11Overview2233The Rancher profession is mentored by Pastelle at Green Pasture Ranch, located just north of your farmland. It covers animal husbandry, product collection, and the breeding and genetics system. Each tier unlocks new animal types, barns, and breeding equipment.4455Prerequisite: You must complete the Apprentice Farmer Certification first. After becoming an Apprentice Farmer, check your mailbox for a letter from Pastelle, then visit her at Green Pasture Ranch to begin.6677TierKey UnlockApprenticeRabbit Hutch, Feeder, Brush, LoomJuniorChickens, Ducks, Coops, Premium Wool productionIntermediateBreeding House, Pigs, Cows, Sheep, BeesSeniorMounts (Horses, Deer), Stables, Love Feeder, Friendship CollarExpertAlpacas, Ostriches, Auto Milker, Selective Breeding House88Apprentice Rancher991010Certification: Wool Collection11111212Visit Pastelle at Green Pasture Ranch after reading her letter from your mailbox.Pastelle gives you a free Rabbit and the blueprints for a Rabbit Hutch, Feeder, and Brush.Craft the Rabbit Hutch (15 Softwood + 5 Fiber) and place it on your ranch.Place the Feeder near the hutch and fill it with Weeds or Wild Berries (rabbits eat both).Use the Brush on your rabbit daily to increase its happiness. Higher happiness means better product quality.Collect 4 Wool from your rabbit. Wool appears in the rabbit's hutch periodically. Each rabbit produces one Wool roughly once per day when fed and happy.Deliver the 4 Wool to Pastelle to complete the certification.131314141515Trial: Soft Flannel Fabric16161717Pastelle asks you to craft fabric for Alex at Lex Woodworks.Craft a Loom (unlocked after becoming Apprentice Rancher).Process your Wool into 2 Flannel using the Loom.Deliver the 2 Flannel to Alex.Return to Pastelle to complete the trial.18181919Rewards20202121Apprentice Rancher CertificationAccess to purchase Rabbits (75 coins each) from PastelleLoom blueprint (converts Wool into Flannel and other fabrics)Feeder and Brush blueprints for basic animal care22222323Junior Rancher24242525Certification: Premium Wool26262727Speak to Pastelle to start the Junior trial.Raise your rabbit's happiness to 150 or higher. Happiness increases through daily brushing, keeping the Feeder stocked, and petting your rabbit.A rabbit with happiness above 150 produces Premium Wool instead of regular Wool.Collect 2 Premium Wool from your high-happiness rabbit.Deliver the Premium Wool to Pastelle to complete the certification.28282929Trial: Giant Eggs30303131Pastelle asks you to bring Giant Eggs to Solara at the hotel.Purchase Chickens (300 coins each) from Pastelle. You need at least 2 chickens.Build a Coop for your chickens and keep them well-fed with Bug Feed or Grain.Raise chicken happiness above 150 so they produce Giant Eggs instead of regular Eggs.Collect 2 Giant Eggs and deliver them to Solara.Return to Pastelle to complete the trial.32323333Rewards34343535Junior Rancher CertificationAccess to purchase Chickens (300 coins) and Ducks (300 coins)Coop blueprint for housing poultryIncubator blueprint for hatching eggs36363737Animal Products38383939AnimalCostProductsSpecial RoleRabbit75 coinsWool, PoopEats weeds on your farmChicken300 coinsEggs, Feathers, PoopClears bugs and pests (up to 5 per day)Duck300 coinsEggs, Feathers, PoopEats snails on your farm4040Intermediate Rancher41414242Certification: Breed a Lop-Eared Rabbit43434444The Intermediate tier introduces the Breeding House, where you can breed animals to produce offspring with genetic traits.45454646Purchase the Breeding House blueprint from Pastelle (3,500 coins) and build it on your ranch.Place two rabbits of opposite gender into the Breeding House. If you only have one rabbit, purchase a second from Pastelle.Wait for the breeding cycle to complete (approximately 1 day). The offspring has a chance of inheriting the Lop-Eared genetic trait.If the offspring is not Lop-Eared, breed again. The trait is a random mutation, so it may take several attempts.Show the Lop-Eared Rabbit to Pastelle to complete the certification.47474848Trial: Colored Fabric49495050Pastelle asks you to craft colored fabric for Serena.Purchase a Snowool (White Sheep, 650 coins) and an Ebowool (Black Sheep, 650 coins) from Pastelle.Collect White Wool and Black Wool from your sheep.Process the wool at the Loom into colored fabric.Deliver the colored fabric to Serena.Return to Pastelle to complete the trial.51515252Rewards53535454Intermediate Rancher CertificationBreeding House blueprint (core breeding facility)Access to new animals:55555656AnimalCostProductsPig650 coinsTruffles, PoopCow650 