At first the breeding pen was working fine, then all of a sudden I’m having problems where the pals don’t care for the breeding pen and just simply leave.

I double checked that the entire pen was within the base boundaries and that the parent pals weren’t hungry or have any ailments.

Any idea what may be the issue?

    Dedicated breeding bases seem to help. The game starts to screw up more and more as you progress. I have noticed when the server tick rate plummets Pals start acting extra durpy.

      The base I have is just the breeding pen, incubators, ranch (for eggs and milk), and berry farms. Should I move the cake making stuff to a different base?

        Everything else needs to moved out. It’s stupid I know but the less the Ai has to think the better.

    Does it still say the pal is assigned to the pen?

    I have had it before where one pal Sayed in the pen, while the other wandered around the base doing nothing but still was assigned to the pen, consuming cakes, and making eggs.

      No, for whatever reason even when the target says the pal can be assigned at the breeding pen it just won’t stick.
      Instead the pal goes to sleep for a few seconds and then it runs off.

      Then at the breeding pen it will say 0/1 for the parent, so no egg making.
