I assume that word is Import, if so, do you have a person assigned to the Animal Trader? They won't do any trading without a worker in them. Otherwise it looks setup correctly to me, you may just have to wait a little bit. They deliver animals once a month I believe.

Yes, I have. But it's been several months, but I still don't have any sheep.

Same issue here. Family assigned, got money, got pasture, but no sheeps.

Not sure if it's the reason, but you should set it to more 1 AND don't try to get lamb, they are not functioning as far as I know.

I usually set up the animal pasture area and the animal farm house first. Then try to buy the sheep by setting the limit number to the same amount as my available space. With at least 1 worker at the animal trader, they will keep filling the place up no problem.

Again, that last slot (lamb, right?), just disable it and see if it helps.

livestock trader. Build a pasture and a sheep farm first.

Do you have a sheep farm with a pasture?
I can't tell since it's not in english, but you do have it set to Import not Export?

I had to increase the families working on animals trader from 1 to 2.
I waited 1 year with everything else, but only this trick got me some sheep.

Yes I have both pasture and house and trader and have workers in each bulding.

Going off your screenshot, you don't have enough money to buy sheep. They cost 30 gold a head and you only have 10. Unless I'm missing something.

Oh yes that is the case too. Another thing, according to the official tips & tricks thread above: the traders will hold 2 sheep at the trading house and they won't go to the pasture unless you order more. So, put the limit to something higher than 2 maybe?
