“The Goat Nursery” Guide!

26 June 2013 FarmMaster 0

The Goat Nursery

The Goat Nursery Feature is broken up into three consecutive development stages (quest sets) that you can complete at your own pace.

The Goat Nursery is here! Use this building to raise your baby goats to develop their personality and train them to produce extra resources!

If you are level 12 or higher, you will see the following pop up. Clicking on “Place Building” will give you the ability to place the Nursery Frame on your Farm.

Before you can start raising your baby goats, you will need to build your Nursery. Your first step is collecting Building Materials. You will need the following items to start building your Goat Nursery:

Toy Goats
Goat Bedding
Yellow Paints

To Collect Toy Goats, click on the “post” button to post to your Facebook wall; you will get the parts when your friends click on it, or when you click on a similar newsfeed post.

Click on the “Ask” button to send requests for Goat Bedding and Yellow Paints to your Neighbors. If you do not wish to wait for your friends, you can skip any of these tasks for Farm Bucks.

Once you have collected the required items, click on the “start building” button at the bottom of the construction menu.

Now that the Nursery is almost complete, you will need a little help from your Neighbors to finish the job. The Goat Nursery requires four additional helpers, so click on the “Ask Friends” button to send some crew requests to your Friends. When they accept, you will see the spots in the Build Menu begin to fill. If you do not wish to wait for your friends, click the “Hire One” button to purchase helpers with Farm Bucks.

Using your Goat Nursery (Development Quests)

Raising a baby goat requires love, affection, and special attention. That’s why the Goat Nursery is here to help you! The Nursery is broken up into three development stages (quest sets): Name Your Goat, Choose a Specialty, and Choose a Personality. Each development stage (quest set) has three tasks that have to be completed. As you complete each development stage, you will unlock the next stage.

Once your Nursery is up, you will need to place one baby goat inside. Click on the Goat Nursery to open the Quest Menu.

Development Quests – Name Your Goat

The first step is to name your baby goat. You can use up to 14 characters (with spaces):

Once you have typed in a name, click the green “Confirm” button, then the page will turn, and the next page will be your first set of development quests. Click on the “Make it” button for the recipe you wish to Craft and you will be sent to your Kitchen and/or Workshop.

As you finish parts of your quest, a blue “Feed,” “Play,” or “Groom” button will appear to indicate what parts of the quest you have collected. The first development stage is as follows:

Once you have collected the required items, click on the blue “Feed,” “Play,” and “Groom” buttons to watch your avatar train your baby goat! A green check mark will appear for each task you have completed. Once you have performed all three of the tasks, click the turquoise “Complete & Share” button.

Development Quests – Choose a Specialty

The next step is to pick a Specialty for your baby goat. You can choose between a Fertilizer Bonus and a Milk Bonus (you will receive one extra Fertilizer or Milk every time you feed the Adult goat). Note: You can only choose one Specialty per baby goat.

Once you have selected a Specialty, click the green “Confirm” button to turn the page to the next set of development quests. Click on the “Make it” button for the recipe you wish to Craft and you will be sent to your Kitchen and/or Workshop.

The second development stage is as follows:

As you have collected the required items, click on the blue “Feed,” “Play,” and “Groom” buttons to watch your avatar train your baby goat! Once you have performed all three of the tasks, click the turquoise “Complete & Share” button.

Development Quests – Choose a Personality

The final step is to pick a Personality for your baby goat. You can choose between Grumpy, Sleepy, and Playful. The Personality you pick will determine how your baby goat will behave once it is an adult (e.g. animate). Note: You can only choose one Personality per baby goat.

Once you have selected a Personality, click the green “Confirm” button to turn the page to the final set of development quests. Click on the “Make it” button for the recipe you wish to Craft and you will be sent to your Kitchen and/or Workshop.

The third and final development stage is as follows:

Congratulations! You have raised your baby goat into an Adult that will produce an extra resource! Click your goat to move and place it on your farm:

Once you have moved your Adult Goat to the farm, a cooldown timer will indicate how much time remains until you can raise another baby goat. If you wish to see how much time you have left, simply hover over the Nursery.

