Cattle may also be killed by foxes, so if a fox spawns in your pastureland be ready to protect your herd. [Verify] Also as Kralmir points out Fox don't spawn on pclaims. http://www.havenandhearth.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=22391&p=491837#p491764 (edited out from Cow main page) --Borka (talk) 10:27, 11 September 2014 (EDT)

Milk Quantity

I tried milking my cow every 10 minutes and the milk was not respawning. At the 30 minute mark, still no milk. At the 60 minute mark I got 5.0 L of milk from a q50 milk quantity cow. Something is wrong with the milk quantity formula on this page. I'll do some further testing. ~ Phaen 10:57, 16 June 2012 (EDT)

Meat and Intestine Quality

I've noticed that cow/calf meat/intestine quality is softcapped by the reported quality of food eaten. Should this be mentioned on this page? Can anyone else confirm this is the case for meat/intestine quality?

Milk quality seems to unaffected by quality of food eaten.

Status window

I think that maybe the animal status window can be generalized and be put somewhere else. Possibly on its own page. There, it could be explained what the red and white bars are related to and what attributes are specific to each animal such as though all animals, male and female, have a milk quality, only the milk from a female cow is collectable. I suppose that milk quality on the other animals affects the "growth" of their young (or the young around them) and so the milk quality on the male is mostly just a breeding stat. --Deadguy60 21:14, 23 May 2012 (EDT)

Information Panel - Bars

The bars on the right side of the Information Panel seem to indicate Quality.

In my village we had one cow that stated a q325 for milk but was giving q106. after noting that the right bar stated ~30, I ran some calculations outside of the program and it came to be the exact quality that the milk we were getting was.

using this information, we believe that the left bar(red) indicates meat quality while the right bar(white) indicates Milk quality.

while Milk is not available to be taken from all animals, the young still feed from the females and that is the q of their feed until they mature and are eating "normal" feed.
