(though I understand that's not possible in game).

How do I edit the Raws to create/replace this animal?

There is also a meat production problem. You get a lot of meat from rabbits. Individual rabbits aren't big but you get a LOT of them. I imagine breeding rates are hard coded? Therefore, I'd make due with getting a lot of meat from one Rabbit to simulate the huge reproduction cycles that would flood rabbits and thus rabbit meat.

Questions? Comments? Ideas?

That should do it. A quick 3 minute mod of cows.

To answer your post, reproduction rates are somewhat fixed, but you can have a workaround by having large litters (I made them very large in this case). Also, if you wanted really fast reproduction rates, remove [CHILD:1]. That would cause rabbits to be born fully ready to breed.

Awesome, thank you.

Will they be standard animal livestock I can buy from the caravans/at embark?

[blah28722]

[COMMON_DOMESTIC] allows them to be bought during embark.

They're quite cheap too.

Yaay, I'd hug you but this is a computer.... Also might be awkward .

Seriously though thanks.

petvalue 75! I think that's a bit high...

EDIT: Rabbisplosion? sounds like something a dirty old Jew would do though...

Hey, 75 is pretty high.

Cows had something like 300 or 500. I assumed that was already pretty low and just made it a fraction of that for rabbits.

Didn't notice dogs having a petvalue of 30 :S
