Slimeology: These uncommon, messy little slimes are not seen by most ranchers as they tend to stay underground for most of their time. Mud slimes thrive underground, eating various types of vegetables and minerals. While sometimes hard to find mud slimes will occasionally appear on the surface in mud puddles, almost exclusively at night time, or they can be seen briefly when scavenging for veggies on the surface.
Rancher Risks: Mud slimes can easily burrow and escape a rancher if they are left unitended, often stealing all nearby veggies in the process, so they must be kept in special containment areas where they do not have access to solid ground, traditionally with the Reinforced Flooring upgrade.
Mud slimes can also pollute any type water supply they come in contact with, turning it into a thick muddy substance. Any puddle slimes or plorts that come in contact with this mud will quickly change and become a mud slime or plort.
Plortonomics: Mud Plorts can be refined to create a special type of mineral rich soil which science still cannot explain is made of, but whatever is inside these plorts is perfect for almost any type of crop or plant you could imagine, making it a fantastic fertilizer to be used in all types of farming or plant care. This rich soil is also sought after as a type of luxurious beauty product in mud baths and face masks which is said to rejuvenate even the driest skin and having the ability completely remove wrinkles! Its the best kind of mud a beauty spa could ask for!
