Nest Boxes
« on: February 20, 2011, 10:25:39 pm »

Since wild animals at present will claim nest boxes, can I put a nest box outside and surround it with cage traps to get myself a turkey or two?

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

Yes. Yes you can. And it is amusing. :D

When possible, she prefers to consume pear cider and nectarines. She absolutely detests kobolds.

Turkeys nothing, try catching cave crocodiles from the caverns.....

You could have berries on the rocks and the dwarves would say it was "berry gneiss."
You should die horribly for this. And I mean that in the nicest possible way.

Outside nothing. Put them in your meeting hall.

I wish I would have read this thread half an hour ago I just lost my whole fort to a cave crocodile.  I placed a nest box in front of my entrance to see if a goose would claim it... That was a bad idea.
