Guys, I wanna know, what's the best food to feed your faeries? PetCo stopped selling food for them a while back, and I haven't been able to find a decent replacement just yet. I've been getting by on giving them a saucer of milk a day, but the Faery King's been getting kinda pushy about something more lately and I'm reaching the end of my rope. Any goons got any good advice? I wouldn't be here if it wasn't my last hope, honestly.

Where exactly do you think angel dust comes from?

But really, as far as what food they like, maybe ask 3 Olives what he likes to eat

It's a pretty short drive (for this town at least) if I am remembering correctly, but I don't wanna drive down this time of night to find out.

If driving or internet ordering isn't an option, you may have to make your own. This Fairy Food Recipe works wonders for the wild faries that my neighbor feeds. You may want to consult with GWS to see if there is a better recipe.

If you lived in Australia, you could feed them fairy bread.

Try mojitos. And if that doesn't work, set out a Cosmopolitan.

What's the goon consensus on faerie mills and de-clawing your faerie?

I find nectar and sugar-water work a treat. The only problem is your local hummingbirds might get territorial, so watch out for them.

Fairies ground in a mill produce faerie dust at a better rate than hand ground ones. Declawing is only an issue if you're concerned about selling rather than slaughter.

Ugh, why even disbud and declaw? If your slaughtering for veal fairies, it's gonna be before their skulls seal and major horn growth. Anyone who feels the need to de-poke their fairies due to interflock injuries is keeping them in overcrowded conditions with poor flock management. It is a waste of time, and stresses the farie out, making it harder for them to make weight. And if you do it because you can't take a few nibbles, wear your gauntlets and eye pro like your supposed to. I also don't advocate keeping them as pets. Farm the domestic variety or enjoy them wild, but a faire dies not belong in a home environment.

Nothing proven by proper druidic studies, but plenty of anecdotal evidence that suggests it can cause bogartism or even outbreaks of redcap. Honestly I wouldn't risk it, commercial feed may not be the healthiest but it's got better quality control than homegrown. Use the dust for the industrial purposes it's good at, the meal can go for plant fertilizer if you don't want to waste it.

Remember that teeth are a treat, not a meal.

As an ordained wiccan minister I can safely say that you can feed faeries/fairies honey, milk, bread, and fruit. I am an expert in this.

Do they use your horsedogs for riding on occasion? Edit: I'm also told faeiries enjoy really shiny things, so maybe leave a bowl out for mental stimulation. Just not money.

So, uh, the colony of Children of Nyarlathotep at my daycare (thanks again, DicktheCat!) are reaching maturity far faster than I'd hoped (probably some space-time bending magick shenanigans) and pinky mice aren't cutting it anymore. They want sentient souls but they're so tiny that faeries might do the trick. Is there a good faerie-catcher product I can set next to the hummingbird feeder? I want to feed them a raw diet because I just don't know if ground faerie contains a high enough percentage of soul fragments.

The fairy queens will ignore a few dozen deaths but after that you're looking at trouble.

I can't believe that people still keep fairies as housepets. Not only is it cruel, it's just asking for trouble. I know someone whose cat got at the fairie once. They now have frogs fall out of their mouth every time they speak, because oh, guess what, her mother was the fairie queen. It's just not worth it!

Last I heard you could get your fairies to do just about anything if you give them some pizza.

LITERALLY A BIRD posted:I find nectar and sugar-water work a treat. The only problem is your local hummingbirds might get territorial, so watch out for them. Ugh, you're obviously a fairy fighter. The only people who feed sugar water are purposely trying to attract hummingbirds. Find some other way to supplement your income, you beast. OP, ambrosia is the best fairy food out there. It's keeps their wings strong and helps them produce quality magic. I'm surprised your breeder didn't tell you that... Where did you say you got them? I hope you didn't just buy them at a Familiar Store. The minions that work at those places don't know anything about magical creatures. Last time I was in there to pick up unicorn hoof wax, I saw them keeping chimaeras in the tiniest aquarium I've ever seen.

LappyDore64 posted:Guys, I wanna know, what's the best food to feed your faeries? It's simple. First, you're going to want to go to this site. Find the type of fae you have. Look in the Ecology section, and it should give you information about their diet, as well as any useful material components that you can glean from their corpses. Good luck!

The only proper diet for faeries is naughty human children, and if you don't feed it to them they will just hunt their own.

Faeries are annoying. My chickens regularly kill and eat them and it's a pain to clean up tiny fairy body parts.
