How to farm sheep in Solarpunk

IN Solarpunkplayers can raise sheep on a farm to obtain sheep's milk, a key material needed to complete a key trade with the trading bot. Sheep farming basically works the same way as chicken and pig farming. The only difference is that instead of the chicken house or the pig house, you need the sheep house to house these animals. Here's the breakdown.

Sheep #1 (SE Iceland): Located right next to the big lake in the middle of the island.
Sheep #2 (SE Iceland): Found in the clearing at the top of the island's southern plateau. There is no direct road leading up to this part of the island. You must either land here directly using the airship or build a staircase up to the clearing.

To capture a sheep and bring them back to your base, you need two things:

Animal Reception Station x1

At this point in the game you should already have an animal reception station in your base, but if you removed it for some reason earlier, place one somewhere on the island where you want to start the sheep farm.

To transport the sheep, you just need to walk up to one, interact with it using an animal transport device and confirm the choice. The sheep will be immediately transported to your base.

Place the feeder and the water troughs near the sheep homes and fill them up with feed bags and waterrespective. As the sheep eat and drink in the farm, the progress meters showing their hunger, thirst and shelter needs will increase. When all three are in green, it means the sheep are ready to give you milk.

Come back again after an hour or so, and you should find Sheep's milk in the baskets attached to Fårhemmen. From then on, as long as the sheep are cared for, they will continue to give you sheep's milk.
