Well, Now Doesn't that Beat All? UPDATE

Their Coop even reads 0 Chicks; 1 Hen; 0 Rooster. Sadness. They both had built up such a good rapport with the chicken, too. The prizes Kayleigh received don't add up to the price of a Rooster, either.

Yes, I lost a Llama who had won first place much the same way. I hope they fix it soon.

I know you checked their inventories, did you check both the personal and household inventories? My animals were in my family household inventory instead of the personal. Sorry you lost them after putting time in befriending them.

Thank you. That never occurred to me, I'll check that today. They were really fond of that Rooster, and he them, too. I found it rather interesting that Erik didn't realize the white Rooster was his very own, but he did 'feel a bond toward this rooster', wondering if he could purchase it. LOL What a dolt he can be at times. Thanks for the hint!

Just opened my game today and found Colonel Eggbert in the Family Inventory! YAY. Thank you @ Sara010P! You saved the day!

Your very welcome, I am glad you found them.

lol "Colonel Eggbert" love it :D

Has this happened to anyone else?

Did you check home inventory?

Yes, after another player suggested he might be there. He was. And he's home. I just hate the fact I keep getting popups at just how old he and the Hen, Hattie is. Hoping there's more pets in their future. ::sob::

I respond as I read, so after responding to you I kept reading and saw some one mention the home inventory. Give them healthy treats. I vaguely remember something about making them live longer, I think it might be that. If not look into it, because I'm sure I heard something some where.

I respond as I read, too. I don't like to be influenced by what others have already said, but sometimes I'm of a similar mind to them. :open_mouth:
