::::That's correct, if you plant parsnips on day 6 you will be safe from the crows, the problem comes from the next day (7) where if you have +15 seeds growing without any scarecrows then there is a chance that at least one crop will disappear. This information is also described (albeit in less detail) on the page: ''[[Crops#Crows|"Crops #1.2 - Crows"]].''

:::''"seeds themselves (i.e., crops planted that day)"'' — Seeds that have been planted, but not watered, do not advance for the next stage ([[Watering Cans]] and [[Crops#Grow Times]]).

::::As far as I know, any seed at the time of planting, the next day ceases to be a seed and is classified as a growth stage 1 crop, even if it is not irrigated. And also the crows can eat those crops. But I can be wrong 😅 [[File:emojis192.png|24px]]

::::::if I'm wrong then, only the following can apply: "The day after planting, a "crop" is no longer a seed, despite appearances. As the page says "Crows will not eat crops grown from wild seeds, seeds themselves (i.e. crops planted that day)..." 05:10, 21 Mar 2022 (UTC)"

:::::::I tried to research this using the game code, but am having problems with it running, so I tried to research in-game, and went almost an entire season with 335 unwatered parsnip seeds and no crows. My one anecdotal test would seem to indicate that a seed is a seed until it's watered, but further testing is definitely required. I will keep digging, and this is a fascinating question.

::::::::I would like to revisit my original question, and ask it a different way to hopefully be more clear. Suppose I start a new farm. On Spring 1, I plant Lewis's 15 Parsnip seeds and nothing else. They are obviously safe on the night of Spring 1. They are also safe on the night of Spring 2, because there are still fewer than 16 crops planted. Now suppose I plant a single Potato seed on Spring 3. What happens on the night of Spring 3? We all agree that the Potato seed won't be eaten because it was just planted, but are the Parsnips still safe? Does it totally ignore the Potato and not spawn a crow, or does it spawn a crow and just not let the crow eat the potato if it happens to select that space to attack? I think both are reasonable interpretations of, "Crows will not eat (seeds just planted)". [For purposes of this question, assume everything is watered every day. The watering question is an interesting one, but not the one I'm asking.] [[User:Zendowolf|Zendowolf]] ([[User talk:Zendowolf|talk]]) 18:09, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
:::::::::Your potato and all the parsnips are at risk of being eaten by crows on the night of Spring 3/morning of Spring 4 (for the purposes of this question, night and morning are the same thing). The parsnip seeds (and the potato) are safe on Spring 3, because crows only happen overnight. Does that help? [[User:Margotbean|margotbean]] ([[User talk:Margotbean|talk]]) 18:30, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
=== Pregnancy ===
My animals refuse to give birth, though for my knowledge all prerequisites are met I've been trying for more than an in-game-year now. I've stumbled upon a comment that says your barn-doors need to be closed for the event to happen. I'll try this out eventually - hope someone can confirm (before I get to it).

:Barn doors have no effect on animal births, it's just random luck. [[User:Margotbean|margotbean]] ([[User talk:Margotbean|talk]]) 17:17, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
=== Split page? ===
Anyone in favor of creating a new page for each different kind of animal (pet, horse, farm animal, environment animals, etc.)? This page is already quite lengthy, especially considering 1.6 additions to pets. Different kinds of animals are unrelated in terms of game mechanics anyway. [[User:Ifp|Ifp]] ([[User talk:Ifp|talk]]) 19:00, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
:I agree that those types of animals all serve different functions within the game, so that they're different topics. I also agree that we now have a sufficient number of animals to dedicate one article to each. Good idea. [[User:Giles|Giles]] ([[User talk:Giles|talk]]) 19:43, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
::Okay. I'll wait a bit longer to see if anyone else has anything to say. For now I'm thinking we retain this page but with a shortened summary in place of each section and create new articles at least for pet (cat/dog/turtle), horse, and barn animals (keeping them together since they share mechanics).

:::No changes until we have a volunteer to change all 12 languages. [[User:Margotbean|margotbean]] ([[User talk:Margotbean|talk]]) 17:59, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
::::Fair enough, especially right now. But I always wonder if there is anyone who can make changes to all languages. I don't mention you because you have enough projects as it is. [[User:Giles|Giles]] ([[User talk:Giles|talk]]) 20:32, 22 March 2024 (UTC)
:::::I was thinking (Once we have volunteers) 1 page for pets (Cat, Dog Turtle) and 1 page for other farm animals (chicken, Pig, Dino, etc.) [[User:ItsMe101|ItsMe101]] ([[User talk:ItsMe101|talk]]) 12:35, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
