We kept our animals for a while outside of a barn, stacked into a makeshift fence. It annoyed my town and me because they were on each other and accessing to one was complicated, even more for gathering manure. So we decided to make a barn, whatever if it's expensive.
Now we have a barn. I am not sure yet but for now the only advantage of a barn is that the cows stopped MOOOOOOing all the time in our ears (which could have been done without a barn and with a little file modification). That's all. A barn has :
- despite it's size, very few space inside for animals if you don't want them to stack on each other
- no doors to close the animals in their box (so if you don't want your two new rams to kill each other, build boxes or idk)
- no possibility to build your own walls inside (seriously I wish I could just destroy the existing fence and make my own)
It's supposed to make animals less sick, but well ya know. -80% nerf make it... Well anyway. At this point you're not forced to build a barn if you don't want to.
...so now that I grmbled about the barn, I'll just show you the foods I have access to and let you decide if it's worth or not (note that I don't have advanced cooking) :
About other goodies... didn't have the time to try on the capes. And I don't know what other goodie you get with animals. Ah except manure maybe... Yeah not bad...
