This is a topic near and dear to my heart for my very first connection. While some breeders may have their own renaming system, and it works for them, not everyone renames their bundles/kennels/nests/baskets when they drop. This can make it very hard for them to find a specific coat or trait when its called for, for those special breedings Amaretto does, or even just a project you want to work on. Its also easier for Amaretto to find lost horses, dogs, birds, or ponies if they’re renamed, and easier for people to remember a name even if they don’t remember what traits or have the uuid. Another positive side to renaming is giving possible customers the ability to search for a bundle by coat or trait at markets.
Notice the one on the left has the coat, eyes, long long, and F for female in the name, while the other says amaretto breedables bundle. Sooooooo many bundles named that on the grid lol, not to mention how it shows in your inventory.
I have my own system, which usually starts with the names of the parents so I can see full siblings at a glance, the coat, eyes, any special traits I might need, and gender. Any system you come up with that you can remember is good, the point is to rename them for easier trait searches in your inventory later on. Also if you always rename before picking them up they don’t pile up on you. It only takes a few minutes to rename , and saves you hours of headache searching for that special bundle when Amaretto announces their coat of the month, for instance. Or when you’re looking for something special to sell.
I also want to urge you all to rename your live animals. It’s so sad to see them running around without their own names, even if its just-Blue Roan boy- for instance. And it also makes them easier to find if they get lost
I hope this helps with naming all those breedable drops, and encourages everyone to RENAME. Have a great weekend
