What does a Ranch hand do?

Mine will do gardening, repairs and taking care of horses and livestock but you do have to choose those things from the Ranch Hand menu. They will also clean inside the house, which I personally wish they wouldn't but there doesn't seem to be a way to stop that. The worst thing though is that while they can collect manure and harvest plants if you ask them to - then these things go into your household inventory - they don't seem to be able to milk goats or shear sheep. Isn't it kind of ridiculous that they can't do that? I mean the milk/wool could just go into your household inventory too.

But if a simmer does not have the CoL pack, will there then be any milk/wool object to add to your inventory? I think it can't be done because not everyone owns Cottage Living.

I hope they added milk and wool to the Horse Ranch pack for people who don't have Cottage Living. It wouldn't be fair to not have goat milk and sheep's wool if you buy HR but don't have CoL.

They didn't. I'm guessing because you need those items in Cottage Living.

You can get milk and wool from the mini sheep and goats or sell it direct for simoleons when you click on them

There’s a bug right now where ranch hands will show up for two days, and then not come again. This has been happening to me, annoyingly. If I hire another ranch hand through the phone, the same one as before shows up. It was autumn the first time this happened to me and the day he didn’t show up was Harvestfest, so I thought “well maybe they don’t come on holidays”, but then I googled and others have been having the same issue. And it happened on days that weren’t holidays.
