Sheep get one 40% pregnancy chance on the first day of Autumn when breeding conditions are met. A Lamb takes 360 game days to become an adult, so buy adults if you need Wool sooner.
Sheep breeding: what to do next
- Keep Sheep in accepted pasture with space and assigned livestock workers.
- Check the animal panel after the first day of Autumn; pregnancy is a chance, not a guaranteed Lamb every year.
- If you need a larger adult flock soon, buy Sheep and prepare winter Feed rather than relying on one birth.
Why this happens
The flock has one seasonal pregnancy opportunity, and the listed chance is below certainty even when the requirements are met. A Lamb also needs a long growth period before becoming an adult Sheep. Buying an adult is the more dependable route when the next season needs Wool.
How to know it worked
The animal panel may show pregnancy or a later Lamb after the autumn check; a missed chance alone does not mean the flock is broken.
Why did my Sheep have no Lamb this autumn?
Check the pasture, workers and animal panel, but remember the autumn pregnancy chance can fail even with a prepared flock.
