I'd have linked it to his courtship of Eiritha, specifically to fighting off her other suitors. That would be the earliest time he really needed to go nuts. One of the suitors is often identified as Ragnaglar, though Praxian bullmen might disagree on that because their stories of the Devil are about Vrak Kargl Vozn. In any case, it might have been a case of escalation: the Bull won the cow by going berserk and the Goat got revenge by going chaotic.
The speculation on this list seems to say it's more likely linked to a rune or to some primal berserkerosityness. I don't see why that should be. Why are clouds fluffy? Because they are linked to the Fluff rune? Because they have a link to Primal Fluffiness? Nah. It's because of that time that Orlanth went hunting and . . . etc.
I suspect I'm in the minority on that opinion, though.
