11Overview22Every animal in Starsand Island produces byproducts that can be collected, sold, gifted to NPCs, or used in crafting and cooking. There are 24 distinct animal products in the game, and they fall into two broad categories: Processing items and Bounty items. Processing items serve as raw materials for recipes at stations like the Grinder, Loom, Charcoal Kiln, Feeder, Fertilizer Box, and Ammo Maker. Bounty items are primarily sold for profit or gifted to NPCs, though several also serve as crafting materials for automation buildings.44Animals produce byproducts daily after eating, and the quantity and quality depend on the animal's happiness, age, and DNA traits. All animals also produce Poop (used for Fertilizer) and have a chance to drop Silver Poop or Golden Poop, which sell for significantly more than standard Poop.77Complete Product Reference99The table below lists every animal product in the game, which animal produces it, whether it is a Processing item or a Bounty item, and its primary use. Products are sorted by category.1111Processing Products1313Processing products are raw materials consumed by crafting stations to create seeds, textiles, glue, feed, fertilizer, and ammunition.1515ProductProduced ByPrimary UseStationMoo BallCowFlower seed grinding (30+ recipes)GrinderHorse DewHorseTree sapling seed grindingGrinderHoneyBumblebeeTree sapling seeds, fertilizers, feed, craftingGrinder, Fertilizer Box, Feeder, WorktableSheep SalivaSheepGlue productionCharcoal KilnFurPig, Horse, CowLeather and colored Fabric productionLoomWoolRabbitFlannel production, Brush craftingLoom, Worktable IEggChicken, DuckCooking recipes, animal feed craftingGas Stove, Campfire, Oven, FeederMilkCowCooking recipes, Advanced Bait, animal feedGas Stove, Campfire, Juicer, Worktable III, FeederFeatherChicken, DuckClothing, barn construction, Dream CatcherSewing Table, Worktable IPoopAll 11 animal speciesFertilizer tiers, Stink Bomb, Stinky ArrowFertilizer Box, Ammo MakerRabbit PoopRabbitChicken Feed, Duck Feed craftingFeederSheep Cheese BlockSheepDeer Feed, Horse Feed, Musk Deer FeedFeederMusk CocoonMusk DeerAlpaca Feed, Ostrich Feed craftingFeederDeer AntlerSpotted DeerProcessing (recipes pending)TBDOstrich EggOstrichProcessing (recipes pending)TBDAlpaca WoolAlpacaSelective Breeding House craftingWorktable IIIAlpaca SpitAlpacaProcessing (recipes pending)TBD1717Bounty Items1818Bounty items are primarily sold for profit or gifted to NPCs.

Animals are organized by their Rancher profession unlock tier.2525Apprentice Rancher2727AnimalPrimary ProductsPurchase CostNotesRabbitWool, Rabbit Poop75 coinsAlso clears 5-15 weeds per day depending on variant. Luna Rabbit clears the most (15).2929Rabbits are the first animals you unlock after speaking with Pastelle at the Green Pasture Ranch. They are cheap to buy and Wool sells decently early on. Four rabbit variants exist: Common, Dango, Lop-eared, and Luna (glowing pink). Rabbit Poop is essential because it is a required ingredient for crafting Chicken Feed and Duck Feed at the Feeder.3030Junior Rancher3232AnimalPrimary ProductsPurchase CostNotesChickenEggs, Feathers, Chicken Claw300 coinsClears bugs (5-15 per day). Variants: Common, Ink, Pearl, Golden.DuckEggs, Feathers300 coinsEats snails (5-15 per day). Variants: Common, White, Jade, Glazed.3434Chickens and Ducks both produce Eggs and Feathers. The main difference is their pest control role: Chickens handle bugs while Ducks handle snails. Giant Eggs can drop from birds with high happiness. Eggs are one of the most versatile products in the game because they are ingredients in 10+ cooking recipes and also required for crafting Cattle Feed, Sheep Feed, Pig Feed, and Royal Jelly Feed at the Feeder.3535Intermediate Rancher3737AnimalPrimary ProductsPurchase CostNotesPigTruffle, Fur, Unknown Mud Pile650 coinsDigs up truffles.

