At the request of Zynga we have removed this article.

FarmVille Freak Cow is Friends with Zynga

UPDATE: The glitch associated with the farm cash purchasable Beehive has been patched and is no longer working. The glitch was patched on the evening of July 13th.

Due to legal concerns, we are obligated to remove content that is in violation of Zynga’s Terms of Service.

About this Glitch: The glitch allowed some farmers who purchased Beehive building supplies with farm cash, free 50 farm cash upon completion of their Beehives. This was only for those people who paid farm cash for Beehive supplies. THIS GLITCH IS NO LONGER WORKING.

FarmVille Horse Stable Not Producing!

UPDATE: This is a glitch that will be resolved when FarmVille “enhances” with tonight’s Updates. You will not have to do anything to restore the White Stallions functionality.

From FarmVille’s Community Manager, Grimwell:

“I’d like to thank everyone who has sent me their UID so far, and ask that nobody else does!
The development team has found the bug that is causing this issue with your stallions, and intend to have a fix for it later today. You will not have to do anything to restore functionality to your stallions, the update later today will care for it. Thank you for your patience, and special thanks to everyone who shared their ID’s so we could get a look!” (Source: Official FarmVille Forum)

Lots of FarmVille Freaks, such as FarmVille Freak Lisa, FarmVille Freak Julia, FarmVille Freak Pia, and FarmVille Freak Becky, among others are reporting that their White Stallions are no longer producing Foals!

As you know, the White Stallion was a special limited edition farm cash animal available only through a Mystery Box. Unlike other Wandering Stallions, the White Stallion is a permanent Horse Stable occupant and once purchased you are able to keep it forever. Owners of White Stallions have the advantage of being able to produce a Foal everyday. The ability to produce foals explains why the temporary “neutering” of White Stallions, has caused angry FarmVille Horse breeder enthusiasts and White Stallion owners.

We are waiting on an official response from Zynga and will keep you informed and updated as we learn more information about the questionable fertility of the White Stallion.

You can read some of our FarmVille Freak White Stallion owners’ user-submitted emails below:

“Hi FarmGoddess, After the introduction to the Beehives, I went on my farm to do my nightly ritual of horse breeding.  I have gone through 30 horses without any reproduction success (I would usually achieve one foal in every 3-5 horses).  Not only has this changed, but also the message that comes after you harvest your stable has changed (I have taken a screen shot & attached it for you to see).  For the past few days I have encountered issues while breeding (screen freezing, out of sync issues etc…).  I noticed that I used to collect a couple thousand coins each time I harvest without a Foal produced, but now the amount has gone down to about 168 coins.” – FarmVille Freak Lisa

“Hi, Since yesterday I can’t make foals in my stable. I have a White Stallion but it’s like he’s not there, I always got the message: “You didn’t find anything special in the stable, but you did earn 588 coins while tending to your horses. Tend to them again tomorrow for a chance to find something special.” Some people say the the White Stallions have been neutered. Have you heard something about this? I worried coz I paid farm cash for my Stallion… I paid to have the chance to make as many foals as I can in one day, this is not fair…” -FarmVille Freak Julia

“It seems they made changes to the harvest of Horse Stables, and make it like the Dairy Barns.You get no thank you and money anymore and rumors say you will only be able to harvest once a day. Maybe something to look into. As they release the black stallion (Gelding) in next mystery boxes, wonder what happen to the people who already have one. Regards.” -FarmVille Freak Pia”

“Can you find out what the problem is with our White Stallions not producing anymore…post something on your website plz….they are just like any other horse when you try to breed Foals…people on facebook wall are going crazy ” – FarmVille Freak Becky

Are you experiencing problems with your White Stallion, such as non-producing Foals?

FarmVille Beehives are here!

Lexilicious first told us about Bees coming to FarmVille in a FarmVille Podcast and tonight they finally made their debut to FarmVille.

FarmVille Beehive Notice

You will find one free Beehive in your FarmVille Gift Box. Placing it on your farm prompts more events, the first of which will allow you to share a notice via FaceBook newsfeed stating that you have started building your Beehive and that your FarmVille neighbors can send you free supplies. (All the free Beehive building supplies can be found here.)

FarmVille Beehive in Giftbox

FarmVille Congratulations Beehive Notice

Step 1: Build your Beehive

The Beehive and Bees will be a complex feature that will require you to first build your Beehive.

Building your Beehive will require the help of your neighbors similar to other buildings with purpose.You will need to collect 10 each of the following supplies to build your Bee Hive for a total of 50 supplies:

• Smoker (10)
• Bees Wax (10)
• Wooden Board (10)
• Brick (10)
• Nail (10)

FarmVille Honeybee Beehive Giftable

***Only two rotating Beehive gift supplies will be featured on the FarmVille Gifting Page at one moment. However, you can find all the supplies by using our handy FarmVille Freak Beehive Gifting Links located here.

