Milking problems

[noonesmatt]

does anyone had any problems when milking the goats and cows, because some of mine does not produce milk, even tho they r fully grown and female, this happened all of a sudden

Cows and goats can be milked up to twice a day (morning at 10am and evening after 6pm)
Although if you have changed the length of the day this can at times cause issues with these timings

We're not at that part yet, but do the cows and goats need have given labor before they can produce? Like irl? Or nah?

No you can purchase a cow and milk it right away. As soon as a calf grows into a cow and shows utters you can milk it. Milking with a bucket, a milk cow gives 7 with a milking machine it gives 14, beef cows are always 7. Havnt played with goats I have just a big cow ranch.

The beef cows will only give 7 with the milking machine. The dairy cows will give 14 with the milking machine.

Recheck you have right type of cow. Because I have always been able to fill one milk container from three dairy cows using milking machine.

Have you tried the other type of cow? I have read comments from people more familiar with cows in real life that say the models for the cows in this game are swapped.