Breeding Snowool + Ebowool produces rare color variants.BumblebeeHoney400 coinsQueen Bee variant found in Large Beehives (not purchasable). Queen produces more Bumblebees.3939Cows are the standout animal at this tier because they produce four distinct products. Moo Ball is used to grind flower seeds at the Grinder, Milk is a key cooking ingredient and component of Advanced Bait, Fur feeds into the Loom for Leather and Fabric, and Sleep Sand is a bounty item that also is a crafting material for the Auto Shearer.4040Sheep are the most product-diverse animals overall. A single sheep produces four different items daily: colored Wool, Sheep Milk, Sheep Saliva, and Sheep Cheese Block. By breeding Snowool and Ebowool together, you can unlock 12+ color variants (Blue, Cyan, Green, Orange, Purple, Red, Yellow, Cloud, Duswool, Fluffwool, and more), each producing wool in their respective color. Colored wool combines with Fur at the Loom to produce matching colored Fabric for clothing crafting.4242Senior Rancher4444AnimalPrimary ProductsPurchase CostNotesHorseHorse Dew, Fur1,350 coinsRideable (2 people).

Not rideable.4646Senior-tier animals are primarily valued as mounts. Horses carry two riders, making them the only two-person mount before the endgame. Horse Dew is used at the Grinder alongside Honey to produce tree sapling seeds for Apple and Orange trees. Musk Cocoon is a required ingredient for crafting Alpaca Feed and Ostrich Feed at the Feeder, tying Senior-tier products directly into Expert-tier animal care.4747Expert Rancher4949AnimalPrimary ProductsPurchase CostNotesAlpacaAlpaca Wool, Alpaca Spit2,750 coinsRideable (1 person).OstrichOstrich Eggs, Feathers2,750 coinsRideable (1 person).5151Expert-tier animals are expensive but produce premium products. Alpaca Wool is among the most valuable recurring byproducts in the game and is required alongside Musk to craft the Selective Breeding House at a Worktable III. Both Alpacas and Ostriches double as mounts.5252Processing Chains5454Animal products feed into multiple crafting and processing stations across the island. This section covers every major processing chain that uses animal products as inputs.5656Grinder: Seeds From Animal Products5858The Grinder is a processing station unlocked at the Senior Farmer tier. It converts raw crops into seed packets, and two animal products play a central role in this process: Moo Ball and Horse Dew.6060Moo Ball (Flower Seeds)6262Moo Ball is produced by Cows and is the key ingredient for grinding crossbred flower variants into seed packets. Each recipe requires the crossbred flower plus Moo Ball. There are 30+ flower seed recipes at the Grinder that use Moo Ball:6464Recipe PatternIngredientsOutputColored Moonrise, Orchid, Rose, or Tulip seeds2 colored flowers + 2 Moo BallMatching flower seed packetColored Sleep Lily seeds2 colored flowers + 1 Moo BallMatching Sleep Lily seed packet6666Available flower colors include Black, Brown, Green, Orange, Pink, and Purple. Each color has Moonrise, Orchid, Rose, Tulip, and Sleep Lily variants, creating over 30 individual recipes. This makes Moo Ball one of the highest-demand processing products for players who crossbreed flowers.6767Horse Dew (Tree Sapling Seeds)6969Horse Dew is produced by Horses and is used alongside Honey (from Bumblebees) to grind fruit into tree sapling seeds:7171OutputIngredientsApple Sapling4 Apples + 2 Horse Dew + 5 HoneyOrange Sapling4 Oranges + 2 Horse Dew + 5 Honey7373Tree saplings can be planted any time of year but only bear fruit during summer and autumn. Since saplings produce unlimited harvests, grinding your own saplings eliminates the need to purchase them from the Happiness Seed Shop.7474Loom: Textiles From Fur and Wool7676The Loom transforms animal fibers into textiles used for clothing crafting at the Sewing Table and other recipes.7878OutputIngredientsNotesLeather2 FurBasic textile.

