Horsey Snack Attack!

Its another Manic Monday! Hai, everyone! hope everyone has enjoyed their day today. I was sitting around wondering what I should write about today when I got the suggestion to explain a little something about the horsey snacks!

When should you give you horse a horsey snack? Well I would recommend if you have a horse that is almost sick…… maybe I dunno you maybe left your horse in your inventory and forgot about. (not that I have ever done this LOL)

If you give a horse a snack it will decrease its nourishment by 10%. You can not give a sick horse 10 horsey snacks to make them better. So if the horse is already sick you can not give it horsey snacks!

However, if you had a horse that nourishment was at 98% you could give it multiple horsey snacks to bring nourishment back down to 0% this would prevent it from being sick. You can pick up horse snacks at any Amaretto Ranch Horse location or even in the Horse Haven Vendor!

Remember that you can not give a sick horse horsey snacks!

It may not be a bad idea to swing on down to Amaretto Ranch University and take the Horse Consumable class to keep you up to date on the most effective way to use all the consumables for the horses!

Remember guys to check those event calendars and I will see you at the next Amaretto Event!
This is Ava signing off! Happy breeding everyone!

Let’s Retouch on Consumables

Two of the most important consumables:
Breedable & Pet Food –
Breeder Food is for horses you wish to breed once they reach 7 days old.
Pet Food is to be used when you do not wish to breed your horses. If you decide to breed your horse after feeding it Pet Food, it will take 7 days on Breeder Food for the effects of the Pet Food to wear off.
1. Rez the food/water within your horses set range. (A horse’s default range is 5 meters)
2. Can click the food/water to change options and see remaining %. Options include Owner only, Group only, and All.
Owner only: Will only be consumed by the owners horses.
Group only: Will only be consumed by horses in the same group as the food/water is set to.
All: Any horse within range of the food/water will be able to consume it.
Once the food/water has been completely consumed it will disappear.
In case your horses get hungry
1. Re-rez fixes 99% of the issues.
2. If the land is set to a group, are the horses and food set to that group?
3. If the land isn’t set to a group, are the horse and food set to the same group as each other?
4. Check to see if the horse is set to the type of food out (more stats)
5. Re-set home position.
6. Sometimes giving them a Horsey Snack will help them start to eat so you may also want to try this. Remember your horses only eat once every 43 minutes so you may not notice a change immediately, be patient it takes 3 days for a horse to reach 100% hunger.
Salt Licks:

This stat booster gives a 1% increase in happiness over time. One Salt Lick last 2 horses 2 weeks.
1. Open boxed Salt Lick and rez close to the horses you wish to increase the happiness. For the horses to use the Salt Lick it needs to be within their set range, just as the food and water is.
2. Click the Salt Lick to set options for Owner only, Group only, or All.
Owner only: Will only be consumed by the owners horses.
Group only: Will only be consumed by horses in the same group as the Salt Lick is set to.
All: Any horse within range of the Salt Lick will be able to consume it.
Once the Salt Lick has been completely consumed it will disappear.

Horse Feed!

Ok guys i thought it might be time to revisit this issue as i have seen some chatter about this in the group.

My food is going to fast?!

Well lets talk some facts.
A hungry horse will eat about 2 to 3 times more often then a horse that is not hungry. Let me give you an example of something

If you have 300 horses they will eat 300 foods every 4 weeks.

It is 1 food per horse per 28 days 300 divided by 4 weeks being 28 days is 11 foods a day is what 300 NON hungry horses will eat.

Food is not going any faster then it should be if you are having issues they could be due to sl itself or the horses could be hungry as stated….

This has been tested by Amaretto and others again and again……..

So rest assured that your horses aren’t eating any more than they did weeks ago… i encourage you guys to test this out yourself!

Well hope everyone is having fun gearing up for the upcoming holidays and happy breeding until next time………

Fervor and Heat Builders

I have had a couple of people ask me how can a newborn horse have 15% fervor or a newborn K-9 have 15% heat?

 

Well here’s the answer !

 

For Horses,one Amaretto Cocktail and One Amaretto Passion Pill can add a total of 15% fervor per day! That can add up quick. For K-9’s one Amaretto Brand K-9’s Mega Woof Vitamins and One Amaretto Puppy Love Pill can add a total of 15% heat per day! That can add up quick.

 

When your horse or K-9 reaches age 7 without having any (Passion Pills for horses),(Puppy Love Pills for K-9s) or (Cocktails for horses),(Mega Woof Vitamins for K-9,s) it then has to still reach 100 fervor/heat before it can breed which means it will be that much longer before your new bundle/kennel will be dropped.

 

If your newborn horse/K-9 is given a Passion Pill and a Cocktail (for horses) or Puppy Love Pills and Mega Woof Vitamins for K-9’s) each day from birth, that is 15% of fervor/heat added each day. So by the time the horse/K-9 reaches age 7 it will already be at 100 fervor/heat and will be able to get pregnant right away.

 

Another little known fact is even pregnant horses/k-9’s can be given the Passion Pills and Cocktails/ Puppy Love Pills and Mega Woof Vitamins in order to keep them primed and ready for breeding at all times. So if you have a really nice horse/k-9 that throws really nice offspring that would be a good candidate for you to keep ready to go at all times!
