Project Zomboid allows players to raise livestock such as chickens and cows to establish a sustainable food source. These animals provide a consistent supply of milk, eggs, and wool, reducing the need for constant scavenging. Server administrators can adjust various settings to control how quickly these animals mature or produce resources, ensuring that farming remains balanced to meet the specific needs of a multiplayer community.
