How to shear a creature?
« on: October 28, 2011, 08:58:00 am »
Hello!

I would like to know why, when I order my dwart to shear a creature (by the farmer's workshop menu) it sai" no creature"?
I have a lama, an alpaca and a goat, I build the workshop near pasture... is it a bug?

The creature may not be ready for shearing.  You have to wait for its hair to grow to a certain length before you can shear them.  If you examine the creature's description, it should tell you how long its hair is.
