Otem,
Read my guide. There's a section on milking.
Milking is the absolute most lucrative harvestible material we've got.

Lucrative?
say what??
calculate amountharvested * time spent milking /CPU. Go forth and collect hides and sell them at 2 cpu and you make much more money, especially if you got missions for the critters in the first place,
Got milk ?? nope.

I'm a Chef!
Please don't stop milking! You guys are our only supply of a rare commodity!
Think of it this way.
Right now, everyone is complaining that we need mind stims. If we Chefs have enough milk supplied to us, we can make more Blue Milk, and all the combat types will be happy! They will also pay well, which means you get payed well!
Right now, I make about one crate of Blue Milk a week, and it sells out quickly. If I had more milk, I could sell more, and you could make more money!

JB,
There are ways to milk that don't take that long. And when it comes down to it - not only do you get the money, you also get the benefit of the food that the Chefs make.
You will always get more CPU for milk than any other commodity, and you'll also get a much more solid sales base because only Chefs really need it.
If you ain't milking, you're missing out on some serious monkey.

If you can milk a creature, it is like doubling the amount of resources. ALso I have found that when I go on Kaduu missions, i usually can find more kaduu's in the area. Sometimes there are 3-4 Adult Females that I can get about 50 units of milk from.
What is nice about it, is that all it takes is time, and the skills. There is no combat involved unless you want it. I even one time was able to help defend a Kaduu herd from some nearbyaggro creatures. Was able to harvest a Red con creature and have the wildkaduus tank for me, AND get milk. Not to metion eggs from thier lair

Right now I am getting milk for Chiannie a master chef. She is paying 100cpu for 5k stacks of milk. Just so happens that Naboo wild milk is the best at 991dr 557fl 569 pe and 932 oq. Milking fambaas I can over 100 units per creature getting me around 500-600 per mission depending on if babies spawn. With the mission reward I make about 60k per mission and I also get around 700 units of hide as a bonus. Good money in milk if you find the right buyer. BE use milk too and will sometimes pay really well too.

Kinni,
Like any resource, it's based on the stats. Unfortunately for Chefs ALL FOUR stats are important for them.
But an average to very good stack of milk will generally fetch between 100 and 200 CPU on bloodfin.
Mainly because a good Chef can pay for 1 mill worth of milk and turn it into 10 mill worth of food.
