Baby Boom Event

Love is in the air: When it comes to breeding there's nothing but twins! One twin will follow the Farmerama rules of genetics and the other will be completely random. See for yourself!

Receive Extra animals when breeding in the Pastures
(Find out more about breeding coloured animals here: {FAQ} Coloured Animals)

During this time, all breedings harvested during the Event, should give TWINS.
This means that you'll get the animal you were supposed to get
PLUS a random coloured animal OR 2 normal animals.

Please relog to the game and check the event timer to be sure it’s already running before you harvest (especially when the timer displays 0h, meaning that there is less than 1h left from the event). The same procedure is needed when the event is about to end, to avoid harvesting outside the event.

If you have unlocked the Baby Boom Rune on the Skill Tree in the Glade, you may even get up to seven animals!

The breeding pastures can be started before the event is live, the event only has effect on harvesting the pasture. The Pastures need to be harvested after the start and
before the event ends to get the bonus babies.


You'll see that this Event is running, when you see this "Mobile Event Place" wandering from right to left in your City. Clicking on it will take you to the News page.

Mega-EP day

100% EP bonus: Stop by the bank today and buy either Barnyard Bills or Premium advantages to benefit from 24 hours of 100% more EP!

Any purchase of BBs at the Bank, will give you a +100% EP-Bonus on your Harvesting!


The buff is no longer displayed by Sid, but found in your Buff panel instead, above the crafting slots.

as a reminder:
On Mega EP days, if you make a BB-purchase in the Bank, or gain BBs from Cash-for-Action (video watching for example), this will entitle you to benefit from a +100% EP bonus for 24 hours, similar to the ones that can be won on the farmwheel.

PLEASE NOTE HOWEVER: There will NOT be a bonus for watching videos in the Cinema (for countries who have the cinema).

This bonus is not stackable if you buy 2x BBs during one Mega EP Day.

However, if you already have a bonus active on your farm, this bonus will be added to the one that you already have.

The payment method chosen must allow the BB-purchase to be finalized before the end-time for Mega EP Day.

**Please note**
Relog to the game after making such a purchase, to allow the system to display your buff correctly. Do not harvest if you cannot see the buff, inform us first!

After midnight CEST, the system resets and if you make another purchase - after this time and before the end of the event - you get another bonus. Effectively you can get 2 bonuses for the day and they stack.

If you don't get your +100%EP-Bonus after a purchase in the bank, please inform us, and we'll ask techies to check your purchase.

Mystery tree seedling event

All mystery-tree-seedlings look alike, but what they will turn into is a Mystery!


The mystery seedlings can be bought ONLY during the special event,
from either the billboard, or in the supply store, for 5 BBs each.

Once bought you'll find them in your Tree inventory.
You then 'plant' them on an empty square.

After 5 hours, it will be ready to transform into a Tree,
and will give you 200 EP when harvested.

Then after a few seconds it will change into a Tree.

This can be either a XL upgrade, a XXL upgrade
(please note these include the base, so if returned to inventory will split into base and upgrade),
a special or rare tree as can be seen here:

Exchanging

This is "how to" prepare the exchange you'd like:

even if this animated picture was taken during the very first exchange event,
the basics are still the same...

1. Select the item to trade away
2. Select the quantity to trade away
3. Select the Items that you'd like in exchange
4. Select the amount that you would like in return
5. Validate

It will cost you one license per item 'to offer'
If you exchange 10 items, it will cost you 10 trade/exchange licenses

* Where can I see the Exchanges that are being offered by other players?

Click on the "Browse" button on the left of the "Exchange" window, to see an Overview of all the offers made by farmers.
Then you'll see an overview like this (but probably with more offers):

As shown below: Eventually use the "search" function to look for a particular item.
(apparantly not active this time, sorry )

Items being offered are on the left (with arrow facing to the right)
the items they want are on the right (with arrow facing to the left)
there are 2 columns of offers on each page.


Make sure that you check the QUANTITIES of what is being offered and you are willing to donate to the exchange!

Then, if you agree to this exchange, click on the offer, and you'll be asked to confirm the exchange

WARNING:

Since you are also accepting to send some items back to the player offering,
you too will pay with License(s)!

for example:
if someone is exchanging 1 buddha for 3 pink guano farms
he would pay just 1 licence to give away the buddha
and "if" you accept,
you would pay 3 licences to give away the 3 guano farms
!!!

* Can I see if my offer has been accepted yet?

Yes!
Click on the "Display" button to see the Exchanges/Trades that you have offered.
If your offer does not show on that page, the offer has been accepted, and the items exchanged.

* Can I delete an offer I made?

yes.
Just click on "Display" my offers, then click on the exchange that you want to delete and you'll be asked to validate the deletion but you will not get back the license(s).

* What happens at the end of the Event, if no-one has accepted my exchange?

If no one accepts your trades then you will have to remove your offer in order to get your items and licenses back. There will be a grace period after the event for you to be able to do this.
