📋 About This Mod
Now you can actually feed and water your Brahmin instead of wondering how they manage to survive by grazing on air out of an empty bathtub. This mod puts fodder in all new and old feeders including the caravan posts.
I also added a couple signs to the basically boring trading post and thinking of adding more stuff.
And now the much requested option: water in a tub for your cattle to drink.
Notes: You too can drink this water but, yes, it imparts rads. I've yet to figure out how to make the tub solid in the watering trough context. You can walk right through it. Just pretend you can't. Do cattle drink from it? I don't know. I sat around watching Brahmin for a good quarter hour and they obviously weren't thirstry. If you see them drinking, post the news. I'd like to know.
This mod goes nicely immersive with my cattle fart mod (now with a low volume option). Also I have a bathroom fixture retex mod that applies to these tubs as well. And while you're at it why not check out my other mods.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community approval (3,883 endorsements) — clearly a must-have for settlement purists.
- Tackles a real immersion gripe: empty feeders in a world where you're supposed to be feeding Brahmin.
- Adds water troughs, giving you more options for keeping your livestock happy and hydrated.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016 — might have compatibility issues with newer Fallout 4 patches or DLC.
- Purely cosmetic — if you're looking for gameplay mechanics like actual feeding requirements, this isn't it.
For Fallout 4 settlement builders who notice the little details and want their Brahmin pens to look lived-in. Also for roleplayers who hate seeing empty feeders when they've got a farm going. Skip if you want survival mechanics or actual feeding gameplay — this is purely visual.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're using a mod manager like Nexus Mods' Vortex, just download with the manager and it'll handle the install — no manual file placement needed.
- Since the mod is from 2016, check if you have any other mods that alter settlement objects or Brahmin behavior; load order might matter if conflicts arise.
- The water troughs are craftable — look under the 'Resources' or 'Water' category in the settlement build menu.
