Animal pen to autofeed pack horses

This came up in the Discord chat some days ago - animals need to be fed, and because of that, you can't really leave your pack horse in the animal pen for extended periods of time. What if the animal pen was an area that automatically kept pets happy and fed and thus the pack horses wouldn't go wild?

1. Would a special charge exist for feeding the animals there?

2. And is there a way to build, in a claim area, an animal pen sort of area, private I mean?

Just shooting blanks here, as I dont know much about the animal pen system...

1. I don't think a special charge would be needed, since you have already expanded a claim and built an animal pen at that point. Can be explained by the animal just grazing in the pen.

2. Yes, you can build an animal pen through the claim system, but as of current it is not much but aesthetic. The pack horses need to be fed, so if you leave it there and log out, it might have gone wild by the time you log in next time. Thus it is not really an option to leave it there.

There could be an option to drop some Hay or fruits that horses eat. As long thats upkeep then the horses will stay happy in the pen.
