Something afoot with the rabbit's foot?

[ChrillBill]

Has anyone ever thought about the rabbit's foot, and how it is given by a rabbit that is happy and that you have a good relationship with? That is a tremendous gift, to say the least. Giving someone your feet. The rabbits in this game must be magical if they can just drop a foot and then regrow it. I mean they must be able to regrow them judging from the fact that they are bouncing around on all four all the time, even when they have left you some of their feet. It's just something I have thought a lot about during my recent playthrough :>

lol, like a iguana regrowing its tail.

Yeah :p Unless they are getting them from somewhere else when they are outside... But that would make me wonder who is leaving rabbit feet in the woods o.o

Yeah, I remember having a similar line of thought myself years ago about the rabbit feet. However, I've since been using the mod 'DZK312's Fanciful Resources' from Nexus, which gives the option to turn the rabbits foot into a four-leaf clover as a workaround. It's not really a rabbit related product, but it solves the weirdness for me.

On a related note, I'd also recommend 'Museum Artifacts Reimagined' by herbivoor and 'Gold to titanium' by olioleander, for further visual/logical overhaul of various items. I needed to do some manual patching/basic image editing to get 'Gold to titanium' to not be partly overwritten by 'Fanciful Resources', but titanium tools make way more sense to me than gold ones.

Edit: One more similar mod I use: 'Better Gems and Minerals' by cometkins. If using all of them, there's some overlap and you'll have to decide which one you want to have it's changes 'win' for what item or category. They all have pretty robust config options though.

Rabbit foot looks more like rabbit whool spun together to make it look like some tail shaped product.

Some modern day "rabbit feet" are just a bunch or angora (rabbit) wool. I've decided to think of it that way.

Thanks for the mod recommendations :> I'm gonna check them out.

When I first played the game I thought it was some sort of vegetable, judging from the shape.

Okay, I didn't know that :> I had a gorgeous angora bunny once. He was a real poser ^.^

Aww! I've had several mini satins and they're just spoiled brats.

I've never had Satins :> Though my Lionheads and Netherland Dwarfs was pretty spoiled ^.^

we had a dog who make friends with all the wild rabbits in our back yard. They would often wait on the front lawn for him to come out before bed, just to say hi to each other. One day he found 3 baby rabbits and wanted me to bring them in the house. He stood there staring at them for 15 minutes and wouldn't come in until I came out and picked one of them up.

[esturias]

I was a bit confused at the beginning, too, but I've always seen it as a kind of charm or token made from the rabbit's wool.

Honestly, in a game where we specifically do NOT kill (or otherwise "harvest" our animals) I found the whole rabbit's foot thing more than a little creepy, and I try to just ignore it on anything other than the most abstract of levels.

Aw that's very sweet :> Had a Siberian Husky once, she wasn't as friendly towards them as your dog :p She would chase them like crazy. I swear sometimes it was like she was taking me for a "walk" instead of the other way around o.o Was the baby bunnies in a nest? It is often best not to touch babies in a nest unless you are very sure that the mother has abandoned them or perhaps died.

Come to think of it, that would mean that the rabbits are very crafty o.o If they can put
them together like that and then leave them for the farmer. No matter how you look at it,
it seems like there are more to the rabbits in this game than meets the eye ;D

Yeah and I was also a bit surprised that I didn't think of it much until recently. It just struck me when I collected them from my coop on my current playthrough, like "Wait...These are supposed to be feet? FEET o.o" xP Guess it had to happen sooner or later.

Crafty DIY rabbits, pigs that poop out truffles and cows that give milk without pregnancy. It's a magical world. ;)

[Queen Droxxanna]

the pigs don't poop out truffles, they dig them up.

the baby rabbits were just snuggled together in the grass at the base of a tree.
