How To Use Kibble

Kibble is used just like any other taming item. Taming can be a long process, but overall, you will need to place the kibble into the creature’s inventory, which will cause its taming bar to fill up.

You can also use kibble as normal food for your tames, but it’s important to keep in mind that different creatures have preferred kibble types. Below, you can check out some kibble preferences for each type.
