Step-by-Step Process
- Find a Hog Farm with available slots (check capacity)
- Select an available slot (FCFS - First Come First Serve)
- Pay growth fee (goes to pen owner + treasury)
- Your Piglet is now locked in the pen (non-transferable)
- Claim 2 Manure daily (24-hour rolling window)
- Wait for growth to complete (12-14 days)
- Claim your Adult pig within 6 hours
⚠️
Claim Within 6 Hours
After growth completes, you have 6 hours to claim your Adult pig. After that, the pen owner can evict your pig to free up the slot. Your pig is returned to you, but it is inconvenient for everyone.
Manure Claiming During Growth
- Earn 2 MNR per pig per day
- Only the pig owner can claim (not pen owner)
- Rolling 24-hour claim window per pig
- Unclaimed Manure is lost forever
- Batch claiming supported (multiple pigs at once)
Manure Earnings Example

| Wooden Pen | 14 days | 28 MNR |
| Iron Pen | 13 days | 26 MNR |
