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 over 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 will 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 or automatically with a sprinkler.  If watered, they will produce [[Slime Ball]]s the next day.
