Description

A trough is a basic block for feeding and watering your animals. It is necessary for larger animals, as they can consume whole blocks of grass and water, which if a lot of animals are feeding in a small area can lead to a shortage. It can be automated with pipes and hoppers, and takes up two blocks of space.
