Tips & Strategies

Levels don't really matter with these, but aim for higher levels because you'll need all the weight you can get on these things to work even better.
More Dung Beetle Utility Tips
DO NOT UPGRADE WEIGHT!!! they will keep collecting past their weight just keep them in a cage.
Only upgrade weight
TIPP: (EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW)
1) They spawn inside the LOWER SOUTH CAVE and you can easily tame them up PASSIB using ROTTEN FLESH
2) If you put POOP inside their Inventory and let them WALK they will produce FRETILIZER and OIL after a period of time
3) I would recommend to JUST LVL UP THEIR WEIGHT so they can CARRY MORE POOP and PRODUCE more FERTILIZER and OIL
4) Build a small enclosure (or a box) for them to walk around inside it and also place a feeding trough filled with rotten flesh if you want
5) THEY CAN CLIMB OVER FENCES

This may sound weird but I think they are really cute
In ASA, they now have the ability to collect poop remotely and the range is based on overall level.
Tame a Phioma(Those fat gray pigs) and give them stim berries because they will start pooping a ton and you can fill your dung beetles that way for more fertilizer
Upgrade melee for range. Weight is useless . It will still collect poop and blackbox
The Dung Beetle creates fertilizer and oil when he poop are in inventory. It must be wandering to produce. To remain at that spot, place it in a cage on a foundation (ceiling = drop)
Once you use them for oil and fertilizer they will get hungry so instead of wasting their weight for food keep a feeding trough nearby with spoiled meatπ
After you use them for fertilizer and oil for awhile they will get hungry. They eat spoiled meat :)
