Chapter 113: Self-Made Dish, Pork Bun
Xiao Feng carefully examined each goat and noticed the growth cycle specified for each one.
Razorback Goat: Cub
Growth Cycle: 90 days
Bloodfang Boar: Cub
Growth Cycle: 120 days
Xiao Feng observed that these growth cycles represented the period at which they could be slaughtered. However, if he chose to continue raising them, their weight and meat quality would improve over time.
Moreover, depending on the cooking method, the optimal slaughter time varied. Some preferred a younger goat for roasting within 5 months to a year, while a bit older goat was better for stewing. Also, female goats were tastier than males, their meat more delicate, but this all depended on the specific requirements.
Xiao Feng also noticed that the mutated goats and boars had shorter cycles, implying faster reproduction rates.
"Wait a moment! Why aren’t there any female goats here?"
Xiao Feng suddenly noticed an issue. If there were female goats, it would save costs in the future when they gave birth to offspring.
When he checked the store again, Xiao Feng found that the price for a female goat was twice that of other cubs, likely because of their ability to give birth. However, since the pens were already full, he decided to consider it for next time.
