Happiness is KEY to Fervor/Heat
I have listened in group chat and have seen some tickets lately that have been about fervor not rising. Your horses/K-9’s fervor will only rise if your horse/k-9 is awake and above 75% happiness. Now there are many ways to increase the happiness of your breedable.
Lets start with Horses: Riding is one of the ways you can increase the happiness just ride your horse some if he or she seems to be unhappy and not gaining happiness ( they have to be age 7 though before you can ride them).
Another way you can raise the happiness is with salt licks, rezzing out a salt lick with your food will make your horses happier. This stat booster gives a 1% increase in happiness over time. One Salt Lick last 2 horses 2 weeks.
Also you have two other consumables at your disposal to help raise the happiness level some.
The first consumable, sugar cubes, when used give your horse a 15% increase to the happiness though you can only give this consumable to them once in a 24 hour period.
The second consumable that effects happiness also effects all the other stats of the horse and that’s the Amaretto Cocktail! This wonderful little concoction is just what your horse wants to feel happy and ready to start producing bundles by raising energy,happiness, and fervor by 5% and decreasing hunger and thirst by 5% ensuring that your horse can stay up late with his favorite mare! Note that again this consumable can only be given once every 24 hours.
Lets talk K-9’s. You can increase the happiness of you K-9 by using your hud and playing with your K-9. Always remember that your K-9 will not start to gain fervor until they are 7.
Another way you can raise the happiness is with a Chew Toy, rezzing out a chew toy with your food will make your K-9’s happier. This stat booster gives a 1% increase in happiness over time. One Amaretto Brand Chew Toy last 2 K-9’s 2 weeks.
Also you have two other consumables at your disposal to help raise the happiness level of your K-9 some.
The first consumable, Rawhide Lollipop, when used gives your K-9 a 15% increase to the happiness though you can only give this consumable to them once in a 24 hour period.
The second consumable that effects happiness also effects all the other stats of the K-9 and that’s the Mega Woof Vitamins! This wonderful little concoction is just what your K-9 wants to feel happy and ready to start producing kennels by raising energy, happiness, and fervor by 5% and decreasing hunger and thirst by 5% ensuring that your K-9 can stay up late with his favorite gal! Note that again this consumable can only be given once every 24 hours.
Happiness does naturally go down while the horse/K-9 is sleeping but will come back up while its awake. Sometimes for whatever reason you may have a stubborn horse/K-9 that doesn’t want to get happy or its fervor go up once its happy ( fervor can only rise once its age 7 ) if this happens just submit a ticket and send that horse/K-9 on in so we can give it a checkup ( re-rezzing sometimes also fixes this ).
I hope this has helped you with why your horses/K-9’s don’t seem to be increasing in fervor at times.
