Thanks both of you for your expertise on farm dino's heritage!

I finally found out how to do a full farm screenshot, so here it is (had to use an image hosting thingie because the file is too big, I hope it works).



Apple trees/saplings: 110

Sheep: 90

I have started to create a little orange orchard on Ginger Island, too. Fruit trees ftw

Nice That does not look like a lot of remaining grass per sheep though!

Yeah they eat it very quickly, but you can plant new grass! You have to either craft "grass starter" yourself or buy it at the town shop, which I'm always a bit lazy about... They have hay to eat in the barns too though.

Apple trees: 111 (I counted wrong the last time...)

Sheep: 108

I don't have much space for trees left, but there's still potential to get even more sheep.

This does seem quite an inefficient set of interactions with grass, one of the advantages of which is precisely that you don't usually need to replant it...!

How many more sheep can you obtain now?

As far as I can tell the grass does grow/expand on its own once you plant a few starters somewhere, but the sheep eat it faster than it can grow most of the time, so I end up replanting it frequently.

I can obtain sheep as long as I have room for barns (unless the game has some limit I'm unaware of). So I guess I could squeeze in at least a dozen or two more, let's see!

I re-arranged and decorated the farm a bit, here is an autumnal screenshot:



Apple trees/saplings: 119

Sheep: 132

Everything's going quite well. I'm currently getting another shed built for more looms and/or dehydrator devices since I have so much wool and so many apples... Two of the existing sheds are full of looms, one is full of kegs for making wine. The dehydrators are in the house atm but I'm running out of space there.

And this is my second little farm on Ginger Island.



I use this one to grow crops and some trees too. You can grow anything all year round which is quite convenient!

Why do you have wine kegs? Are you also producing grapes? Or does it count cider as a wine?

The kegs are just general kegs, you can put all kinds of stuff in there to make wine, juice, beer, coffee, tea, vinegar, or mead. So you can have the classic grape wine (yes, you can grow grapes), or apple and other fruit wine, vegetable juice,... hops & wheat can be made into beer, honey into mead, etc.
