Hi everyone. I play on Xbox and I am running into a problem with my farm animals. My animals, mostly my sheep, keep despawning in my pens when the chunk is unloaded (either by traveling really far away or reloading the save). They are in a 8x17 pen (saw that they can't move past 20 blocks so this pen gives them ~19 blocks diagonally), I've given them food, and I have named them with name tags. The only other thing I've seen that I haven't tried yet is maybe to play in online mode. When my farm is at the population I want it at, there is about 40 animals. Any help would be appreciated.

I think you can just put a ticking area over the spot, and that should fix the problem, or make sure not to overcrowd the pens.
