Aang! I bought us a herd! Do you want to help me train them?

Edit: I can't believe I forgot to ask you this, but it slipped my mind that you're an earthbender! Will you make a mountain for them?

[Open to everyone else]

Hello crew! I noticed we don't have anything domesticated in the giant garden . . . area, place, so I used my money from Stacy to buy some livestock. Aren't they cute?

[The picture accompanying the message is of a couple of some medium-sized animals, looking an awful lot like sloths, but four feet tall at the shoulder and with long, light fur. The fur appears translucent white, except where it appears to be lit from within in electric shades of purple and orange. All of the animals' bioluminescence is in more or less the same, jagged pattern in the photo.]

The breeder on XaXing said the females will produce eggs and milk when they reach maturity in a few months, like a platypus bear. That gives me enough time to train them to be milked. Does anyone want to help take care of them? They're very gentle, but not quite as restful as sloth-bats, so it would help if they were socialized in playing with humans and other speaking people.

Oh, and I was talking to someone about shearing animals to weave their fur before! What was your name again? You need to come by and meet the herd. Their wool is beautiful. You can make wonderful blankets out of it, and they're close to needing a shearing.

Also, I brought back this special fungus that they need to keep making the colors in their fur like they do. Can anyone help me start a crop to keep in their diet? It sounds kind of unnecessary, but they communicate by changing the patterns of their color, so actually it would be really great for the health of the herd if somebody who's a gardener would cultivate it on the ship!
