Vermin Nest output?

[asteari]

Crafted a vermin nest, and had it set to gather rats, but all 6 of the rats have a red cross on it and I can't transfer them to my inventory (it's not full, I have ample of space). Is there something I'm potentially doing wrong?

[Letterdief]

The rats will be running in front of the vermin nest. Normally (if you did not encounter a bug) you can pick them up like normal loot. Do you have a screenshot so we can see the problem?

Edit: just to be sure, you did feed the machine with plant fibres and bones?

They spawn outside of it and run around. They aren't inside the interface.
I was confused by the red X's as well at first. I think they may just be an indicator of how many are currently running around.

Yeah the tomb and vermin nest don't spawn inventory items but units. Rats and later silkworms are a bit unique because they spawn as moving critters on the ground despite not being something you fight.

The interface with the red x's just indicates that it's at capacity for spawning more rats until you pick up the ones that are around.

Did you move your castle? I realized the "output was full" because the rats were at my old castle location.
