When you rez your Amaretto Breedables foods and salt/chew toys/orange rinds/gummies, you may have noticed in the menu that it has options for Owner, Group, and All. These settings are so you can share them with others if you want to, or keep them only for animals you own. The default setting when first rezzed is for Owner only, which means only your own breedables can use it. If you want to share your food or salt with others you can set it to Group, then make sure the other animals are rezzed in the same group. Only those animals in that group can use it. Finally, if you set it to All, anyone can rez their animals in range and use your consumables. This might not seem like a good idea, but sometimes very nice people have found a hungry animal and rezzed a food set to All so it doesn’t get sick. If you check the description line on the consumables it will show what setting it is on.
The range you have your breedables set to will determine where you place the consumables. If they are set to movement off it is easy, just rez the food next to them. Their default range is 5 meters. If they are sharing it with others set it in the middle so all can reach it. If movement is on, rez the breedable next to the food and whatever the range is, that’s their home. They can wander around but always have the consumables inside their range. Think of the range as a circle, and home is the center of that circle. Whatever is inside that circle they can reach. This also works with breeding so watch where you rez your breeders, as any overlap of the circles from others means you can get Oops breedings.
Sometimes it may seem like your breedables are not using the consumables. The percentage left will show accurately if you touch the item. If they seem like they aren’t eating, then try rerezzing both the breedable and the consumables. Rerezzing can fix a lot of issues. Remember, it takes 3 days for a horse/dog/bird to get hungry enough to turn sick, 5 days for a Ponie Pal, so if you run out of food don’t panic. You have time to get more. If all else fails and they do get sick, you can feed Amaretto Horses K9s and Barnyard Birds well by setting food out. It takes 3 days for them to eat themselves well, during which time you can’t wake them, or give them snacks or other consumables except a healing kit/vaccination/flu shot. Ponie Pals can’t be fed well however, they will need the Noodle Soup which heals them instantly. Unlike the food and salt, Noodle Soup can only be given to your own Ponies, as you need to be the owner to access the menu.
Now that you are armed with all this information, get out there and have fun! Happy Breeding
