Animal Housing

The animals that you can ranch in Coral Island are divided into two different buildings, the Coop and the Barn. Plus an additional building to house a Horse. Depending on which animals you want to have on your Ranch you’ll need to decide which to build first. To get started on your construction head over to the Carpenters Joko and Dinda.
Coop

The Coop can currently house four different animals: the Chicken, Duck, Peafowl and Quail.
It will cost you: 100x Wood, 50x Stone, 5x Bronze Bar, 10x Fiber and 2000 Coins to construct. It takes one day to build, and can initially hold 4 animals.
To upgrade the Coop in order to hold up to 8 animals you’ll need 20x Wood and 10,000 Coins.
Barn

The Barn can currently house six different animals: the Cow, Goat, Sheep, Llama, Luwak and Pig.
It will cost you: 200x Wood, 100x Stone, 5x Bronze Bar, 10x Fiber and 3000 Coins to construct. It takes one day to build, and can initially hold 4 animals.
To upgrade the Bran in order to hold up to 8 animals you’ll need 30x Wood, 2x Bronze Bar and 5000 Coins.
Stable

The Stable can only house one animal, the Horse.
It will cost you: 200x Stone, 50x Scrap, 5x Silver Bar and 15,000 Coins to construct. It takes one day to build and it does not look like you can upgrade it to get more horses.
Once you have purchased the construction for the animal house of your choice with the materials and coins above, you will then need to find an open spot on your farm to build it. Once you place the building down, in order to move it go back to the carpenters and purchase a move or destroy order for your buildings.
Taking Care Of Your Animals

Now that you have your chosen farm animal at home you’re going to have to take care of them. It’s a two-step process that you’ll need to do every day to ensure they’re happy and give the highest quality products.
- Feed them every day. Right now all animals eat Hay which you’ll need to buy from the Ranch. You’ll be able to unlock making your own Hay later on (Mill+Grass). But right now make sure you’re stocked up.
- Pet them every day. There’s a little heart above your animal’s head that indicates their relationship with you. Pet them every day to make them grow.
The more you care for your animals and consistently feed them, the happier they’ll be. This translates to higher quality animal products, which can be sold for more money.
Upgrade Hay

The Laboratory offers upgrades to the quality of the player’s seeds, plants, fruit trees, and hay. Each upgrade costs some essence produced from kelps using the Extractor.
Upgrade Type | Cost | Essence |
---|---|---|
Hay (Level 1) | 1,250 | Bronze kelp essence (15) / Bronze kelp essence (10) |
Hay (Level 2) | 7,000 | Silver kelp essence (15) / Silver kelp essence (10) |
Upgrades purchased at the laboratory apply to all hay in the player’s inventory and all future hay purchases with no increase in price. Once upgraded, the base quality of all animal products will increase.
Ranching Skills

The efficiency of the player’s ranching tools is increased as they gain levels in their ranching skill. Gaining levels also allows them to obtain new crafting recipes or points to spend in their ranching tree. Gain ranching EXP by petting your animals and harvesting their animal produce.
