Breeding Pod
Breeding Pods gestate new 
Iron Teeth 
Kits. Breeding Pods take 5 days to produce a new kit, if constantly supplied with nutrients. The nutrients are 
Water and 
Blueberries. Unemployed 
Beavers, 
Haulers, or working Beavers outside of Working hours supply these nutrients.
Once you have 
Metal and 
Extract, you can upgrade to the Advanced Breeding Pods to spawn adults instead of kits.
Breeding Halted
Breeding Pods halt when lacking adequate nutrients, producing a status message of 
Breeding halted.
Population Control
Each breeding pod can support k beavers based on the lifespan of each beaver, which depends on their well-being, according to the following formula:
Use the following lookup table for reference:
| Average Well-Being | Average Beavers per Pod |
|---|---|
| 1-6 | 10 |
| 7-16 | 12 |
| 17-26 | 14 |
| 27-36 | 16 |
| 37-46 | 18 |
| 47-56 | 20 |
| 57-66 | 21 |
| 67+ | 22 |
Unlike with Advanced Breeding Pods, Beavers are born as kits and must mature before working.
Strategies
- Increasing Well-being increases the size of an Ironteeth colony without adding more breeding pods. This can unexpectedly increase food and water consumption and potentially lead to starvation.
- For a small optimization, ensure that new beavers are born right after daybreak to maximize their effective lifespan. This is because age increments by one at daybreak rather than tracking the time of birth for each Beaver. Manipulate birthing time by selectively pausing and unpausing Breeding Pods.
