The lights don't effect it.

You are wrong, while i haven't gone in-depth testing with the lights, as soon as i swapped normal lights for red lights in my animal place they bred, and im never that lucky.

Animals only show pregnant after halfway through it, so if it happened right after they were pregnant beforehand.

Or they just did it randomly, as that's how it is currently.

Just because you have one female, and one male, does not guarantee they will breed. Just like in the real world.

Story of my life :(

Actually that happens pretty much for me multidad. I had both females give birth basically on the same day, dem alpacas. And this is just from having a farm, not even roofed so no lamps.

Oh god, the red light was a joke guys. Y'know "mood lighting"? It doesn't do anything, I swear.

For those who didn't get the joke, I imagine they were desperately trying to make the animals their own red light district.
I like how this game can result in quotes that would be quite unnerving when said in public, out of context. - Myself

I have to wonder, can not find it in the xml files, did tynan program in mating seasons?

Many many animals only mate once a year. 

I ponder this as my muffalo herd, 2males, 6 females, had not produced any offspring for over a year in game.... then come early spring, all my females were pregnant withing days of each other.

Now that may explain it for some animals, it is entirely possible some animals might only breed in a certain season.