Since each colored Fabric requires both colored Wool and Fur, the Loom creates a dependency chain between sheep breeding (for wool colors) and keeping at least one Fur-producing animal (Pig, Horse, or Cow).8181Charcoal Kiln: Glue From Sheep Saliva8383The Charcoal Kiln produces Glue using Sheep Saliva:8585OutputIngredientsGlue2 Sheep Saliva + 2 Fiber8787Glue is used in various crafting recipes across the game. Since Sheep Saliva is exclusively produced by sheep, this creates another reason to maintain sheep in your herd beyond wool production.8888Feeder: Animal Feed From Animal Products9090The Feeder station crafts feed for all animal species. Several feed recipes require byproducts from other animals, creating a chain where lower-tier animals support higher-tier ones:9292Feed TypeAnimal Product RequiredOther IngredientsChicken Feed1 Rabbit Poop2 Vegetable JuiceDuck Feed1 Rabbit Poop2 Vegetable JuiceCattle Feed1 Egg1 Pasture Grass + 2 Fruit PulpSheep Feed1 Egg1 Pasture Grass + 2 Fruit PulpPig Feed1 Egg2 Fish FilletRoyal Jelly Feed1 Egg + 5 HoneyNoneHorse Feed1 Sheep Cheese Block + 1 Milk3 Pasture Grass + 3 Vegetable JuiceDeer Feed1 Sheep Cheese Block + 1 Milk3 Pasture Grass + 3 Vegetable JuiceMusk Deer Feed1 Sheep Cheese Block + 1 Milk3 Pasture Grass + 3 Vegetable JuiceAlpaca Feed1 Musk Cocoon + 2 Honey2 Pasture Grass + 1 Protein PowderOstrich Feed1 Musk Cocoon + 2 Honey2 Pasture Grass + 1 Protein Powder9494This feed chain is why experienced ranchers recommend unlocking animals in tier order. Rabbits supply Rabbit Poop for Chicken/Duck Feed. Chickens and Ducks supply Eggs for Cattle/Sheep/Pig Feed. Sheep supply Cheese Block for Horse/Deer/Musk Deer Feed. Musk Deer supply Musk Cocoon for Alpaca/Ostrich Feed. Skipping tiers means you have to buy feed instead of crafting it.9595Fertilizer Box: Poop into Crop Boosters9797All 11 animal species produce Poop, which is the core ingredient for Fertilizer production. Fertilizer Boxes at various upgrade tiers produce different fertilizer types:9999FertilizerBox TierPoop NeededOther Key IngredientsRipening Fertilizer IIFertilizer Box II1Garlic, Moonflower PollenRipening Fertilizer IIIFertilizer Box III2Fish Fillet (2), Peanut, Moonflower Pollen (2)Ripening Fertilizer IVFertilizer Box IV2Fish Fillet (3), Peanut (2), Moonflower Pollen (3), Fruit Pulp (3)Ripening Fertilizer VFertilizer Box V3Fish Fillet (3), Peanut (3), Moonflower Pollen (3), Spirit Fruit PulpYield Fertilizer IIFertilizer Box II4Protein Powder (8), Soybean (4), Moondew Shroom (3)Yield Fertilizer IIIFertilizer Box III7Protein Powder (12), Soybean (7), Moondew Shroom (5)Nutrient Soil IVFertilizer Box IV2Fluffweave Ash, Honey (2)Nutrient Soil VFertilizer Box V3Spirit Fruit Pulp, Fluffweave Ash, Honey (3)Gmax Fertilizer IIIFertilizer Box III5Primorite (4), Honey (4)Gmax Fertilizer IVFertilizer Box IV7Primorite (6), Plainberry Powder, Honey (6)Gmax Fertilizer VFertilizer Box V10Primorite (8), Plainberry Powder (2), Honey (8), Spirit Fruit Pulp (2)101101Higher-tier fertilizers require both more Poop and more Honey. This means ranchers with large herds (producing lots of Poop) and a healthy bee colony (producing Honey) can sustain top-tier fertilizer production for their crops. Keeping multiple Fertilizer Boxes near your animal enclosures is the most efficient setup.102102Ammo Maker: Stink Ammunition104104The Ammo Maker uses Poop to craft novelty ammunition:106106OutputIngredientsStink Bomb1 Poop + 1 Simple PelletStinky Arrow1 Poop + 1 Arrow108108Both items are useful for crowd control and have comedic value. They are not the strongest ammo options but can be produced cheaply with the