Slime Rancher 2 features a wide variety of slimes in its expansive world. These creatures produce Plorts, a special resource in the game that you can sell for Newbucks or use to craft various items at the Fabricator. While wild Slimes consume food and produce Plorts on their own, you'll have to feed them yourself if you plan on taming them at your ranch. Furthermore, Slimes produce two Plorts when you provide them with their favorite food. Here's a guide listing all types of slime and their favorite food in Slime Rancher 2.
