I don't know the exact time but it was about a day that my female took (it could have been 24 hours, or even 47.5 hours). If she's taking longer that sounds like a bug.

Thanks Arnie.A day sounds right.She is now pregnant with her third child.

Her third? I can't get my tribe to have more than one! Despite building another hut, I still get the message that they've reached the population limit.

It was an accident,i was putting her to work gathering coconuts,and put her with the male insted of the tree.That happened all three times.I have six huts.

I've got three huts, plus one large one. Only five villagers, though. The kid has now almost grown up (he's 17). I still get the message that I'm at the population limit, though!

I hope the developers fix the bug soon or my original villagers will start to die of old age.

Im getting the same message,now.

Alan, I think if they die you can resurrect them. Remember the two things on the top right hand side; one is smite but I can't remember the name of the other.

Only thing, at this rate my kid will be too old to father when one of the older ones dies.

Margi,

Yes, I realise they could be resurrected (assuming that's not buggy - I've seen reports of problems in the FB forum about that). However, if a peep dies of old age, is there much point? Or do we get to choose a completely new peep as happened when the skeleton was resurrected earlier? Even if they could be resurrected in their twenties it would simply prolong things until we lose interest.

I'm thinking of smiting one of my least favorite old guys before the kids get too old to procreate...
