How to Get Sheep in Civilization 6

In Civilization 6, sheep are a valuable resource that can provide food and production bonuses to your cities. This guide walks you through the essential steps to obtain and improve sheep resources in your civilization, from researching the necessary technology to constructing pastures that maximize their benefits.

Research Animal Husbandry

The first step to obtaining sheep in Civilization 6 is to research the Animal Husbandry technology. This tech is located in the early stages of the tech tree and is essential for working with livestock resources.

Open your tech tree by clicking on the tech tree icon in the top left of your screen. Look for Animal Husbandry in the available technologies and begin researching it.

Create a Builder

Once you’ve researched Animal Husbandry, you’ll need to construct a Builder unit. Builders are workers that improve tiles and resources on your map.

To create a Builder, click on your city to open its production menu. Look at the bottom right of the screen and select “Change City Production.” Navigate to the Units section and select Builder as your city’s next production item.

Wait for your city to complete the Builder unit before proceeding to the next step.

Locate and Improve Sheep Tiles

With your Builder ready, locate a sheep resource on your map. Sheep tiles typically appear as natural resources scattered across your territory.

Move your Builder to the sheep tile by selecting the Builder and clicking on the destination. Once your Builder is positioned on the sheep tile, look at the bottom right of the screen for the improvement options.

Build a Pasture

The final step is to construct a pasture on the sheep tile. Click on the pasture option in the bottom right menu while your Builder is on the sheep tile.

Your Builder will construct the pasture, and the sheep resource will now be improved and provide benefits to your nearby cities.

Summary

Obtaining sheep in Civilization 6 is a straightforward process: research Animal Husbandry, create a Builder unit, locate a sheep tile, and construct a pasture on it. Following these steps will enable you to harness the food and production benefits that sheep resources provide to your civilization’s growth and development.
