Thanks for that. That would explain it, though as far as I know there's nothing in the game that says this (or at least nowhere that I've noticed).

do you see Meal Lice?

...that's actually brilliant.  Replace that middle Ladder with a Tile to fit a Grooming Station, and continue the Ladder on the right edge so Dupes can fertalize the Farm Tiles from below, and you're set.

You're right, I didn't spot that before. Until now my brain has filtered out the bit after "Meal" as it's never been necessary to differentiate between the two.

I have some suggestions to improve the design further.

1. Replacing the ladder with a tile enables the farm patch to be expanded to accommodate 8 mealwoods, while maintaining 96 room size.

2. Continue the ladder all the way down. The access can be from below, via a horizontal door, given the room is filed with hydrogen anyhow. It also enables the room to be filed with hydrogen with ease, as the hydrogen will push the other gasses through the door

Are you sure that they are starving because they dont eat balm lily at all? In my observation there are still some pathfinding bugs with dreckos, where they will only try out one plant (if any) even when there are several eatable plants around. (i am assuming you are only farming glossy dreckos, so you can disregard the egg chance bonus from mealwood)

I also noticed that mine only eat from the far right plant and only when they are on the wall XD

Turn them upside down.

Can someone explain exact calculation of the drecko diet? If it says 2kg of mealwood while the mealwood itself is 2kg as per tooltip, does it mean i can feed one drecko with one mealwood only per day?

normal drecko 2 plants, plastic drecko 3 plants

every plant grows 1kcal per day

That's the result, I asked for calculation. And drecko diet is in kg not kcal 

[Kabrute]

i'm wrong about plant growth anyway

hmmm not having a temp issue at 24c. overcrowding is handled by the 4 rooms 2 of them on auto wrangle at 6 critters no feeding anomalies either

 

it used to be a green house for the mealworm farm had no reason to play with my base cooling when i changed it over still dont really

and alllllll my plastic came from the dreckos lucky me first egg drop was plastic
