Manor Lords: How to Get Chicken and Goats
Chickens and goats are unique livestock in Manor Lords. They can't be imported at the Livestock Trading Post and can't be assigned to buildings. They are, instead, acquired by building Chicken Coops or Goat Sheds as extensions to houses (burgages) with a big enough plot to include a backyard.
Goats will provide a slow but steady supply of meat and hides, whilst Chickens will provide eggs.
And that's every livestock type in Manor Lords and how to get them! For more Manor Lords guides, check out a few of our write-ups below!
