Rate Tips
To prevent them from wandering off randomly, whistle Stop One while mating is disabled. Then you can ride them around to position them for breeding, and once they're lined up you can enable mating and they'll stay put. To move a male between groups of females, just disable mating, whistle Stop One, ride it into position, and enable mating again. This makes breeding much less tedious than it would be otherwise.
Sometimes this doesn't work, possibly due to proximity to structures or other tames. Reposition and whistle, or cryo to fix.
For babies, pick them up with a maewing and drop them once to get them to stay put.
You can also pick up babies and full growns with a skiff tractor beam and they'll stay where you drop them.
