Yeah I've found that my cow didn't eat for ~2 days, then ate like 30 units of food.

Ditto, can confirm. Woke up and found trough empty. Put it 120 units of food. Shall check to see if hes eating later or big chunks at once.

Does anyone know how to tell if a sheep is ready for combat? Been over 24 hours and no change in stance.

When in doubt try to use a rope on it. If you get "is trashing wildly" then it's ready for combat. If your character walks towards it then it's not ready for combat

I'm having issues when I go to fight cows in taming process. My char like glitches out while running into it (when I go to attack it w punch). It makes the camera go crazy and its super hard to fight... I'm sure its been brought up but its super annoying just saying.
Ohhh that's how I make a sig, cool

Please Help,

I did a tame on an auroch, and the thing will not tether my rope so I can re hitch it. It wont take a clover either, it keeps saying "thrashing wildly".

How can I re tether to post?

By "I did a tame on an auroch" do you mean that it was ready for a fight, you fought it, it yielded, combat ended and yellow number appeared over the animal?

If the animal wasn't ready for a fight and you attacked it then it might explain it.

Yes it was ready for combat, it was in stance. it yielded a yellow 16 after knocking me out. After I got up I tried to tether it but nothing is working... :(

So the combat ended with you being knocked out, not with you defeating it...

If so then the only bug I see here is with the yellow number appearing
