So far I've got a big-faced dog called... Bigface, a cow called Rainbow, loads of milk and some 'cultivated land' watered.
I haven't played ti for long, about 15 minutes, but it really is amazing.
Get it.
I love it, the best game i've played on the Cube.
[S]minus Zelda...
Got a baby cow.
My other cow is proprely pregnant.
Got the milking room.
Tartan showed up - I'll be making hybrid trees by Summer.
Hoorah.
I've also now got all the strange / weird tools off people, plus the watering can and shiny sheep shears, the ducks and the cat.
Anyone know who (if anyone) gives you the other milker? There's a space for it in the tool shed.
And I just saw >another< cut-scene with Daryl.
Came out of the dig site and he was planning to blow up the Prof's tent with a cannon. But he didn't, because Flora showed up, and he wants to bone her hard.

She will after exactly a year.

You can sell stuff in bulk.
Talk to him, choose 'Sell', pick something from the menu and he'll say "One of those is blah-blah G - how many will you sell?" then you can choose how many.

The bull has the green heart when it's got another cow pregnant.
The question mark is when you've got a new cow that hasn't been gotten pregnant yet - a cow has to give birth before it gives any milk at all.
Which sucks, I know. I thought you could just buy a new one and milk it right away, but no.
Thank God for my trees and free seed maker. I've got 55,000 G now (about) from only 2 trees. By next year (in Autumn now) I'll have 6 fully-grown trees.

Stop trying to milk the bull... :-)
First of all, my original cow's been pregnant for, quite literally, the past YEAR now, and, although it says her and the baby are "doing fine" or whatever, it doesn't seem like she's gonna be givin' birth to it anytime soon...! :P
I've got a brown female cow, and a male black and white one also. Yet, from none of these THREE do I appear to be getting ANY milk whatsoever!
My best way of making money is by selling stuff to Fat Van, one-at-a-time, which is so bloody repetitive. :P
I've got one cow that has a Green Heart above its head when I try to milk it, and the other one just shows a Question Mark - I've tried reading through the manual and asking Tatakuraka, but I'm still stuck.
What do I do, please?
Mmmm ....
For a laff (although no actual laughing occured) I thought I'd just skip through 3 seasons by sleeping - much easier with the alarm clock.
By the end, only 1 animal had died - my Bull. You actually get to see it collapse and die, which was fun. All the other animals were ill, though, and all dirty.
But my trees had grown up to full size with no watering, no birds had died even though they had no food, and I had 2 new calves - 1 fully grown up by the end of it.
So, in case you were wondering, you can pretty much ignore everything for a season or more with no real problems. I didn't save it, of course, that would be stupid.
