To the north is a special containment pen that's larger and more secure than the rest. This is ideal for containing and experimenting on [[Alien|other alien lifeforms]] should the station manage to capture/produce one. Usually though, it's just for storing extra slimes.

==Genocide Now: The Slime Console And You==


Before you start breeding the slimes, make sure you have a fire extinguisher in your backpack or hand and a water-tank ready nearby. Both of which are luckily available right here in Xenobiology!
The Slime Console is a semi-new addition to the Xenobiology scene that makes your job roughly a hundred million times easier. With it you can move slimes, kill them, feed them, and process dead monkeys with mere clicks of a button! If for some reason however you want to do Xenobiology the old-fashioned way the way your pappy taught you, then this guide will still help you.


In addition, you also want a supply of monkeys, available through the monkey-cubes on the table. Simply unwrap them (click on them in your hand), dip in the sink or spray with water, and shove into the disposal tube into the pen.
If you're using the console, I'd strongly advise grabbing the wrench next to the shield projectors and moving the fridge and slime processor within close range of the console you're using as to cut out a lot of unnecessary movement.


There is a wrench by the secure pen, which you may want to use to move the smartfridge, slime processor and monkey processor within reach of the pens. You might also want to drag the watertank and grinder nearby as well.
 
==General Advice on how to Not Get Eaten==
 
Before you start breeding the slimes, make sure you have a fire extinguisher in your backpack. You'll rarely meet a ravenous, hungry slime if you're using the console, but it still happens and having an extinguisher could very well be the difference between a dead slime and a dead ''you''.
 
If you aren't, then this goes doubly so as you'll be near a lot of slimes, usually before you cull their numbers, and while they're normally docile towards you whom are effectively their ''God'', they occasionally grow resentful for their species' exploitation and try to kill you for no particular reason. In that case, kill the blasphemers with a clear conscience, DEUS VULT!