Poop that accumulates from daily animal care.109109Cooking Recipes Using Animal Products111111Eggs and Milk are the two animal products most commonly used in cooking recipes. Here is a complete list of dishes that require animal products:113113Egg Recipes115115DishIngredientsStationRarityFried Egg2 EggsGas Stove / CampfireITea Egg2 EggsGas Stove / CampfireIMayonnaise1 Egg + 2 Sugar + 1 Fine SaltGas Stove / CampfireISeaweed Egg Drop Soup2 Eggs + 2 WakameGas Stove / CampfireISteamed Rice Roll1 Meat Bites + 1 Flour + 1 EggGas Stove / CampfireICentury Egg & Pork Congee2 Meat Bites + 1 Egg + 1 RiceGas Stove / OvenIEgg Yolk-Filled Cookie1 Egg + 3 Sugar + 4 FlourOvenIEgg-Fried Rice2 Eggs + 4 RiceGas Stove / CampfireIIScrambled Eggs With Tomatoes2 Tomatoes + 2 EggsGas Stove / CampfireIIYangzhou Fried Rice2 Eggs + 2 Corn + 3 Meat Bites + 4 RiceGas Stove / CampfireIII117117Milk Recipes118118DishIngredientsStationRarityBlack Forest Cake8 Flour + 2 Sugar + 2 MilkGas Stove / CampfireICheesecake8 Flour + 2 Sugar + 2 MilkGas Stove / CampfireIMilky Candy3 Sugar + 3 Flour + 2 MilkGas Stove / CampfireIStrawberry Mousse1 Strawberry + 4 Flour + 1 Sugar + 1 MilkGas Stove / CampfireITiramisu8 Flour + 2 Sugar + 2 MilkGas Stove / CampfireIMango Sago2 Sugar + 2 Milk + 1 CoconutJuicerII120120Giant Egg Recipes121121DishIngredientsStationRaritySuper Nutritious Omelette2 Giant EggsGas Stove / CampfireI123123Crafting Recipes Using Animal Products124124Beyond processing and cooking, several animal products serve as components for tools, bait, clothing, furniture, and automation buildings.126126Tools and Bait128128OutputIngredientsStationBrush2 Softwood + 2 WoolWorktable IAdvanced Bait8 Honey + 4 Milk + 7 Protein PowderWorktable IIIDream Catcher4 Feathers + Carbon LineWorktable I130130Automation Buildings131131Expert-tier Rancher automation buildings use bounty-class animal products as crafting materials:133133BuildingAnimal Product RequiredOther MaterialsStationAuto Shearer5 Sleep Sand4 Eternal Alloy, 2 Perpetual Reactor, 1 Chip, 5 Meteor PlankWorktable IIIAuto Milker5 Sheep Milk4 Eternal Alloy, 2 Perpetual Reactor, 1 Chip, 5 Meteor PlankWorktable IIISelective Breeding House8 Alpaca Wool + 8 Musk8 Spring, 6 Eternal Alloy, 6 Meteor PlankWorktable IIIPoultry Egg Station3 Giant Eggs4 Hardwood Planks, 4 Gears, 6 Premium Wool, 3 Iron SheetsWorktable II135135These automation buildings reduce daily chores by automatically collecting products from animals. Building them is a long-term goal that requires both advanced materials from late-game content and specific bounty items that only come from raising animals to high happiness levels.136136Barn Construction138138Feathers are required to build several animal housing structures at the Worktable:140140StructureFeathers NeededOther MaterialsCattle Barn4Hardwood Planks, Iron Nails, Premium WoolPigsty4Hardwood Planks, Iron Nails, Premium WoolSheep Barn4Hardwood Planks, Iron Nails, Premium Wool142142Product Quality143143Animal products come in quality tiers that directly affect sell price. Higher quality products sell for significantly more. The quality system ties into animal happiness and DNA traits.145145Quality TierRequirementSell Price MultiplierNormalAnimal is fed and at least juvenile age1x (base price)SilverOccasional drop. Higher happiness and Quality Producer trait increase rateRoughly 1.5x base priceGoldAdult animal with happiness at 150 or aboveRoughly 2-3x base price147147How to Maximize Product Quality148148Animal happiness is the single biggest factor in product quality. Here is how to keep it high:150150ActionEffectPet dailyIncreases happiness. Interact with