Horses

You can ride on your horse, and participate in the horse race. They're the brown-coloured, and won't let you ride on them unless they're well grown, and have two hearts in its heart meter. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ REQUIREMENTS FOR THE HORSE ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ .1. You will need a barn. You can choose to buy a small barn which holds the four animals, or you can wait until you can afford to buy a large barn which can holds the eight animals. (Or you can buy a small barn, and later upgrade it to a large barn.) The small barn will costs you 3,500g, and 30 lumbers. The large barn will costs you 13,000g, and 80 lumbers. But if you chose to buy a small barn, so upgrade it to the large barn will cost you 10,000g and 80 lumbers. .2. You will need the proper tools so you can take care of your horse. They are: Brush (800g) - So you can brush your horse, and raises its affection. Animal Medicine (800g) - It'd better to keep a medicine for emergancy use, just in case your horse get sick and Blue Sky Ranch is closed. Your horse CAN die from illness, so you need to take care. Reins (free) - After purchasing your first animal, you'll meet Hank later in the barn. He'll give you the reins. You can use the reins to lead your horse out of the barn.\ Fodder (30g per a piece) - Of course you need to feed your horse! You can buy it from Blue Sky Ranch, or you can grow the grass from Spring Farm, and use a sickle to cut them once they reach a full height. .TADA. Once you have proper equipment, plenty of fooder, and has a barn ready. You're now ready to buy a horse! Head to Blue Sky Ranch, and you can make your purchase. The foal will costs you 3,200g. It takes about twenty days for your foal to mature into adult age. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ TAKING CARE OF YOUR HORSE ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You will have to raise your horse to two hearts so you can ride on it once it reaches full maturity. In order to raise its hearts, of course, you have to take very good care of it! BRUSH ----- Use a brush on your horse everyday. Your horse will love it. TALK ------ Talk to your horse everyday. HAND FEED - Hand feed your horse with fodder. The horses love it. You can also leave your horse outside so it can enjoy the sunny days, or at least cloudy days. But I definitely don't recommand that you leave your horse during the rainy days. Otherwise your horse will get sick, and lose some hearts. So I suggest that you keep checking your TV for weather forecasts. If the weathergirl says that there'll be a typhoon or snowstorm next day... (By the way, it means that you are unable to leave your house during the typhoon day, or snowstorm day so your livestock will suffer since no food) But there is a way to avoid this siutation, so if you find out that next day is dark one... Just hand feed your horse, and leave a fodder in the box. So next day, your horse will eat that fodder while you're stuck in your house. You can also use a miracle potion on your horse. Your horse will become pregnant, and give birth to a foal! The horse miracle potion costs 1,200g. --BOOK ABOUT ILLNESSES-- --BOOK ABOUT MIRACLE POTION-- "Animals can catch cold if exposed "Use potions on adult to the rain or snow. cows, sheep and horses. You can cure sick animals In 14 to 16, offspring are born. with a dose of Animal Medicine. Cows do not give milk while pregnant. Make sure you cure them quickly Horses cannot race while pregnant. because sick animals die Pregnant animals cannot be sold." if they are ill too long." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ RIDING AND RACING ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You can't ride your horse while indoors. So use the reins or bell to get your horse out of the barn. Once you're outside, stand next to your horse, and press X button. You will mount your horse. * You can't mount your horse if your horse is too young, or have less than * two hearts. Now you can ride your horse. Now, your horse have two meters. It is the "Heart Meter", and "Stamina Meter". In order to win the race in Spring/Autumn Horse Race, your horse will need a lot stamina. So you need to ride on your horse a lot so your horse will gain more stars (stars are stamina icons in the game). I believe that you have to ride on your horse for 8-10 hours total, in order to gain one star. In-game hours, not real hours! When your horse win the contest, it will become the Champion Horse. You can sell it for 50,000g. Or keep it. It's entirely up to you. Check tips and tricks section for ways to get your horse level up faster.
