It's a smart idea, you can play baseball with them. Time your strikes well for those juicy skill points !

Put you Lox in a pit?

Bats are found in the ice caves. Bloody annoying to kill as well.

Annoying to kill? Howso?
Stagbreaker and any later versions of a two-handed hammer with AoE damage take care of them easily.
And even with a sword one by one is no problem (my hammer skill is already at 100 but swords "only" at ~70) ;-)

Yeah, if you venture into an ice cave in the Mountains, by doing so you unlock the bats event that can happen. So your tamed animals become at risk once you enter an ice cave. So make full enclosures over all your tamed animal enclosures and keep them inside. Except for tamed lox, who can shake off the attacks pretty easily.

Losing tamed boars to the bat raids is annoying. Losing chickens, at 1,500 gold each from the merchant, is very painful.

Lol True dat, keeping lox at home is like a wrecking ball bomb with an unknown fuse length

Yeah, you kinda need to build barns now. With barred windows.

You already kinda "needed" barns to protect your animals from Drake raids.
But they didn't needed to be airtight AFAIR.

You should only get bat raids if bats have been killed in that world.
