Taming Results
Check the taming results to see how long it takes to tame the Turkey, what effectiveness you'll achieve, and how many bonus levels it gains. Better food means better results.
Required Narcotics
Below are the narcotic requirements for keeping the Turkey sedated throughout taming. Narcotics provide 40 Torpor each and are the standard choice. Bio Toxin offers 80 Torpor but is harder to farm. Narcoberries at 7.5 each are a last resort. The Turkey bleeds 0.1 Torpor/s, so keep a close eye on the bar and sedate early.
Starve & Torpor Timers
Use the torpor and starve timers to track your Turkey tame in real time. Torpor monitoring prevents premature wakeups. The starve timer is for the starve-tame method - let Food drop, then load all kibble at once to avoid waste.
