How much mutton does a sheep give? EXPLAINED
As the title says, I'm playing on official and I need to know if i'll have enough mutton while taming giga/quetz


EDIT:
OK, I did more testing (harvesting and killing was done with a rex 320% damage). So the results are, HP GIVES MORE MUTTON, NOT HUNGER!!!.
I tested by spawning two level 1 sheep. One was upgraded fully to health, another was upgraded fully to hunger (gotten around 10k hunger).
When I killed the one with more hp, I have gotten 65 mutton.
When I killed the one with 10k hunger, I have gotten 11 mutton.
I've done this few times and the results are same, HP gives MORE MUTTON than HUNGER.
ANOTHER EDIT:
I have done the same by spawning in 2 level 150 sheep.
One was upgraded to hp another to hunger.
When I killed the one with hunger, I have gotten around 80 mutton.
When I killed the one with hp, I have gotten around 300 mutton.

Hope it helped ;)

Read it all again, still can't see how much mutton it drops when killed.

The amount of mutton it drops depends on the food stat from what I've heard.

depend on the sheep level and what you use to get its meat .
a low level gather by hand yield around 10 muttons , 45 if use giga .
A lv 100 will give more than 100 muttons with giga .

359-373 with a primitive pick on four different sheep, 7200 food each. Food stat definitely affects it, greatly. I can tell breeding Ovis with ihgh food stats will be very beneficial.

7200/360 = 20. Seems like for every twenty points for food you get one mutton roughly. Divide your Sheeps food stat by twenty and you havea rough estimate.

This isn't fact by the way, but I've tested it accros twenty different sheep and it remains the same. Be aware it takes ages to farm a sheep body though. I almost went through a pick per body.

whoa i didnt know food also has effect on mutton rofl... cant wait for the weekend to breed my lvl 207 male with those 10 females hahahaha infinite mutton

when killed the First sheep with asc. chainsaw (180dmg) i got arround 200 mutton, was low lvl sheep tho (official server at evo event, so 1.5x rates)

i also dont tame with kibble anymore, those 2 lvls you lose on mutton are not gamechanging...

way better than having 1000 dinos just to get 2 more points in a specific stat (its also not guaranteed that they dont go to oxy, food or whatever you do not want)

i killed all my dinos i dont need, including eggers...

Yeah in all honesty I think it's too much. Oh well, easy tames and pelt. ;)

But you need various kibbles if you want to imprint bred dinos...