You can obtain Beehive building supplies three ways:

1. For Free from your FarmVille neighbors via the Farmville Gifting Page.
2. Purchasing supplies directly from the FarmVille Market. (Supplies cost 1 FV$ each)
3. “Ask for More” option that you send to your selected neighbors. Use the “Ask For More” button, that is located when you “Look Inside” your Beehive and is found on each remaining supply icon.

Completing 10 of any building component will trigger the option to post a FaceBook newsfeed and allow you to share a supply with the first 10 of your neighbors during a 24 hour period. Reaching 25 items overall will allow you to share a newsfeed for a random building supply for your first 10 neighbors.Finally, completing your Beehive will also allow you to share a newsfeed for another building supply for the first 10 neighbors.

Step 2: Find or Purchase a Queen Bee & Build your Swarm of Bees

After completing your Beehive, you now have to build up your colony of Bees. Now that you have completed your Beehive, it is time to build a colony of bees. Before you can get started on your swarm of Bees you will need to find or purchase a rare Queen Bee.

Finding a Queen Bee (The Free Option):

• Queen Bees can be found when harvesting flower crops on your farm.
• Queen Bees can also be found when fertilizing flower crops on your Neighbor’s farms.
• If you find a Queen Bee you will receive a pop-up notifying you and the Queen Bee will automatically be added to your Beehive.
• You may only possess one Queen Bee per Beehive at any one time.
• If you find a Queen Bee and already are in possession of one, then you are allowed to share it via FaceBook newsfeed. Only one neighbor will be able to “adopt” the Queen Bee.

There are only 3 options for obtaining a Queen Bee for free:

1. Finding a Queen Bee on your farm when harvesting FLOWER crops.
2. Finding a Queen Bee when fertilizing a neighbor’s farm.
3. Adopting one via the FaceBook newsfeed share from a friend that has found a Queen Bee, but already possessed one

Purchasing a Queen Bee (Farm Cash):

• You may buy a Queen Bee from the Hive’s menu for 10 Farm Cash.

Step 3: Build your Colony of Bees

Once you have found your Queen Bee, at that point you can start producing your own swarm of Honeybees to pollinate your crops and receive special rewards!

Begin growing your colony by clicking “look inside” from your Hive’s menu.

Honeybees find pollinated seeds from fertilized crops. So, the more Honeybees that you own, the greater your chances of finding pollinated seeds.What is so special about Pollinated Seeds?

Pollinated seeds will be required to unlock special pollinated crops in the FarmVille Market! Pollinated crops have a higher chance at yielding bushels than normal crops do and Pollinated Crops’ bushels will last for 2 days.

Beehives can house a total of 200 Honeybees. In order to obtain Honeybees, you will have two options:

1. Purchasing Honeybees with Farm Cash

• You can purchase Honeybees from your Beehive’s menu by clicking on the “Buy Honeybees” button.
• 5 Honeybees can be purchased for 5 FV$ or farm cash

2. Honeybees as Gifts from Neighbors

• Your FarmVille neighbors can gift you Honeybees via the FarmVille Gifting Page.
• You may ask for Honeybees  by using the “Ask for Bees” button.

Tonight Beehives are now available. They can be built with the help of your neighbors you will need 50 building materials to finish your beehive, for more details click here.

After Finishing your Bee Hive you will need to find a Queen Bee:

“A Queen Bees can be found around flower crops on your farm or your friend’s farm.”

Or, purchase one for 10 $FV to start adding Honeybees to your hive.

FarmVille Inside Finished Beehive Information

After finding or purchasing a Queen Bee you will then be able to add Honeybees (available as a Free Giftable or in the FarmVille Market for FarmVille Cash) you can start building your colony! As with other ‘events’ like the Pot of Gold or Tuscan Wedding, there is a comparison tab, so you can easily check and see how many bees your neighbors have collected.

Your Beehive will grow in size and change after collecting 10, 25, 50, 100 and 200 Honeybees.

Note: After collecting 50, 100, and 150 Honeybees the Beehive splits, so players will eventually have 4 working Beehives.

FarmVille Beehive Progress

You will be able to harvest the Beehive once per day.

FarmVille Finished Beehive

Thank you to FarmVille Freak J-Chaves for finding these unreleased FarmVille Bee Hives! These seem to be the same bee hives that Lexilicious spoke about a few weeks back.

FarmVille Unreleased Bee Hive

We have some information about this upcoming feature which is subject to change up until its actual release. This new Bee feature will allow farmers to buy and harvest Bee Hives. You will use Bee hives to store Bees.  Bees are needed to work together with Bee Hives and produce honey. When harvested, Bee Hives yield Honey, coins,  and XP. Bees will be available through buying and gifting and will need Flowers to survive. You must grow Flowers on your farm for Bees to survive. Bees can also be adopted when visiting your neighbors’ farms.

Are you excited about this new Bee Hive and Bees upcoming feature?
