Your calf is now fully grown! This will show you how many Fair points you will get, the Pedigree, the rewards and the feeding info of your new Cow! You can also name your calf as well.

Pedigree:

All Cows now have a Pedigree, which awards you Fair points and increases the number of its output. Pedigree is the Power Level of the bred Cow. Once the calf is raised into an Adult, the Pedigree will become active.

There are a total of six Pedigree levels (Pedigree 5 being the HIGHEST):

• Pedigree 0 – Cows only available for Coins
• Pedigree 1 – You can breed a Pedigree 1 or purchase it for Coins in the General Store

Raising a baby bred calf will activate its Pedigree. If the bred Cow is your highest Pedigree for the week, you will earn Pedigree Points towards the Weekly Fair Event. Once you have reached Pedigree 5, you will have earned the maximum amount of Pedigree Points for the week.