Crop Packets

For a limited time only, you can earn special Orange Sherbet Carnation Crop Packets! In order to earn these Packets, you must raise all three types of Goat Personalities (Grumpy, Sleepy, and Playful). As you raise each type of Personality, a green check mark will appear on the cards to indicate what parts of the mini quest have been completed.

Once you have raised all three types of Personalities, you will unlock the Orange Sherbet Carnation Crop Packet! You will be able to use this Crop for 14 days. Click the turquoise “Share Carnations” button to share some rewards with friends!

Note: You have limited time to earn the Orange Sherbet Carnation Crop Packet. If you do not raise all three types of the Goat Personalities within the allotted time, the Crop Packet will disappear and you will be unable to claim it.

Additional Information:

You can only use baby goats with the Nursery.
You can re-use the Nursery to raise as many goats as you’d like.
If you do not wish to use the Goat Nursery feature, it can be sold (frame only) or stored in your Inventory.
You are limited to three Goat Nurseries per Farm. You can purchase up to two more Goat Nurseries from the General Store for Coins and Farm Bucks.

The Horseshoe Press Guide!

21 June 2013 FarmMaster 0

Introducing, the Horseshoe Press! Marie is completing a special horseshoe collection on her farm and she needs your help. Assist Marie with her collection by recycling old Horseshoes to earn the exclusive Blue Roan Horse!

If you are level 10 or higher, you will see the following pop-up. Click on “Place your Horseshoe Press” to get started.

Building the Horseshoe Press

Your first step is collecting construction parts. You will need the following items to start building your Horseshoe Press:

Brass Armbars
Granite Bricks
Cast Iron Pots

To collect Brass Armbars, click on the “Post” button to post to your Facebook wall – you will get the parts when your friends click on it, or when you click on a similar newsfeed post.

You can also purchase any of these items above for Farm Bucks if you do not wish to wait for your friends to respond to your requests or newsfeed posts.

Note: You can post and send requests for materials to your Friends every 18 hours.

Once you have collected the required items, click on the “Start Building!” button at the bottom of the construction Menu.

Now that the Horseshoe Press is almost complete, you will need some assistance from your Neighbors to finish the job. The Horseshoe Press requires four additional helpers, so click on the “Ask Friends” button to send some crew requests to your Friends. When they accept, you will see the spots in the Build Menu begin to fill. If you do not wish to wait for your friends, click the “Hire One” button to purchase crew members with Farm Bucks.

Once you have successfully filled all four spots, click on the “Finish & Share” button.

Using the Horseshoe Press

You must have at least five Adult Horses on your farm that are not Prized for the Press to be functional. When you feed your Horses, they will drop Horseshoes, which can be found in the “Ingredients” section of your Inventory.

Tip: Limited Edition Horses produce more Horseshoes when fed!

To see your Horseshoe count, click on the Horseshoe Press to open the main menu. Your Horseshoe total is located on the left-hand side of this screen. The number at the bottom of the Horseshoe indicates how many you currently have in your Inventory.

Once you have collected at least five Horseshoes, you will be able to recycle them by clicking on the blue “Recycle” button from the Horseshoe Press menu.

Special Horseshoes

To earn the Blue Roan Horse, you will need to collect special types of Special Horseshoes. To get these Special Horseshoes, all you need to do is keep recycling old Horseshoes!

There are three types of Special Horseshoes you can receive:

Copper (collection requires 6)
Aluminum (collection requires 4)
Titanium (collection requires 2)

These Horseshoes are not used for Crafting like Sheets of Metal. Instead, they are automatically added to your Horseshoe Collection. To earn the Blue Roan Horse, you will need to have 6 Copper, 4 Aluminum, and 2 Titanium (12 total) Horseshoes in your Collection. Once you have collected these, you can trade them in for the Blue Roan Horse!

The more Adult Horses you have on your Farm, the better your chances are of receiving Special Horseshoes!

If you do not want to wait to collect the Special Horseshoes, you can use Farm Bucks to skip these steps and get the new baby Blue Roan Horse right away!

Your new Blue Roan Horse needs baby bottles to reach adulthood, just like your other animals. Once it has matured, it will produce Horseshoes.

