Newbie here! Send help!

Ok cool I prefer to play avoiding inbreeding but just wanted to know in case it happens accidentally. Thanks for the help!!

No problem! Have fun, and if you need something you can always ask. Since I'm subscribed to this thread I'll get a notification every time you post. 

Okay two questions. One: why can I have 25 pups if I can only have 5 adults? What happens to them if they become adults but I’m maxed out? 

Second question. How do I get other den expansion materials? I can only find the logs and like one stone. I traded for some but I don’t have a lot of money and so I only bought the cheapest one I could find. I’ve been exploring non stop I’m getting frustrated 

1) The max number of pups is to accommodate the possibility of all of your adult wolves being female and having 5+ puppies in one litter at the same time. If you have more puppies than available adult slots then they will run once they become adults. 

2) There are a lot of explore encounters that drop den crafting materials! Which biome are you exploring? I can help you pinpoint which ones usually drop materials

Oh I also got caves mixed up with den space. I thought creating a cave would give me more slots for adults but I see the upgrade at the bottom which just costs silver pine cones. I’m in the plains btw. 

Oh yes, to get more adult slots you have to upgrade with silver cones (SC). Dens are more for organizing and preventing an illness from spreading!

Ohh okay I didn’t know they kept illness from spreading. So what’s the easiest way to get sc? Selling things I’m sure but idk the value of stuff…and the trade searches seem kinda hard to navigate efficiently to price check 

That is the million dollar question haha. A lot of users have success selling their excess food and amusement items, and I personally find the selling currency is a rather easy way to make SC (however this requires you to already have GC). Explore will give you some SC encounters, and you could always enter the lottery and cross your fingers. Lillemore gives 25 SC for every pup quest you complete as well. The raccoon shop in explore will have a set amount of SC every day that he can give you in exchange for items from your hoard, this is generally easier to do then put them up on the TC. However, you can usually make more on the TC than from the raccoon.

The TC definitely needs some adjustments, but unfortunately it's all we've got for now. You might have to do some math to figure out how to price your items but eventually you'll get the swing of things. 

Okay got it thank you! 

Hello again my friend. I’ve gathered that burying your items is like a vault system to lock themselves way but what does it do? Does it keep food from rotting or anything? Or does it just keep you from like selling/using them
