    I had a field full of breeding pastures (main farm) that I just started a few minutes ago with less than 10 pastures ready to harvest. I harvested those pastures but now all pastures are empty! Where did the animals and PF go? It does not appear they were returned to stock.

    Thank you,

    Hello BillyWhiskers, :(

    Could you please confirm if you had only cows breeding in the last round ? Your latest registered breeding processes were all pastures with 4 cows in them. ​

    Hi teddy,
    The missing breeding pastures were mostly rabbits with either cows or pigs but I think the pigs were on on a different field.

    I've checked your breeding log and for every set of animals put in, at least one higher level animal came out. If you saw empty breeding pastures, the breedings probably didn't 'take', which means no animals or powerfeed were taken from your inventory. To make sure alll your breedings 'take', it's a good idea to refresh your screen before leaving the field.

    Can we help you with anything else?

    I never left the field-- it was full of pastures with less than 10 ready to harvest. I harvested those pens but then all the pastures were empty. The pens had started their countdown. As I understand it, it is possible when using the machinery to seed a farm that it is too fast for the system to register it but as we have to do each breeding pasture individually (click on it, select 4 animals, and then confirm its start by clicking PF), it is a very slow process that takes more than a minute or two for the whole field rather than just seconds. How can a whole field not take?

    The partial harvest was due because that was all the pheromones I had. I have the twin rune open and wanted to see if I were to get results similar to Baby boom before I considered whether to purchase any more on the market.

    In order to be certain the animals and PF are not lost, would you confirm how much PF I had to start with? Currently, I have 262 remaining. I just don't remember and I did not think to write it down before I started.

    Hello puppiesnponies, :oops:

    Checking your power feed logs, there are over 100 entries for breeding processes yesterday, all taken - none of them reversed, so all the breedings were successful. I am afraid I have to ask you to contact Support in this case, and they will can provide you the complete power feed log, the complete breeding log. What cannot be checked is the "before" breeding stock.
    Is there anything else we can assist you with?

    I did not think I had over 100 breedings yesterday but if you are seeing them all 'take' successfully then nothing should be missing. Thanks for checking...no further questions.

    As mentioned earlier, I didn't want you to remain with the doubt, so here is the summary of your breeding fun :) :

    You had 457 power feed units on 28th of September 2014.
    On the 3rd of October you got 2 units from the mill, total: 459;
    On the 6th of October you won 2 units on the Wheel, total: 461;​

    So you started the breeding session with 461 units of power feed. ​

    You had 96 breeding processes on the 6th of October, and 4 on the 7th, meaning exactly 100 processes, requiring 200 units of feed. ​

    461 (total before breeding) - 200 (used) = 261 units of PF, to which 3 more were added, from the Mill, today - which is correct indeed, you have 264 PF at the moment. ​

    The animals used for breeding:
    8 + 6 + 8 + 10 breeding pastures with 4 x Rabbits = 32 processes with 128 rabbits involved
    13 + 16 + 2 breeding pastures with 4 x Cows = 31 processes with 124 cows involved
    20 + 11 + 4 + 2 breeding pastures with 4 x Pigs = 37 processes with 148 pigs involved
    ---------------------------
    A total of 100 breeding processes indeed!​

    The results:
    32 Rabbits Motels: 29 Cocoa, 2 Cuddles, 1 Trixx, 24 Rabbits
    31 Cows Motels: 31 Brown, 2 Alpine, 28 Cows
    37 Pigs Motels: 33 Brown, 5 Wooly, 32 Pigs​

    If you look at the results, there is at least one coloured animal for each process, so nothing is missing, the numbers all added up.

    You have also bought some animals, and I will be happy to track those as well if you need more details :)
    Is there anything else I can assist you with?

    teddy,
    Thank you for doing such detailed research and posting the results! It was above and beyond the call of duty! I still don't know what happened with the breeding pastures but I am glad nothing is missing. I am sorry for the delay in posting back to you, but we just now got power back on after severe storms and tornadoes. I am sorry that I logged out of BillyWhiskers -- I forgot to answer from that farm. I am a little scatterbrained right now (more so than usual) and I am at a loss of what to say for all the work you have done. Thank you for chasing all those silly critters down for me.

    Nothing further...leaves big basket of goodies for you.

    On behalf of teddy, you're welcome. Stay warm indoors during the storms.

    Closing thread.
