*Grooming can be done while moving(and while mounted), so long as you do not move too far away (two tiles) from the tile you are currently working on.

== Breeding ==
*Females will not breed while they are pregnant. Once the female gives birth, she will not be in mood for breeding for 24 real hours.
*[[Age]] is a factor in breeding: Juvenile animal types ([[calves]], [[foal]]s, [[lamb]]s, and [[seal cub]]s) will not breed, neither will young/early adolescent animals. (Horses will breed at 25 rl days old)
*Pregnancy times varies from 5-11 Wurm [[TimeWurm Universe|weeks]], regardless of species. **Examining the animal will show the remaining days left until birth; for example, {{event|inline|She will deliver in about 4 days.}} This is approximately 4 days, or 4 [[Time of WurmUniverse|Wurm weeks.]]
*Breeding female animals with [[animal conditions|conditions]] such as [[Champion]] will provide a chance that the offspring will also have that characteristic. This chance is dramatically increased when breeding two animals with the same condition together. (Two Champions for example.)
*Breeding two animals with the same trait greatly increases the chance that the offspring will have the trait.
Animal husbandry is only partially on the [[Curve]]. The curved value (effective skill) allows you see traits at that level (not true for bred in captivity trait which requires 60 numerical to see even on epic). But the actual value (numerical) is used for computing the number of traits you can breed.
Examining an animal will show traits if one has the required skill level. See the chart below for skill values required in succesfully examining and actually seeing specific traits present in an animal.

=== Inbreeding ===
Inbreeding occurs when an offspring is bred with either of its parents or a sibling. Inbreeding has a an increased chance to pass bad traits if the parents have bad traits, but does not inherently create a bigger chance for bad traits in the offspring. Inbreeding may be unavoidable in small herds; it's advised to seek neighbours to begin a herd if one wishes to avoid inbreeding.
Inbreeding does '''not''' occur past 1 generation. You can breed grandchildren of the same grandparents together with no inbreeding penalty.
