Butterfly Milkers vs Meat Collectors

Butterfly Collectors fill up 2 or 3 times as fast as Meat Collectors, while "manual" harvesting these animals gives the same harvest size. Why is that? Do the Butterflies enjoy being milked so much that they constantly let themselves be milked while I'm out?

  • I'm guessing it's because butterflies can be harvested more times per game day than pigs. Even with max animal skills, pigs are limited to 1 or 2 (can't remember) and butterflies are around 5.

  • Not mine.  There are a lot of variables that go into determining how fast collectors fill, and we testers don't really know what all of those factors are.  A couple are yard size and how many other animals are in the area.

    It's not true that you can milk butterflies 5 times per game day.  Only 2 with the max skills, just like pigs.

  • I actually have it in the opposite. My meat collectors fill up faster than my Butterfly milkers. But I attribute the faster fill-up rate for the meat collectors to the fact that I do have more pigs than butterflies.
