In the colorful world of LEGO Fortnite Odyssey, farming just got a whole lot livelier with the introduction of adorable farm animals like chickens, cows, sheep, and even pigs. But how do you bring these charming creatures to your village and turn them into valuable resource producers? From building cozy Animal Barns to crafting special Animal Treats, this guide reveals the step-by-step secrets to taming and caring for your new farm friends, transforming your settlement into a bustling, resource-rich homestead. Ready to add some moo, cluck, and oink to your LEGO Fortnite adventure? Let’s dive in!
How to get farm animals
To get farm animals in Lego Fortnite Odyssey, first reach village level 2 to unlock the Animal Barn, which requires 10 planks to build. Once the barn is constructed, craft Animal Treats at the grill using 5 vines and 3 corn. Find wild animals like chickens, cows, sheep, or pigs, then feed them the Animal Treats to tame them. After taming, lead the animals back to your village and assign each to an empty barn by interacting with it. Each barn houses one animal, and your village level determines how many animals you can keep. Remember to feed and care for your animals regularly, or assign a villager as an Animal Caretaker to maintain their happiness and productivity.
To add farm animals to your Lego Fortnite village, you’ll need to do the following:
- Reach village level 2 to unlock the ability to build Animal Houses.
- Place an Animal House (10 planks). After placing the house, you’ll learn how to make Animal Treats.
- Go to your grill and make a bunch of Animal Treats (5 vines and 3 corn).
- After finding wild animals (chickens, cows, pigs, or sheep), feed them the Animal Treat. They will begin to follow you for a short period of time.
- Head back to your village, feeding the animal more treats if they stop following you.
- Interact with the Animal House while the animal is still following you to assign the animal to the house. Each house can only hold one animal, so you’ll need to build multiple if you want a bunch of animals.
With that, the animal of your selection will stick around, so long as you have the space in your village for it. They’ll also sleep during the night in their houses, so you don’t have to worry about skeletons or monsters getting them.
At village level 10, you can have up to seven animals in your village, but they also share resident slots with regular villagers. That being said, you may want to make a second farm village separate from your favorite Fortnite characters if you want to grab a bunch of animals.

What do farm animals do in Lego Fortnite Odyssey?
In Lego Fortnite Odyssey, farm animals play an essential role in your village by producing valuable resources in exchange for food. Once you build an Animal Barn and tame animals like chickens, cows, sheep, and pigs using Animal Treats, these animals will follow you back to your village and be assigned to their barns. Each animal produces specific materials such as feathers, milk, wool, mushrooms, and fertilizer, which contribute to your resource pool. They also interact with the environment and require care, which can be managed by assigning a villager as an Animal Caretaker. At night, animals sleep safely in their barns, protected from monsters, making them both charming companions and useful contributors to your village’s growth and sustainability.
In exchange for housing and food, the animals will produce different resources:
- Chickens: feathers and fertilizer
- Cows: milk and fertilizer
- Sheep: wool and fertilizer
- Pigs: mushrooms and fertilizer
How can farm animals transform my Lego Fortnite village gameplay
Farm animals in LEGO Fortnite Odyssey transform your village gameplay by adding a dynamic new layer of resource production and village management. Once you reach village level 2 and build Animal Barns, you can tame and recruit animals like cows, sheep, chickens, and pigs by feeding them Animal Treats crafted from vines and corn. These animals produce valuable materials-such as milk, wool, feathers, mushrooms, and fertilizer-that help you gather resources more efficiently without constant hunting or gathering.
The presence of animals also increases your village’s population cap, allowing up to ten recruits including villagers and animals, which adds strategic choices in managing your village slots. Caring for animals by feeding them and assigning villagers as caretakers keeps them happy and productive, enhancing your village’s economy and sustainability. Additionally, animals add charm and variety to your village, making the gameplay more engaging and immersive as you build a thriving farm community within the LEGO Fortnite world.
How do farm animals increase resource production in my Lego Fortnite village
Farm animals increase resource production in your LEGO Fortnite village by continuously generating valuable materials over time once they are housed in Animal Barns and properly cared for. Each type of animal produces specific resources:
-
Chickens produce feathers and fertilizer.
-
Cows produce milk and fertilizer.
-
Sheep produce wool and fertilizer.
-
Pigs produce mushrooms and fertilizer.
These resources accumulate passively, supplementing your village’s supply without the need for constant gathering or hunting.
To maximize production, animals must be kept happy through feeding, petting, and interaction, which speeds up their resource output. Assigning villagers to care for the animals also helps maintain their happiness and productivity. Additionally, animals sleep safely in their barns at night, ensuring uninterrupted resource generation.
By integrating farm animals into your village, you create a steady and diversified flow of materials essential for crafting and village development, making resource management more efficient and enriching your gameplay experience.