Additional Information:

Minimum of Five Adult Horses (non Prized) on any given farm is required to use the Horseshoe Press.
If you do not wish to use the Horseshoe Press feature, it can be sold (frame only) or stored in your Inventory.
The timer at the top of your Horseshoe Press Menu indicates how long you have to collect the baby Blue Roan Horse. If you do not collect it, the prize will disappear and you will be unable to claim it.
You can collect the baby Blue Roan Horse as many times as you wish during this time.
If you want to see how much time you have left to claim the baby Blue Roan Horse, hover your cursor over the Press.
Limited to one Horseshoe Press per farm.
If you lack any requirements (such as not having enough Horses), the game will tell you what you are missing.
Rotate the Press to view a different angle!

Farmers!

Recipes.

Note: Your first
Real CA Cow will not count towards your Animal Maximum Capacity.
Additional Real CA Cows can be purchased in the General Store; each additional
Cow will count towards the Animal max cap.

Rabbit Burrows Guide!

2 May 2013 FarmMaster 0

Introducing, Rabbit Burrows! Feed
Rabbits to help them dig underground tunnels from the Rabbit Warren and pop out
of Burrows on your Farm. Get all four Burrows to unlock an exclusive Purple Dragon Carrot Crop Packet!

Note:
We are gradually rolling the Rabbit Burrows feature out to all players
over the next week, so please be aware that you may not have this
feature right away. We are very excited to get this out to all of our
players as soon as possible, and we appreciate your patience.

If you are level 11 or higher, you will see the following
pop-up. Click on “Feed & Win” to get started.

What is that cute
Rabbit doing? Click the Burrow below the arrow (left side of the hay bales) to
see what is inside:

Using the Rabbit Burrow

The Rabbit Burrow
feature has four stages. Each stage requires a certain amount of Rabbit
Feedings. When you feed your Rabbits, they will fill your Rabbit tunnel. Once
your tunnel is full, you can harvest the Rabbit Burrow to the left of
the hay bales for a new Burrow.

To see your tunnel, click on the Rabbit Burrow to open the
main menu. Your tunnel is located on the bottom of this screen. The number at
the bottom of the Tray indicates how many Rabbit Feedings you need and your
current progress towards this goal.

Below
are the four Rabit tunnel stages and the Rabbit Feeding requirements (180
total):

Stage 1: 30 Rabbit Feedings

Stage 2: 40 Rabbit Feedings

Stage 3: 50 Rabbit Feedings

Stage 4: 60 Rabbit Feedings

Once you have fed
enough Rabbits, you will be able to harvest your Burrow by clicking on it.

The more Rabbits you have on the farm and the more
Speed-Feed you use to feed them, the faster you fill your tunnel! In addition,
feeding Prized Rabbits counts twice!

If you do not want to wait to fill the Rabbit tunnel, you
can use Farm Bucks to skip these steps and get the next Burrow right away!

Each of the four Rabbit Burrows is moveable. Use the edit
tool to get started:

Note: The
Rabbit Burrow on the left side of the hay bales is not movable (see image
below). This Burrow will disappear once the Rabbit Burrow timer has expired.

Purple Dragon Carrot Crop Packet

Once you have earned
all four of your Rabbit Burrows, you can claim your Purple Dragon Carrot Crop
Packet! The Purple Dragon Carrot is used in high value recipes in the
Crafting Kitchen, and Prized Purple Dragon Carrots are worth more points at the
County Fair.

Click the “Share and
Go to Market” to purchase your first Packet for Coins.

Additional Information:

You have 9
days to earn the four Rabbit Burrows.
If you want to see how much time
you have left to claim your Burrows, hover your cursor over the Burrow to the
left of the hay bales.
You are limited to four Rabbit
Burrows per farm.
Feeding Horses, Cows,
Sheep, Goats, and Chickens does not count towards the Rabbit Burrow.
Only feeding Rabbits will count.

Rabbit Warren Guide!

1 May 2013 FarmMaster 0

Hey Farmers,

The Rabbit Warren has arrived in FarmVille 2!

