Goat Milk sells for more then duck mayo does, can turn the milk into cheese to make even more

First, you can ask anything you want as logn as you don't break the steam posting rules.

Second, you are best off having at least one of every animal, or most of them anyway. All of them (except perhaps dinosaurs) are useful for doing community center bundles and as gifts for npcs, and many have tertiary uses. I would suggest leaning towards goats and rabbits since they will produce the most useful items in the long run, while ducks and dinosaurs have limited use.

Rabbits: Wool and Rabbits Foot.

Goats: Goat Milk.

Ducks: Duck egg and Duck feather.

Chickens: Egg.

Dinosaur: Dinosaur Egg.



P.S.: You are aware that goats are Barn animals, not Coop animals like the others, right?

both are decent

ducks: can incubate eggs for more ducks, can give duck feathers for gifts, can check once a week to grab a bunch of eggs

goat: worth more, goat cheese can be aged, must be milked every other day or you lose profit

The answer is ducks. The reason is complicated.
On the surface it would look like goats as goat cheese is extremely valuable and actually gains a lot of value when aged in a cask, but at end game it isn't just about ROI (return on investment, or how much you make vs how much it cost) but cost per square. At end game you should be able to fill your entire farm with whatever you want and basically a coop takes us less space then a barn does. Especially when you consider grazing. You can fit 3x coops in the same space as 2x barns and if you had 36x ducks they would produce more money then 24x goats.

That said, normal chickens are actually the single most valuable item in the entire game.

Ducks or goats?

Neither.

Bees.

Bees are not as maintenance intensive. They don't need to be fed and they do not need to be pet on the head every day just to get them to produce.

Only downside is that they take the winter off.

Can't go wrong with bees.

(I do have a barn and a coop that I used to complete the animal bundle and get the greenhouse, but after that, I sold all the animals so I could tend my bees.)

this is one of the reasons i personally dont do animals it would take all day to pet all them everyday to get them to produce quality items i have trouble remembering to pet my 4 chickens every day

I typically keep a minimal set of animals (one of everything except a sheep, but including a void chicken) and even that's more work that I like. For bundles/gifts/cooking. I don't have animals for profits, prefer wine.

I do like cows though because cheese is an easy food that I use instead of elixirs :)

The answer is chickens

They don't need to be fed or pet just let them out everyday then that's it they give u eggs that can be turned into mayo or used for cooking for the mines and etc. And the eggs can be sold so can the mayo maybe for good money idk ive never tried even tho I have 2 chicken coops filled and so many eggs and year 3 in the game ive never tried

Void Chickens.

Goats sometimes give you 2-3 days no milk wich gets annoying checking everyday. I actually sold all my goats because of that.

Ducks are great though. Give eggs, even feathers now and then.
