IN Crimson desertRanching livestock is a way for players to passively earn money, food, and special materials like milk and fleece from their home base. All you need to do to start raising animals in the game is to bring a male and a female to the ranch and let nature take care of the rest. Here's how it works.

Crimson Desert features mountable and rideable bears that are much more aggressive and grizzly than the trusty horse.
How to raise livestock in the Crimson Desert
IN Crimson Desertplayers can raising livestock by placing a male and female pair of the same species on a ranch together after one was built at the Howling Hill camp during the Field of Abundance faction mission for the Greymanes.
Each animal has a male and female variant and you will only be able to breed them after a fully grown pair is placed on the ranch.
After an adult male-female couple has been registered at the ranch, the couple will breed to produce a young within 5-10 daysdepending on the species. For example, goats take 5 days, but cows require more time.
The following table lists the names of males and females of all breeding species of animals in Crimson desertand also where players can find them in the game.

What should you feed the crimson desert animals?
Chickens, kids, calves, and other baby animals will only grow into their adult form if you feed them enough food.. Food can be placed in a feeding bin inside the ranch fence. Any edible item can be placed inside and will serve as food for the animals inside, but some foods seem to be better than others for promoting growth.
Growth is represented by yellow lines to the left of the animal's name when viewed through Ranch management while talking to Ben. The best pet food we have found so far Crimson desert there are items like apples, carrots, lentils, eggs and other vegetable items that can be purchased at Grocery store in Hernando.
Food is not a requirement for breeding; only to help baby animals grow into adults.