You can store your Prized Rabbits in this home and feed them all with a single click! If that was not enough, Prized Rabbits in the Warren will only require half the amount of Feed & Speed-Feed, and will produce Golden Fleece.

If you are level 11 or higher, you will see the following pop-up. Click on “Place Rabbit Warren” to get started.

Building the Rabbit Warren:

Your first step is collecting construction parts. You will need the following items to start building your Rabbit Warren:

Blue Paint
Rabbit Bedding
Rabbit Trough

To collect Blue Paint, click on the “Post” button to post to your Facebook wall – you will get the parts when your friends click on it, or when you click on a similar newsfeed post.

Click on the “Ask” button to send requests for Rabbit Bedding and Rabbit Troughs to your Neighbors. If you do not wish to wait for your friends, you can skip any of these tasks for Farm Bucks.

Note: You can send a request for materials to your Friends every 18 hours.

Once you have collected the required items, click on the “Start Building!” button at the bottom of the construction Menu.

Now that the Rabbit Warren is almost complete, you will need a little help from your Neighbors to finish the job. The Rabbit Warren requires four additional mechanics, so click on the “Ask Friends” button to send some crew requests to your Friends. When they accept, you will see the spots in the Build Menu begin to fill. If you do not wish to wait for your friends, click the “Hire One” button to purchase crew members with Farm Bucks.

Using the Rabbit Warren:
Your Prized Rabbits will enter the Warren through a tree stump, but live underground. Click on the Rabbit Warren to open the main menu.

Inside the Rabbit Warren, you will see placements that you can fill with Prized Rabbits. Prized Rabbits will take up one spot in your Warren regardless of breed (see below: Cottontail Rabbits).

Adding & Removing Rabbits:

To add Prized Rabbits in the Warren, check the “Auto Fill” box and click on the green “Add Prized Rabbits” button. All of your Prized Rabbits will automatically hop into the Warren!

To remove a Prized Rabbit from the Warren, open the main menu and click on the red “–“ (minus symbol) box on the bottom left hand corner of the placement slot (see below: A).

The Rabbits cards have symbols on them to indicate different things:

A. Minus Symbol: Remove Rabbits
B. Feed: How much Feed the Rabbits will consume
C. Fine Rabbit Wool: How much the Rabbits will produce (see below: Feeding).

Feeding:

Prized Rabbits stored in the Warren will eat half of the amount of Feed they normally do. For example, a Rabbit that eats 8 Feed outside of the Warren will eat 4 Feed when inside the Warren. Note: Any Prized Rabbit that would normally eat an odd amount of feed outside of the Rabbit Warren will be rounded up by one. For example, a Rabbit that would normally eat 9 Feed will only need 5 Feed when stored in the Rabbit Warren. Prized Rabbits in the Warren also only require one Speed-Feed for every two Prized Rabbits.

Golden Fleece:

Each time you harvest the Rabbit Warren you will find a Golden Fleece, which can be used in exclusive Crafting Workshop Recipes. Golden Fleece will linger on your farm similar to Prized Crops, so be on the lookout for them after feeding. Note: Fill your Rabbit Warren all the way to get the most Golden Fleece when you harvest!

Note: Clicking on the Golden Fleece will automatically add it to your Inventory.

Additional Information:

The timer for your Rabbit Warren will pause when placed in Storage, and then resume once placed back on your farm.
If you do not wish to use the Rabbit Warren feature, it can be sold (frame only) or stored in your Inventory.
If you want to see how much time you have left to harvest, hover your cursor over the Warren.
You are limited to one Rabbit Warren per farm.
Rotate the Warren to view a different angle!

If you are level 10 or higher, you will see the following pop-up. Click on “Place Bee Box” to get started.

Building the Bee Box

Your first step is collecting construction parts. You will need the following items to start building your Bee Box:

Honeycomb Rack
Brown Paint
Nails

If you do not wish to wait for your friends to respond to your requests or newsfeed posts, you can purchase any of these items above for Farm Bucks

Note: You can post and send requests for materials to your Friends every 18 hours.

Once you have collected the required items, click on the “Start Building!” button at the bottom of the construction Menu.

Now that the Bee Box is almost complete, you will need a little help from your Neighbors to finish the job. The Bee Box requires four additional mechanics, so click on the “Ask Friends” button to send some crew requests to your Friends. When they accept, you will see the spots in the Build Menu begin to fill. If you do not wish to wait for your friends, click the “Hire One” button to purchase crewmembers with Farm Bucks.

Once you have successfully filled all four spots, click on the “Finish & Share” button.

Using the Bee Box

When you harvest your Crops, they will drop Pollen, which is a new type of resource that can only be used with this feature.

Note: Once you place and harvest your Bee Box for the first time, you will have 30 days to claim all five Beehives and one Beekeeper Suit. After 30 days, you can purchase up to five Beehives from the General Store and one Beekeeper Suit from the Avatar Customizer. Keep in mind that you can onlyhave up to five Beehives and one Beekeeper Suit total on any given farm.

Collected Pollen will be automatically added to your Pollen Tray with the help of Bees! Once your Tray is full, you can harvest the Bee Box for Honey.

To see your Tray, click on the Bee Box to open the main menu. Your Tray is located on the left-hand side of this screen. The number at the bottom of the Tray indicates how much Pollen you need to collect and your current progress towards this goal.

Additionally, you can also see your progress by hovering your mouse over the Box to display the green progress bar.

Once you have collected the necessary amount of Pollen, you will be able to harvest your Box by clicking on it. When you harvest your Box, you will always produce Honey. Honey can be used to fill Beehives for Fertilizing Bees, as well as for Crafting.

Note: Any Honey you produce will be automatically added to the “All” section of your Inventory.

Honeycombs & Rewards

To earn the Beehives, you will need to collect special types of Honeycombs. To find these Special Honeycombs, all you need to do is keep harvesting your Crops! In addition to the Honey you earn every time you harvest the Box, you also have a chance of earning Special Honeycombs (referred to as “Honeycombs” in game).

There are three types of Special Honeycombs you can receive:

Amber (requires 2)
Orange (requires 2)
Golden (requires 1)

These Honeycombs are not used for Crafting. Instead, they are automatically added to your Honeycomb Collection. To earn all five Beehives, you will need to have five sets of 2 Amber, 2 Orange, and 1 Golden in your Honeycomb Collection (25 Honeycombs total). Once you have collected these, you can trade them in for up to five Beehives!

To earn the Beekeeper Suit, you will need to collect the full set of five Beehives. You will receive the Suit after you redeem the fifth Beehive.

Special Honeycombs linger on your farm similar to Prized Crops. Just click on the Honeycomb and it will be added to your Collection.

The more Crops you have on your Farm, the better your chances are of receiving Honeycombs!

Helpful Tip: Crop Packets produce more Pollen. For example, Red Hibiscus and Honeysuckles will produce Pollen roughly twice as often as other crops. See the “Crop Packets” section below for more details.

In addition to Honeycombs, harvesting the Box will give you additional XP points to help you level!

If you do not want to wait to collect the Honeycombs, you can use Farm Bucks to skip these steps and get the Beehive right away! You can also purchase Pollen directly.

Honey & Beehives

You can earn up to five Beehives total for each Honeycomb Collection you complete. In order to use the Beehive, fill the Hive with Honey (collected from the Bee Box), then you will be able to Fertilizer four of your Crops with Fertilizing Bees. See below on how to get started.

After you feed the Beehive with Honey, mouse over and click to use:

Four Bees will fly out of the Beehive. Use the pointer finger to select the four Crops you wish to Fertilizer (similar to using Farmhands). You can place bees only on watered crops that have not yet been fertilized.

If you want to see how much time you have remaining until you can use the Beehive again, hover your cursor over the Hive:

Note: You can place each Beehive on top of your Crops (see image below).

Beekeeper Suit

Once you have earned all five Beehives, you can claim your Beekeeper Suit! Walter will drop off your fifth Beehive, then he will remind you to try on your Suit.

Click the green “Will do” button to try on your new Suit using the Avatar Customizer. Once you have selected your new Suit, click the green “Save and Share” button and share this news with Friends!
