Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos is a charming adventure and farming RPG. Players will be tasked with restoring multiple villages after volcanic eruptions shut them off from each other. You will also get to grow crops, raise animals for products, and keep pets on your homestead.
Animals require some care and attention if players want to keep them happy and reap their benefits. First and foremost, they must be fed regularly, so this guide has everything players need to know to feed their animals in Harvest Moon:The Winds of Anthos.
Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos - How to Fish
There are plenty of fish for players to catch in Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos, and here is how to do it.
How to Feed Animals in Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos
There are two kinds of animals in Harvest Moon: The Winds of Anthos: pets and barn animals. Pets are social companions that players keep inside their houses and benefit from. The type of pet they can have depends on the size of their home. Barn animals stay inside the barn next to the farmhouse, and players can harvest products such as milk, eggs, and wool from them.
Wild animals and barn animals can be tamed and taken back to live on farms. Common animals can also be purchased in town, although your first hen will be gifted. Pets and barn animals both need to be fed daily. Luckily, getting them food is quite simple.
How to Feed Barn Animals
Players can use animal feed, fodder, grass, or weeds for their barn animals to eat. Animal feed and grass seeds can be bought from the animal handler in Lectenbury. Weeds are the easiest to get and most cost-efficient since farmers can harvest them by cutting down grass. Fodder can be made from corn. Corn seeds can be picked up off Harvest Wisps floating throughout the overworld and grown on a garden plot.
The farmhouse barn has rows of animal feed bins and an auto-feeder at the back. Players can use the auto-feeder to refill the bins, make feed from fodder, weeds, and grass, or store animal feed. Barn animals that are fed will drop regular products.
How to Feed House Pets
Pets include dogs, rabbits, cats, birds, and ferrets. Players can purchase them from the store or befriend them in the wild. Once an animal is tamed, they can take it to live in their home. The number of house pets players can have depends on their house size and ranges from one to three to five.
House Pets eat Animal Feed. Pets can be fed by hand or using a Food Dish. The Food Dish can be made at the farmhouse workbench using three Silver Ore. If players remember to feed their pets and interact with them daily, they will earn abilities like stamina or heart restoration once they reach full friendship.

WHERE TO PLAY
Explore the Amazing World of Anthos!
The land of Anthos was a peaceful and harmonious land watched over by the Harvest Goddess and the Harvest Sprites, who protected the inhabitants of Anthos from natural disasters such as storms, earthquakes, and the like.
However, one day many years ago, Anthos experienced a severe volcanic eruption that threatened life on Anthos itself, and the Harvest Goddess and Harvest Sprites had to use all of their remaining power to keep the people and animals of Anthos safe. This left the different villages across the land blocked off from each other. Some unfortunate souls even got trapped outside their villages, and were unable to return...
Believing that the separated villages and people would one day be reconnected, the Harvest Goddess sent out a bottle with a letter and a magic key, then fell into a deep sleep...
Now, 10 years later, you have found the SOS the Harvest Goddess sent to the world in the form of a message in a bottle! With the help of your wacky inventor friend Doc Jr. And many others, it’ll be up to you to revive the Harvest Goddess and the Harvest Sprites, as well as reconnect all of the villages of Anthos with each other!
