Sheep Shack
Hey Farmers,
The Sheep Shack has arrived in FarmVille 2!
Use this new building to store your Prized Sheep and feed them all with a single click! If that wasn’t enough, Prized Sheep in the Shack will only require half the Feed and you also gain an additional +25 Feed Capacity.
If you are level 9 or higher, you will see the following pop-up. Click on “Place Sheep Shack” to get started.
Building
the Sheep Shack
Your first step is collecting construction parts. You will need the following
items to start building your Sheep Shack:
- Sheep Railings
- Crooks
- Sod
Click on the “Ask” button to send requests for Crooks and Sod 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 Sheep Shack is almost complete, you will need a little help from your Neighbors to finish the job. The Sheep Shack requires 4 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 Sheep Shack
Click on the Sheep Shack to open the main
menu.
Inside the Sheep Shack you will see placements that you can fill with Prized Sheep. Prized Sheep will take up one spot in your Shack regardless of breed (see below: White Sheep).
Adding & Removing Sheep
To add Prized Sheep in the Shack, check the “Auto Fill” box and click on the green “Add Prized Sheep” button. All of your Prized Sheep will automatically jump into the Shack!
Note: The "Auto Fill" box will only be visible if there are Prized Sheep on your Farm.
To remove a Prized Sheep from the Shack, 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 Sheep cards have symbols on them to indicate different things:
A. Minus
Symbol: Remove Sheep
B. Feed: How much Feed the Sheep will consume
C. Fleece: How much Sheep Cheese the Sheep will produce (see
below: Feeding).
Feeding
Prized Sheep stored in the Shack will eat half of the amount of Feed they normally do. For example, a Sheep that eats 8 Feed outside of the Shack will eat 4 Feed when inside the Shack. Note: Any Prized Sheep that would normally eat an odd amount of feed outside of the Sheep Shack will be rounded up by one. For example, a Sheep that would normally eat 9 Feed will only need 5 Feed when stored in the Sheep Shack.
Golden Fleece
Each time you harvest the Sheep Shack you have a chance of finding 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: Clicking on the Golden Fleece will automatically add it to your Inventory.
Tip: Fill up your Sheep Shack for a greater chance of finding more Golden Fleeces!
Additional Information:
- Once your Sheep Shack is completed, you now have +25 Feed Capacity!
- The timer for your Sheep Shack will pause when placed in Storage, and then resume once placed back on your farm.
- If you do not wish to use the Sheep Shack 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 Shack.
- You are limited to one Sheep Shack per farm.
- Rotate the Shack to view a different angle!
