Most of us have our different animal pens grouped together, yes...??? When you baconate your pigs, milk your cows or goats, or de-egg your chickens, then go to feed them, do you always miss one out...??? Nearly every single time I miss one or two of something, especially if one animal is tucked underneath another one... The pigs especially... It's not troublesome or a nuisance, I just wondered if anyone else was the same...???
John.
Ah yes, that used to happen a lot with my chickens. Now I am so sad that I see how much food I have left before starting to feed and then keep going over the animals until the right number has been deducted!!! Lol!
Well for me, I make sure that all my chicken, cows, pigs, and sheep and goats are fed. So No I never missed one.:cool: However, when it comes to pets, then there are few occasions when I forget to wake one up, or forget to feed one.
Edit: plus I only make 18, 15, 15, 15, 12 for my chicken, cows, pigs, sheep and goats respectively.
I've just been swiping the entire pen area until I'm sure I've got them all--kind of like erasing a chalk board...keep swiping the enter pen, lol. The only time I miss one is when I've run out of feed.
Yes, I've had the same thing happen. :p Now when I go to feed them I check twice to make sure I didn't miss one.
That's what I do. I wish they had a "pick all" and "feed all" button--my fingertips are wearing out!Quote:

I used to have that problem with the chickens...darn clucks don't want to get up after laying their eggs. Now I have found that if I "excite" them (tap on their pen until they start flying) they are much easier to feed and I don't have to circle over their pens for 5 minutes waiting for them to wake up and eat. Try it!
With me its those pesky chickens, usually one hiding, but i do count the feed so know if one has been missed and go over again.🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐔🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓🐓
I try the count feed , scour pen, zoom in, erasing board tactics and I still sometimes miss one too.. Poor single hungry animal.
I support the feed all button idea. That would make it so much easier.
Hi John, My farm is very low key and more of a smallholding really. Most of the animal pens are half hidden in amongst the trees which makes things even more difficult. I do have to take extra care when feeding and usually resort to counting the food as a check. But here's the weird bit, (after which you will probably come after me with a net). My sheep, (they are my favourites), are in their pen in the front left hand corner of my farm in amongst all the trees. The trees only cover half of the pen but the sheep continually hide under the trees, only peering out occasionally. This makes it very hard to feed them.
Likewise, I find it strange that when ever I go to attend my ice cream maker which is near the gateway to the horses field, the horses immediately come over to see what I'm doing. They are so predictable I rather wish I had some virtual Murray mints (horses love those) to give them! Is it time to give up playing do you think?
The corners. The little bastages hide in the corners :DQuote:

Good to know that I'm not the onlyone! Sometimes one of my cows or chickens stays hungry. They hide in corners or are under other cows who are allready fed. I have to count feed and animals to make sure everyone is fed.

For animals, I just swipe around the pen like 10 times, see them all running, move along.
oh my. They look funny without their clothes. I started after the birthday party and stayed because I love the clothes.Quote:
