This mod was amazing before I got to mid game, earning enough money to actually be able to farm and afford getting more barns/coops. Then it came to the pigs. Which are supposed to be mid/late game to help you earn more. The imbalance is extremely irritating. I take blame for not paying attention to the mod description before downloading, but it absolutely killed this mod for me. I would rather grind hard than buy 16k pigs for them to just give me 183g per oil. That's anticlimactic and hurts the soul. I wouldn't recommend this mod unless you uninstall it before selling truffle oil.
// Average profits from cultivation and processing of wine in casks and kegs of 116 cells each year. It comprises between 1,690,816 - 3,321,780 taking crops in 116 squares that animals occupy in:
We know that there are a total of 15 days of rain per year and 28 days of winter, 43 days x 24 animals x 50 (Price of hay), 51.600 that must be added to the total profits, leaving:
Average earnings between 1,742,416 - 3,373,380, leaving daily earnings of 15,578.7 - 30,140.9
Taking the average per animal (24 animals) the average profit per animal per day is 649.1 - 1,255.9 to equate agriculture to livestock.
I actually enjoyed being an animal farmer for once instead of a giant horde of ancient fruit like the farm always goes. I don't know how many people use this mod, but it has been a must-install for me... shame that you don't really get a lot of comments on it.
However, I don't agree with the recent nerf. Animals require SO MUCH space compared to farming and I just feel like it went backwards against the spirit of the mod too much. It is fine to balance it and all but the name of the mod is animals but GOOD, right? You don't want to make the game ez cow mode but make it worth my space to put a fence up don't be vanilla +2g
For example the cheese is 283 or something 28x at gold star with Artisan profession and 483 without this mod. Lol! Ranching is literally more profitable without this mod. How is it good? This used to be a must install but whatever you did recently really sucks pretty much all the prices are messed up and actually worse in some situations but definitely not better enough in most to be qualified as "good"
I liked this mod because raising animals per square was not worth it compared to crops but now it is less worth it which is depressing because I like keeping animals

The pigs don't deserve this nerf.
- Grass: 48 (2 per animal)
- Pig farm: 7x4 + 7x1 gate
- Bird farm: 6x3 + 6x1 gate
- Silos: 3x3
