Slimeology:The only slime rarer than the Golden Slime is the Mimic Slime. Only a few ranchers have ever seen one and only know so much about them when they were found. All that is known is that they love to eat the plorts of other slimes which it will take on the shape, form, and color of the slimes that produce them into a pure form of Largo if enough of the same plorts are eaten.
Rancher Risks:Mimic Slimes are pretty fragile and will disappear if neglected for too long. After it spawns, it must eat enough plorts to become a Pure Largo, otherwise it takes 1 – 2 in-game days before it despawns (feeding it a plort will add 5 in-game hours [5 min.] to this timer anytime it's fed one). If a Mimic Slime eats a specific type of plort but then eats a different one, it will immediately become a Tarr. A Pure Largo will turn into a Tarr if it eats another plort as well (Pure Largos will not eat their own plorts).
Plortonomics:The Mimic Slime will only produce plorts after it has become a Pure Largo of the plort type it has devoured.
Added Note:The Mimic Slime is the only slime that CAN devour the plort of a Golden Slime, which after eating enough, will become a regular capturable Golden Slime that will not run away or despawn unless neglected for long enough. This Golden Slime eats everything (like a regular Pink Slime), however can only be fed once every 2 – 3 in-game days and its favorite food is always different when it gets hungry (producing 2 gold plorts if it eats its favorite at the time). This slime WILL eat other plorts if given the chance, and will become a Tarr as a result.
