📋 About This Mod

Here's the new update for 1. 6

Silkmoth -> there are 4 variantes, which you can find their eggs laying around several locations, each produces has a chance of producing a different color Silkcocoon, which can be turned into Silk Cloth with a Loom.

Purchased from Marnie:

Black Sheep -> Deluxe Barn -> A type of Sheep - works similarly! Produces Black Wool which can be used in the Loom to turn it into Black Cloth. Some NPCs love that cloth - can be used to craft a new shirt in the sewing machine.

Armadillo -> Included in this pack, they find geodes when outside.

Peacock -> Deluxe Barn -> Peacocks sheds their feathers every season during the first week. Peacock Feather can be used to as an universal loved gift and used to craft Peacock Feather Hat in the sewing machine.

(NEW) Peahen -> Lays eggs during spring. Eggs can be sold, turned into 5 gold quality Mayonnaise or hatched since peacocks are very expensive they can be sold for a very good price.

Mole -> Coop -> finds mixed seeds with a small chance of finding ancient seeds, mixed flower seed mossy seeds and clay

Buffalo -> Big Barn -> Can be milked every other day, milk can be turned into Buffalo Cheese using Cheese Press. Large milk can produce 2 cheese based on quality.

Deer-> Deluxe Barn-> Can be milked every three days, milk can be turned into Deer Cheese using Cheese Press - Deer Cheese keeps the quality of the original cheese.

Deers-> Sprites are from Eemie's Plastic Surgery for your goats so all the credit for the deers (which are deffinitelly the cutest of all are hers).
