The Sow Head is the severed head of an adult female pig. It comes from butchering a sow carcass.

Its use is the Slice Animal Head recipe, which turns it into a Pig Skull. The head is a by-product of raising pigs for meat, so it shows up in any farm that keeps sows.

Both breeds give one when butchered. The Landrace sow gives a pink head, and the Large Black sow gives a black one. The two look different and work the same. The Rancher is the best occupation for animal parts. It starts with the most Butchering skill. The Chef and the Fishing Guide also start with some Butchering skill.

Uses

---

Slice Animal Head is the recipe for it. The head goes in and a Pig Skull comes out. No station or skill is needed.

The head spoils within a week. Slicing it while fresh turns it into a skull before it rots.

• Slicing the head soon after butchering keeps the skull from going to waste.
• The pink and black heads come from the two pig breeds.
