so how many nichelings do you guys get on average?
my tribe has been hovering between one and two hundred for awhile now, living on an auchapellago with lots of food.

20-30. I prefer to live on mountainous biomes, but if I'm on an easier island, sometimes the number shoots up to 40-50.

I tend to end up around 40-60. Too many more and I start getting bored of turns taking so long, but I always seem to end up with a lot of them without realising it.

On average I like 20-30 as well, my numbers can go up to 80-100 but I prefer smaller tribes so 20-30 is usually perfect, except if I split up the groups, then the groups are around 20-30 but there may be up to three or four of them :)

I can't even imagine 200 Nichelings :0

Around 10, because I make a tribe every 5 minutes and delete the old one

I usually average around 20 nichelings in my tribes. I like to keep my tribes fairly small.

well my nomadic tribes get about 15 nichelings, so its easier to move.

my more clan-like tribes (depending the island) i normally get about 30-40

on some of my random, just-for-fun tribes i get about 20-30

The average for me is around 100-200, because I only succeed in surviving areas with lots of berry bushes, I always expand my mountain or savannah tribes too quickly and they die off from starvation... ;u;

it's mainly a side-effect of the auchipellago islands i think. i didn't want to let the population of the first island die off so i kept breeding them and so on, and eventually one island has immunity genes that others didn't have, so i had to breed up more to migrate to other islands, and they all have water body and slowly gaining fishing tail, so i'm breeding up more so some will be able to go into the ocean to collect food and nesting body etc.

on a group of eight islands, one hundred and fifty creatures is really only like, eighteen per island, so it's easy to think "this island needs more" and accidently wind up with twenty babies born in thre same turn.

Nice to see I'm not the only one lol

i peaked today at 171 individual nichelings. Trying to make it so babies are only ever born every other day, but even that doesn't seem to be helping out too much :P Fourtionately we're still making more food then we are babies, and with any luck we'll be off to a new island in a few generations.

20-35 if i'm lucky. If I have access to large, open areas, I usually grow my tribes quite big.
I vary considerably, but usually I go from 25-40

On my "super inbred tribe but can I really say that anymore" tribe, I have about 27 creatures right now (and in some desperate need of some females.) That's because the island is small and has a lot of berry bushes, so that explains the large population. But like I said, I like to start small tribes but delete them 0.3 seconds later ^^

i went up as high as 217 creatures on the auchepellago islands. now i'm on a swamp with around 60 creatures. honestly i find it hard to understand how you guys can get by with only 20 or 30 creatures.
