Animals that live in barns and coops have a friendship rating that can be seen by right-clicking the animal after petting (while holding hay, you can not open this window which can be useful if you accidentally open it a lot). The rating is out of 5 hearts, is shown in half-heart increments, and is taken into account when deciding how likely that animal is to produce higher-quality products if that animal is capable of producing them in the first place.

Each half-heart is equivalent to 100 points of friendship, making the maximum value of Friendship 1000.

===Food===
Farm animals who live in barns and coops need to eat every day, one "portion" per animal. They can eat either fresh [[grass]] (if allowed outside) or hay (if kept inside or are unable to find grass). They do not die if not fed, but become upset and cease production of animal products until feeding resumes. They do not need to be fed on a festival day. The game automatically considers them fed, even though no hay or grass is consumed.

Newly hatched, born, or purchased animals do not need to be fed on the day they arrive on the farm, but baby animals thereafter need to eat one "portion" (the same as adults) each day. If they don't have food, they do not grow on that day.

Farm animals prefer fresh grass to hay, and become "very happy today!" (the best [[#Mood|mood]]) upon eating fresh grass. They will not go out in [[winter]], or when it is rainy, stormy, or snowy. Animals that remain inside or do not find grass to eat, eat hay instead, if it is available. Given that growing animal food is nearly impossible in Winter (all Grass and Wheat on the Farm disappears on [[Winter]] 1), it is advisable to prepare by harvesting as much Hay as possible in Fall.
    
Slimes in a [[Slime Hutch]] need no food, but their troughs can be filled daily with water from the watering can.  If watered, they will produce [[Slime Ball]]s the next day.

====Silos, Hoppers, and Feeding Benches====
+
===Animals Trapped Outside===
[[File:Chickens_fed.png|300px]]
+
Animals that do go outside normally return to their buildings by 6pm, to sleep. Closing the barn doors again in the evening prevents them from leaving immediately in the morning to eat grass, before you have time to pet and tend them the next day. If you close the door before all the animals have returned, the ones left out over night are vulnerable to wild animal attacks.
 
  −
Hay can be purchased from [[Marnie's Ranch]] for {{price|50}} per piece. Three Hay can also be purchased from the [[Desert Trader]] on [[Days of the Week#Monday|Mondays]] in exchange for 1 [[Omni Geode]]. Place the hay in your [[inventory]] onto the [[Feeding Bench]] in a Coop or Barn to make it available as food for your animals.
  −
 
  −
To save the expense of buying hay, you must build at least one [[silo]] (eventually, it is common to have three or more). Each silo stores up to 240 pieces of hay, and can be filled by using a [[scythe]] on grass outside (50% chance of hay from each grass unit cut). If your silos are your storage account for hay, then the [[Hay Hopper]]s in the farm buildings are the hay ATMs, where you can withdraw hay into your [[inventory]] or deposit it into storage. The hopper will give you the exact amount of hay needed to fill the feeding bench for one day for the building you are in.  The [[Coop|Deluxe Coop]] and [[Barn|Deluxe Barn]] withdraw and distribute hay to the Feeding Benches automatically.
  −
 
  −
Should you wish to have fewer silos, you can pull hay from the hopper and store it in chests.  To do so you must have a coop or barn that does not have a full feeding bench and then you can pull multiple times from the hopper, provided you do not have the hay equipped.  This becomes impossible if all of your coops and/or barns have been completely upgraded to deluxe as the feeding benches are always full thus you cannot withdraw hay from the hopper.

It can be placed in the shipping bin but yields 0g.
  −
 
  −
In the winter, snow covers the grass completely, making grazing impossible. Therefore, it is advisable to use the scythe to cut some or all of the grass into hay before the end of the fall season to ensure enough reserve hay to feed your animals through the winter. It is generally considered a good practice to build a silo and begin storing hay even before building your first coop or barn.

  −
Hay can also be made into a Grass Skirt when tailored with Cloth at the sewing machine located inside [[2 Willow Lane|Emily and Haley's house]].

====Tending to Feeding====
  −
Farm animals prefer fresh grass to hay, and become "very happy today!" (the best mood) upon eating fresh grass. They will not go out in winter, or when it is rainy, stormy, or snowy. Animals that remain inside or do not find grass to eat, eat hay instead, if it is available.
  −
 
  −
Animals that do go outside normally return to their buildings by 6pm, to sleep. Closing the gates again in the evening prevents them from leaving immediately in the morning to eat grass, before you have time to pet and tend them the next day. If you close the gate before all the animals have returned, the ones left out over night are vulnerable to wild animal attacks. If they are not eaten, they become unhappy from being exposed to danger.
     −
====Tailoring====
+
The exact conditions that cause an animal to be trapped outside are not clear.  It may be more likely for an animal to be trapped outside if the player does not leave the farm after 5pm (when animals begin to return to the barn/coop) and does not enter the barn/coop after 5pm.  (Leaving the farm and entering the barn/coop after 5pm both seem to cause animals to transport or spawn to the inside of the barn/coop automatically).  It may also be more likely to happen if the player goes to bed before 5pm.   
Hay is used in the spool of the [[2 Willow Lane#Sewing Machine|Sewing Machine]] to create the [[Tailoring#Pants|Grass Skirt]]. [[File:Grass Skirt.png|36px]]

===Animals Trapped Outside===
  −
An animal may be trapped outside a barn or coop if the doors are closed at night.  The conditions that cause an animal to be trapped outside are not clear.  It may be more likely for an animal to be trapped outside if the player does not leave the farm after 5pm (when animals begin to return to the barn/coop) and does not enter the barn/coop after 5pm.  (Leaving the farm and entering the barn/coop after 5pm both seem to cause animals to transport or spawn to the inside of the barn/coop automatically).  It may also be more likely to happen if the player goes to bed before 5pm.   
      
If it rains the next day, and the animal was left out, the animal will stay outside in the rain. This is the only instance in which a farm animal will be outside during the rain.  Similarly, if an animal is trapped outside on the night of [[Fall]] 28, the animal will stay outside on [[Winter]] 1.

If an animal has been trapped outside (see previous section) with the barn or coop doors closed, there is a chance they will be attacked by a wild animal during the night.

If an animal has been trapped outside (see [[#Animals Trapped Outside|previous section]]) with the barn or coop doors closed, there is a chance they will be attacked by a wild animal during the night.
    
After the player goes to sleep, any events that will happen during the night (such as Bundle events) are calculated as normal. If no events are due to occur, there will be a 50% chance that the game will attempt to start a wild animal attack event. If this event proceeds, the game will go through all buildings to find a barn or coop that has their doors '''closed''' and has animals left outside.
