Dyed sheep

Recommended Posts

It would be a really nice addition to expand the recent animal update with the feature to dye our sheep. Right now it's almost impossible to see which sheep is an offspring of another sheep as they do not have names.

With this new feature you would be able to dye the sheep and keep them easily separated without needing to put them in way too small dens!

 

I suggest this should cost about 0.05-0.1kg of dye and show up as a spot on the back or sides of the sheep.

I brand all my animals so I can give them a name myself  

but yes, if you dont got any deed, you cant brand them 

so then it might be a good idea  :)

And if you're non-prem but you want to mass breed, during that period it would be a nice solution as you can't brand while non-prem.

I'd like at least the wool to be the color of the sheep it's harvested from. 

 

Right now, shear a black sheep and you get wool that's the same color as wool from a white or grey sheep.

Wogic is not a compliment.

You can name sheep if you brand them. Just like you can name donkeys, deer or cow and bulls. I think the only creature you can't name after branding them are pigs. Don't know why, I guess not many people breed them.

But I used to brand all aninmals and name them to prevent inbreeding.

You should keep track of the names because once the parent dies you will no longer be able to see who the offspring belonged to.

I'd love a touch of color on the sheep. So much fun to collect stuff like that! :)

This is exactly why we shouldn't have it.

Would love to have more natural variation in the sheep colors. Just like we have with the horses. Also a black or brown sheep should really give black or brown wool. Not sure what the use would be yet but perhaps there could be a special use for colored wool.
Btw, pigs come in different variants as well. Just saying.
