Animal Feed Harvest Moon Light of Hope

This page is part of the Harvest Moon: Light of Hope Guide. Here I will talk about all things related to animals in HM: LoH.

I've often received a lot of questions regarding how to get this and that animal, and how to quickly increase their affection. Hence, I made this article especially for you who have a problem with anything related to animals.

How to Get Dog, Horse, and Other Animals in Harvest Moon: Light of Hope

The first thing you should do is repair the bridge located on the bottom right corner of the mountain area after getting a hammer. There you will find a house (Sofia's Livestock) and you need to repair it.

After you repair Sofia's house, there will be a cutscene on the next day. Sofia, Gabriel, Michael, and their dog, Max will visit their house. They need a day to settle and ready to open the business.

The next day, there will be an event going on where Gabriel and Max will talk a little about raising animals. After this scene, you can buy animals on Sofia's Livestock.

To buy animals, you also need to repair the chicken coop and animal barn on your farm. When you buy an animal, Sofia will explain the basics of raising animals and giving you tools to take care of livestock, e.g Brush, Pitchfork, Milker, and Clipper.

The Animals sold by Sofia's Livestock:

• Chicken, Price: 3000 G, Product: Egg
• Cow, Price: 7000 G, Product: Milk
• Sheep, Price: 10000 G, Product: Wool
• Poitou Donkey, Price: 20000 G, Product: Donkey fur
• Dog, Price: 7000 G
• Horse, Price: 20000 G
• Cotton Sheep, Price: 30000 G, Product: Cotton Candy Wool
• Silky Donkey, Price: 60000 G, Product: Silky Fur
• Brown Chicken, Price: 6000 G, Product: Candy Egg
• Brown Cow, Price: 20000 G, Product: Chocolate Milk

You will buy all the animals above in infant condition, except the horse. So it takes several days to make them grow up and eventually produce a product (if they can).

Days to Grow up:

• Chicken: 8 days
• Cow: 15 days
• Sheep: 12 days
• Donkey: 30 days

Don't be surprised if Dog and Horse are not on the list of animals sold by Sofia because it was originally like that.

The dog will be unlocked if you have placed the third Stone Tablet and unlock the Beach area, while the Horse will be available in the Summer (if I'm not mistaken).

Note: Candy Animals (Cotton Sheep, Silky Donkey, Brown Cow, Brown Chicken) will be available after you've complete the main story.

So, the short steps you should do to have animals are:

1. Repair the bridge in the mountain

Materials: Softwood Lumber 5x, Stone 2x
Cost: 600 G

2. Repair Sofia's Livestock

Materials: Softwood Lumber 3x, Stone 10x
Cost: 300 G

3. Repair the Animal Barn

Materials: Softwood Lumber 30x, Material Stone 10x
Cost: 1500 G

4. Repair the Chicken coop

Materials: Softwood Lumber 20x, Material Stone 7x
Cost: 1000 G

5. Buy animals you want to keep

How to Get Bobcat in Harvest Moon: Light of Hope

Bobcat is the only animal you can't buy at Sofia Livestock. But you can get it if you've upgraded your house for the first time on Doc's architect.

You need 85000 G and some materials like Hardwood Lumber 50x, Mithril 5x, and Glass 10x for upgrading to a large house.

Next, you have to come to the mountain to petting Bobcat every day and be friends with him. If you've done that enough, you can pick him up as your pet.

How to Quickly Increase Animal Affection in Harvest Moon: Light of Hope

If you want to get better quality animal products, such as Great Wool, Great Egg, Ultimate Wool, Miracle Egg, etc., surely you have to increase your animal's affection (music notes).

I don't know if the trick of increase animal affection quickly in HM: SoM can be used in this game or not, because I haven't tried it myself. Hence, we would use the natural way.

You have to feed, pet, and brush your animal if they dirty every day. Keep in mind that you can't brush your animals if they are not dirty. In addition, the barn or coop should be clean from animal waste.

Grow a lot of grass and bring your animals outside for grazing on sunny days. Then enter them back to the barn in the evening. Don't leave them outside if you don't want your animals sick.

The animal foods you give are also very influential to increase the animal notes, giving Delicious Animals Feed will certainly increase their love faster than Great Animals Feed.

If you want to see the condition of your animal, just click a notebook located near the door of the barn. From there you can see the number of notes, whether your animal is hungry, dirty, or sick.

How to Get Delicious Animal Feed in Harvest Moon: Light of Hope

You could buy animal feed in Sofia's Livestock. But you could also make your own with better quality via the Windmill located next to the Animal Barn or Mountaintop.

But you have to repair the Windmill first to make it work again. You need Softwood Lumber 20x, Iron 2x, and 1000 G of money to repair it.

Later there will be a quest where you are required to make a Delicious Animal Feed (Talk Gabriel to get the recipe) to find and attract the attention of Bluebird which is the embodiment of Harvest Goddess.

After that, you can make a Delicious Animal Feed of a mixture of Flour 2x and Strawberry 2x through Windmill on your farm.

Upgrade Animal Barn and Chicken Coop

If you want to upgrade the barn and coop, you could buy the upgrade from Doc's Architect. Talk to him when he is at home from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM, except Sundays.

But, this upgrade will be only available after you finish the main story. Upgrading a barn or coop allows you to raise animals from initially 5 to 15.

That's all you need to know about animals in Harvest Moon: Light of Hope. If there is a question related to this article, please feel free to ask me via comments. Thank you...
