Why did I make a pen for the cows, but they are constantly full but do not give milk and it says that “maybe they don’t have enough food”  
This is actually my cow pen.

Although, for example, in the experimental one this was enough to feed on milk forever. Now I play on 0.H

I’m also playing 0.H and notice this, too. Give more food and they’ll be milkable.

Give more food in terms of animal feed or what to give them? Or just expand the pen so they have more space with grass?  
I just gave them animal feed, but they didn’t start producing milk until I expanded the pen.

I smash the haystack on field and put the hay on the ground where the cow stands.

edit: Cows are reset to not full when they’re out of reality bubble for some time. (the detail can be found out in the github commit that implements animal eating)

Well, when the hay runs out, where can we get it? Is it a renewable resource in terms of production other than breaking up haystacks?

There are many haystacks on those big farms. The map is also infinite, so infinite haystacks.

Yeah, it was certainly more convenient on the experimental version. You just build a big enough pen and enjoy endless milk)

Although I did find myself endless food. I have a portal relatively close to my base from which Yugg periodically emerges. Well, I just go there, kill, butcher, he gives me a decent amount of regular meat and fat. And I eat with pleasure)
