==Slime Eggs==
 +
Building a Slime Hutch unlocks the ability for slimes to occasionally drop [[Slime Egg]]s. These can be used in the Slime Hutch to hatch into Slimes. There are currently 5 kinds of [[Slime Egg]]s which will hatch into their respective slime colors/patterns: green, blue, red, purple, and tiger.
 +
 
 +
Eggs can also be generated for the hutch by using 100 [[Slime]] in a [[Slime Egg-Press]]. While 4 colors can be obtained this way (excluding Tiger Slime eggs), green eggs have a much greater chance of being produced.
 +
 
 +
Slimes will not drop slime eggs until a Slime Hutch has been built by [[Robin]].  However, they will continue to occasionally drop slime eggs even if the Slime Hutch has been demolished.
    
==Mating==
 
==Mating==
Sometimes, a Female slime might mate with a Male slime (which have the round antenna). If both slimes show a heart, they will create a baby slime (same HP as the parents, half the size). One might have a heart and the other an exclamation mark, which means the latter refused the advances of the former.<br>

===Mating Color Results===
 +
The game generates a random pick from the following table. Each of the red, green, and blue color components of the slime is calculated independently of the other colors using the values from the parent Slimes. The most likely pick has a random chance of two outcomes per color component, also calculated independently of the other components. <ref name="matingcolor" />

==Notes==
 +
*[[Slime Ball]]s will not spawn on [[Crafting#Decor|crafted flooring]].
 +
*Placing a [[Wicked Statue]] inside the slime hutch prevents the Witch from cursing it.
 +
*The interior is 16*8 (128 tiles), with 7 occupied tiles on the inside, and 1 blocked tile under the existing incubator that cannot be used to place items, leaving 120 tiles of usable space remaining. This leaves around 13*8 (104 tiles) of space to use for other purposes (kegs, preserves jars, etc.) while still being able to effectively house (and water) 20 slimes.
 +
<!-- This needs a code reference, it was taken from the Animals page, who knows what game version:
 +
*Once a hutch has more than 5 Slimes, there is a 3.5% chance per night per slime to escape and disappear.-->
 +
 +
==Safe Farm for Slime Hutch==
 +
Three useful items can be placed inside the hutch: Pathway blockers, sprinklers, and crafted flooring. First, arranging [[Crafting#Fences|fences]], statues, or other pathway blockers will isolate the Slimes, making the building safer to enter. The trapped Slimes will still be able to reproduce, and their offspring will also be in isolation; this also applies to the [[Slime Incubator]]. Slimes do not physically need to reach the water source, so enclosing them anywhere will do. Note that fencing will still decay as usual. Second, [[Crafting#Sprinklers|sprinklers]] can be used to automatically water troughs. Sprinklers inside the Slime Hutch work on any farm, including the [[Farm Maps#Beach|Beach Farm]]. Third, [[Slime Ball]]s cannot spawn on top of [[Crafting#Decor|crafted flooring]], so it can be used to choose where Slime Balls spawn.

==Bugs==
 +
*Loading a standard save file will prevent slimes in the hutch from breeding until the next morning. Additionally, any troughs that were still filled from the previous day will now be empty and must be refilled (slime ball production for that day is not affected as this happens while you sleep).
   −
[[File:Slimehutchinterior1.png|475px|thumb|left|Slime Hutch Interior]]
+
*On mobile versions of the game, loading a middle-of-the-day [[Mobile Saves|save]] file (either an Emergency Save or a Backup Save), causes all water troughs to be prematurely emptied. Therefore, [[Slime Ball]]s will never spawn the following morning. To reliably produce Slime Balls on mobile versions of the game, it is best to fill water troughs at the end of the day, shortly before going to sleep.