each animal once per day.Play UkulelePlaying music near animals doubles the happiness boost 50% of the time.Hand-feed treatsFeeding animals special food by hand grants extra happiness and can double byproduct output for the day.Keep enclosure cleanDirty enclosures reduce happiness. Clean regularly.Use Mirth FeedMirth Feed variants from Mirth Feeder boost happiness faster than standard feed.Breed for OptimismThe Optimism DNA trait doubles happiness boosts 50% of the time.Breed for Quality ProducerThis DNA trait directly increases the chance of producing higher-quality products.152152Selling Animal Products153153Animal products can be sold at any shop via the Sell tab, or placed in the Quick Shipping Box on your farm. The Merchant Ship visits periodically and buys products at 200% of their base price. If you are holding Gold-quality products, always wait for the Merchant Ship to maximize profit.155155Silver Poop and Golden Poop sell for significantly more than standard Poop. While Poop is best used for Fertilizer production, Silver and Golden Poop are worth selling outright unless you need bulk fertilizer materials.157157DNA Traits That Affect Products159159Through breeding, animals can inherit DNA traits that affect their productivity:161161TraitEffectQuality ProducerHigher chance of producing Gold/Silver quality products.WorkaholicAnimal performs its work action (weeding, pest control, etc.) more times per day.Twins30% chance of producing an extra offspring when breeding.PrecocialGrowth time reduced by one day (reaches adulthood faster).StrongBreeding cooldown reduced by one day.OptimismHappiness boost is doubled 50% of the time.BulkinessIncreases animal size (cosmetic).PrideCannot be petted (negative; sell animals with this trait).PetitenessAnimal stays tiny (cosmetic, negative for some breeding goals).BloomDecreases happiness boost by 1 point (negative).163163Tips164164TipDetailsPet every animal every dayIt costs nothing and is the most reliable way to build happiness over time.Prioritize breeding for Quality Producer and OptimismThese two traits together make Gold-quality drops much more consistent.The Breeding House (3,500 coins at Intermediate Rancher) lets you isolate specific pairs and control trait inheritance. Worth the investment.--Sheep are the most product-diverse animalsA single sheep produces four different items daily (colored Wool, Sheep Milk, Sheep Saliva, Sheep Cheese Block), making them excellent for both income and crafting supply.Cows are the best all-roundersWith Milk for cooking, Moo Ball for flower seed grinding, Fur for Leather/Fabric, and Sleep Sand for automation crafting, they contribute to every major processing chain.Hold Gold-quality products for the Merchant Ship (200% price)The difference between selling normally and selling at 200% adds up fast over time.Keep multiple Fertilizer Boxes near your animal enclosures. All animal Poop converts into Fertilizer, which boosts crop quality on your farm. Higher-tier Fertilizer from upgraded boxes makes an even bigger difference.--Unlock animals in tier order to sustain the feed chainRabbits produce Rabbit Poop for Chicken/Duck Feed. Chickens/Ducks produce Eggs for Cattle/Sheep/Pig Feed. Sheep produce Cheese Block for Horse/Deer/Musk Deer Feed. Musk Deer produce Musk Cocoon for Alpaca/Ostrich Feed.Build multiple Grinders if you grind flower seedsMoo Ball recipes take time to process, and having several Grinders running in parallel saves a lot of waiting.Colored Fabric requires both colored Wool and FurMake sure you have at least one Pig, Horse, or Cow for Fur production alongside your sheep breeding operation.
