Best money makers are pigs hands down generating truffles worth 1250g each at iridium quality, and even more when processed into oil with artisan. Get yourself a deluxe barn ready before investing 16k per pig since they need outdoor access and dont work in winter or rain.

For reliable daily income focus on ostriches and golden chickens. Ostriches lay weekly eggs that convert to 10 mayo jars totaling 5320g with artisan, while golden chickens drop 1000g eggs daily but youll need 100% perfection first.

Cows and goats make solid starter choices, with cow cheese hitting 1120g and goat cheese reaching 828g at iridium quality. Sheep wool every 3 days processes into 1128g cloth which isnt bad either. Just remember goats produce every other day so plan accordingly.

Tip: grab an auto-grabber and auto-petter when possible, makes life way easier. Also keep an eye out for those new golden animal crackers in 1.6, doubles the output of everything except pigs making ostriches and golden chickens even more worthwhile. Dinosaurs might seem cool but their weekly mayo at 800g falls pretty short compared to other options especially since you can get way more from regular chickens in the same time frame.