coinsMilk, PoopSnowool (White Sheep)650 coinsWhite Wool, Sheep Saliva, Sheep Milk, PoopEbowool (Black Sheep)650 coinsBlack Wool, Sheep Saliva, Sheep Milk, PoopQueen Bee400 coinsHoney5757Senior Rancher58585959Certification: Breed a 4-Gene Rabbit60606161Before the White Horse trial, Pastelle first asks you to demonstrate genetic breeding mastery by producing a rabbit with 4 positive genetic traits.62626363Use the Breeding House to pair rabbits that already carry positive genes.Offspring inherit genes from both parents with a chance of mutation. Aim to stack 4 different positive traits on a single rabbit.Rabbits are the best choice for gene stacking because of their low cost (75 coins) and fast breeding cooldown.Show the 4-gene rabbit to Pastelle.64646565Trial: Breed a White Horse66666767The White Horse is the most challenging breeding goal in the game. White Horses do not spawn in the wild and cannot be purchased. They must be bred through genetic mutation. Plan for 15 to 25 breeding attempts on average.68686969Purchase Horses (1,350 coins each) from Pastelle. You need at least one male and one female.Build a Stable and a Love Feeder (boosts breeding success rates).Place two horses in the Breeding House and wait for offspring.Check the offspring's coat color. If it is not white, breed the offspring with another horse and repeat.The white coat is a rare genetic mutation. Keeping parent happiness high and using the Love Feeder improves your odds slightly.Show the White Horse to Zephyria (not Pastelle) to complete the trial.70707171Genetic Traits to Prioritize72727373While breeding for the White Horse, try to pass along these positive traits to make your animals more productive:74747575Positive TraitEffectWorkaholicAnimal works more times dailyTwins30% chance of multiple offspringPrecocialGrowth time reduced by 1 dayStrongBreeding cooldown reduced by 1 dayBulkinessAnimal grows larger (produces more)Optimism50% chance happiness doubles from interactions7676Negative Trait (Eliminate)EffectPrideCannot be pettedPetitenessGrows smaller (produces less)BloomHappiness boost decreased by 1 point7777Rewards78787979Senior Rancher CertificationAccess to Horses (1,350 coins) and Deer (1,350 coins) as rideable mountsStable blueprint for housing mountsLove Feeder blueprint (boosts breeding success)Friendship Collar blueprint (increases animal happiness gain)80808181Expert Rancher82828383Certification: Breed a 5-Gene Animal84848585The Expert Rancher certification requires breeding an animal with 5 maxed positive genes. Rabbits are the recommended choice due to their low cost (75 coins) and fast breeding cycle.86868787Continue using the Breeding House to pair rabbits with the most positive genes.Each breeding attempt can pass genes from both parents and occasionally introduce new mutations.Focus on rabbits that already have 3 or 4 genes and pair them together. Discard offspring with fewer genes than the parents.Track which genes each rabbit carries by checking its info panel. You need 5 different positive traits all at maximum level on a single animal.Show the 5-gene animal to Pastelle to complete the certification.88888989Rewards90909191Expert Rancher CertificationAccess to new premium animals:92929393AnimalCostProductsSpecialAlpaca2,750 coinsWool/Fiber, PoopSingle-rider mount; 4 breeding variantsOstrich2,750 coinsEggs, Feathers, PoopSingle-rider mount; 4 breeding variants9494Auto Milker blueprint (automatically collects milk from cows and sheep)Selective Breeding House blueprint (lets you target specific genetic traits during breeding)95959696Tips97979898Brush and pet your animals every day. Happiness directly affects product quality: regular products below 100 happiness, Premium products above 150.Rabbits eat weeds that grow on your farmland, saving you manual clearing time. Keep a few rabbits roaming free on your farm.Chickens clear up to 5 bugs or pests per day from your farm. Place their coop near your crop fields for the best effect.For the White Horse trial, breed in bulk. Buy multiple horses and run several breeding pairs simultaneously to speed up the process.For the 5-gene Expert trial, start with rabbits early. Gene stacking takes many generations, so begin breeding rabbits for genes as soon as you unlock the Breeding House at Intermediate tier.Keep the Love Feeder stocked at all times during breeding sessions. It reduces breeding cooldown and improves offspring quality.The Selective Breeding House at Expert tier is a major upgrade. It lets you pick which parent traits to prioritize, making future breeding projects much faster.
