Shepherd's Hut
The Shepherd's Hut is where the Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd will breed and butcher sheep for food and wool. You will have to capture and bring in two sheep to the Shepherd's Hut , as the Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd will not catch and bring in any sheep.
Note: The Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd Shepherd will only keep two sheep alive per hut level, so at level 5 they will have ten sheep in their holding pens to breed and butcher. This means they will be faster at producing and collecting meat and wool. So:
| Building Level | Sheep Housed |
|---|---|
| 1 | 2 |
| 2 | 4 |
| 3 | 6 |
| 4 | 8 |
| 5 | 10 |
