How often should I brush my animals?
I'm aware you need to brush them to prevent them from getting sick, but now that I am getting a pretty large amount of livestock and brushing them all takes a long time as well as big chunk of my stamina. Can I effectively skip a few days to just brush a few in batches and still prevent them from getting sick?
Best Answer
While brushing your animals everyday is not necessary, not brushing your animals raises Stress and causes them to get dirty, which isn't going to earn you points if you're aiming to enter them in the Livestock Festivals. When animals get too stressed, they stop producing and can get ill and die.
Now you can avoid the effects of Stress by talking to them, letting them outside to graze, and taking them to the Safari. Taking animals to the Safari costs 100G per head of livestock, but it reduces their Stress much more quickly than any other activity.
