Realistic Livestock RM V1.2.6.0 FS25
Realistic Livestock RM V1.2.6.0 FS25
Replaces FS25’s simple animal clusters with individually tracked animals – each with unique genetics, breeding, diseases, and production traits. A maintained version of Arrow-kb’s Realistic Livestock mod.
Every animal is tracked separately with its own identity, genetic makeup, health status, and production output. Genetics are inherited through breeding, diseases can spread and require treatment, and production is driven by each animal’s individual traits.
This is a maintained version of the original Realistic Livestock mod by Arrow-kb, who has discontinued development. The goal is to keep the mod working, fix bugs, and make improvements where needed.

V1.2.6.0
– Herdsman automation tasks (preview): a new Herdsman tab where you build tasks that sell, buy, castrate, name, AI-inseminate, or move filter-matched animals across your pens automatically each day – fully multiplayer-synced.
– Trailer transfers in the RL Menu: load and unload livestock trailers from the menu – move animals at a pen, buy/sell straight into a held trailer at the dealer, or load loose horses out in the world.
– More accurate breeding: pregnancies now track each animal’s gestation period and young animals grow over their proper age range, especially at higher days-per-period settings.
– Goats fixed in the genetics overview: they now correctly show milk production instead of wool, across the menu, info dialog, and on-foot look-at panel.
– Multiplayer fix: RL Menu settings now sync to the server and persist across save/reload, instead of being silently lost on dedicated servers.
