gay goats?
does anyone else have a problem breeding goats? it might just be bad luck but even with 2 adult male goats and one adult female goat i never seem to get baby goats.. same ratio produced full stock of other animals...

Might be bad luck? A ratio of 2 female goats to 1 male goat would be better.

i'm trying to get more young goats and a better ratio but i swear the game won't spawn the wild ibex's i need at the right time.... totally just random bad luck i'm sure, but i don't want to go bronze age without a stable pop of animals lol

So you're literally hinging your age progression on a single female goat?

like i said, i can't find any other young female goats/ibex on the map when i need them and when i do i find one by the time i tame it my males are old... its weird, been happening for many years now... i'm sure it's just terrible luck though

I'm currently running my first civ well beyond its use-by date to try to get the 200-pop achievement. I don't have a single goat. My livestock is all pigs, sheep, donkeys and horses. I would suggest, save your game and just see what happens if you civ up without having the goats. Get the tech for the other livestock and just run with what you can find. That's assuming you're on normal difficulty; I haven't tried hardcore yet.

My goats are breeding like ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ rabbits, i'm trying to exterminate their population sometimes but it seems like they just breed another horde of goats soon after.

You can set a max number of animals in the Limits tab.

lots of meat and leather you got there hehehe >:) if you got a population boom try and cull some of the males, with fewer males around you should have a stable population unless that one male is a horny bastard and has his sweet time with all the lady goats
