2727 Pet Taming Use

2929 Barley is one of the strongest small-bird foods when loaded into the Sigil of Bond feeder. Pigeons, sparrows, geese, Crow spawns, and parrots all accept grains, and Barley in particular produces a high-trust feed. Each successful Barley feed raises Companion Trust by roughly 25 points, which is fast enough to close most small-bird tames in a single in-game day given the five-interaction daily cap covered on the Pet Taming Guide.

3131 Placement matters as much as the food choice. The feeder should sit on high ground along the bird's flight path, either a cliff top near the target's patrol route or a hilltop with open sky above it, and the player should step back and wait the usual two to six minutes for the bird to spot the bait and glide down. Any small-bird species that patrols the placement area will accept Barley, so a single stocked Sigil can often tame multiple geese, pigeons, or sparrows in one camping session.

3535 Barley is widely available from grocery and grain vendors across most towns, which makes it one of the easiest bird foods to keep in reserve. A short shopping loop across a couple of major settlements usually fills enough Barley to feed the Sigil of Bond for several taming sessions, and because the item stacks in inventory, stockpiling 60 to 100 pieces before a long bird-hunting trip is a standard preparation step for anyone working through the small-bird side of the Companions roster.
