My cow won't produce milk!

So one of my two cows hasn't been giving any milk for tha past three or so in-game days. I've been feeding them everyday. Does anyone have any idea why this might be happening?

Maybe it's a boy.

Are you also petting them every day?

You mention feeding them - so you are in winter (or it's been raining for 3 days)? You might not get regular milk in winter unless you pet the animals daily and put in a heater, especially if your relationship with the animal isn't very high.

If it's not winter or raining, then you ought to be letting them outside to eat grass daily. That provides a fairly large boost to animal happiness.

If they aren't pet daily and fed they won't produce. Occationally they won't produce anyway, usually when they can't go outside which makes them happier. But in general cows will produce milk everyday so long as their needs are met.

Is it possibly pregnant? I had a goat mysteriously stop giving milk and then a few days later I had a new arrival. I don't know if this was just a fluke, but it might be somthing to consider.

There is a bug with animal happiness that will cause them to stop producing. I'm sure CA knows about it and will fix it in a future update, but for now I suggest using the Happy Animals mod. I use it and MAN does it make a difference in profit. xD You still have to pet them every day and make sure they have food (and a heater in winter) but it bypasses the bug for now.
