While you are there buying your chicken, it would be best to buy some chicken food for it as well, it is cheap at 10 G a purchase. They cost 1500 G and you can name them after the purchase. To get chickens, you have to go to the Poultry Farm and buy them. To care for him, you must brush him, talk to him, and put him indoors when it is raining. You will be able to win a power berry in the Horse races. Your horse will be fully grown after one year and, when he is fully grown, you may participate in the horse races! Other than that, your horse serves a few other purposes other than racing such as a ride around your farm and a shipping bag. He will ask you to take care of it, and if you say yes, you can give it a name. You get the horse from Barley a few days after you start the game. To care for him, all you really need to do is to take him indoors when it rains. He is really only needed to win the power berry on Beach day (he must be fully grown to enter the contest). When you start, he is a puppy, but by the beginning of Fall, he will be fully grown.

The children concluded: “We did not start protesting to get awards, but because the people in positions of power were not acting. They flagged up that roads were still being built, suggested many more trees could be planted and expressed concern that pension funds have been invested in businesses that profit from fossil fuels. Can I have fresh air please? Not an award.” I go outside after school and the air doesn’t feel fresh. The sea levels are rising, flooding is more frequent and people brush it under the carpet.
