NK Turkey fields

Introduction
Turkey fields are used to raise turkeys, which produce eggs and tukey carcasses. Eggs provide 1 hunger point and 1 intelligence point per unit. Turkey carcasses are sold to a butcher who turn them into pieces of meat which provide 2 hunger points and 2 strength points per unit.

Turkeys cost 45 quachtli and you can have 4 turkeys in a field.

Turkeys should be fed every day, this is free and does not cost you any time either. Simply click to feed them and you are done, this job takes up the time of a single click so you are free to do work for the day on something else.

 The Turkey 

A turkey is defined by 2 main characteristics.
 * Weight
 * Age


 *  Weight 


 * The weight of the turkey determines how many carcasses you will harvest from slaughter and their worth/quality which will affect how many pieces of meat the butcher can produce from them.


 * Their weight is shown by their condition.


 * 1) Dying
 * 2) Emaciated
 * 3) Thin
 * 4) Normal
 * 5) Appealing
 * 6) Fleshy
 * Fat
 * 1) Obese
 * 2) American Style


 *  Age 


 * A turkey can live to an average of 17 days (2 1/2 weeks) and during that time you can harvest eggs. It is best to harvest the eggs once every 3-5 days. The amount of eggs harvested depends on the number of intelligence points the egg collector has.


 * Turkeys can die prematurely or live much much longer but don't put all your eggs into on basket. Don't wait too long to slaughter your turkeys or you could lose the carcasses that would come from it if they die.

Cultivation

=>Eggs

You require a Hamper to harvest eggs. A hamper lasts for 24 turkeys, 6 harvests if you have a full pen of 4 turkeys, on average, they can break before that or after.

Eggs are best harvested every 3-5 days (or more if you're lazy), they are worth 1 hunger point and 1 intelligence point

Check your Calpulli or market for the clans' average prices.

=>Turkey Carcasses

You require a flint knife to slaughter turkeys.

It is best to slaughter your turkeys around the age of 15-17 days old. If you want time to get them fatter you can risk more days but careful they may die on you then you will lose the valuable carcass that would come from them.

A turkey that grows 2 times in its life will produce 3 units of turkey carcass, if it grows 3 times it will produce 4, and so forth.

Eggs are good for you to keep for yourself if you are trying to build up your intelligence stats. check your Calpulli or market for the general pricing of Eggs and Carcasses.
