Why do people say dung beetles pick up poop?

[༒ǝꞁf⚣٩๏̯͡๏)۶]

I put mine in human cages on wander but they've never gathered poop. Am I suppose to stick the dumb bug up a phiomia's colon?

Dung beetles have never collected poo. Not sure who told you that.

They convert feces in their inventory into fetiliser every 15 minutes when on wander.

S+ mod helps this out a bit with the hitching post to keep them still... But also the collector and farmer together help manage the beetle automatically

Well. My friend told me the same. So it must come from something

You'd have to ask them that then. Been playing since EA and it's never been automatic. Always had to manually fill.

At the time it came out I remember being shocked that it was something I'd have to manage manually. Was also surprised the Oviraptor didnt collect eggs either!

Yeh, both where a deception :O

Sounds like a mod. Kraken's Better Dinos mod for example has dung beetles auto collecting poop.

Yeah, I use Kraken's Better Dinos mod and it alters the dung beetles to pickup poop that is in their proximity.

S+ has the Farmer item that collects fertilizer and distributes it to crop plots. And the Farmer paired with the KBD dung beetle and having Phiomias near the beetles, is an automatic fertilizer setup as long as you occasionally pull the oil byproduct out of the dung beetles inventory.

S+ animal tenderer can pull the oil out and it also takes the paste out of snails so a good one to be running especially since it runs off any kibble therefore cheap to run.
