Uhh... Cows?

Postby Sevenless » Mon Apr 18, 2011 2:44 pm

I got this offspring from two Q10 fresh tamed parents

It was my impression that cow Q only +/- an average of 2 points per generation. So what's up with these wacky numbers.

Thats a pretty good 2nd gen cow.

The possible change is in the range of -5/+20.

The red bar is the food bar and is regenerated if the cow eats food.
The second bar is how much the cow starved (too much time without food) and will give lower q milk, AFAIK it can't be regenerated.

So if your calf's have full red bars it is safe to milk the mothers, right?

It's always safe to milk the cows, since you can't beat calves to the milk.

Just wondering... what are those two milk qualities? I haven't tamed a cow yet but it doesn't make sense that there's two...
