FarmVille Horse Stable Expansion Notice
Horse Stable Expansion is here!
You can now increase the capacity your Horse Stable for storage for Horses. Maximum storage capacity for expanded Horse Stables is now 40 horses. However, you will need to expand your stable a total of 4 times in order to achieve the final expansion, each time collecting a quantity of 10 of each building material.
Having more Horses will increase your chances of finding Arborists, Farmhands, and Foals.
To start your Horse Stable Expansion simply click on your stable and then click “Expand”. You will then be able to post a Facebook newsfeed that will let your neighbors know that you are expanding, and need their help for building supplies.
Once you complete your final stage of expansion, you will be able to post a Facebook newsfeed that says you have finished your expansion and up to 5 neighbors can receive a Gray Horse by clicking on your post.

FarmVille Horse Stable Expansion
To read all the details on Horse Stable Expansion, refer to FarmVille Community Manager Lexilicious,
“Horse Stable Expansion:
You can now expand your Horse stables to hold up to a total of 40 Horses! Your Horse stable can be expanded a total of 4 times. Each expansion will increase your stable capacity by 5 horses.
Each time you wish to expand, you will need 10 of each of the following stable parts.
- Wooden Boards
- Nails
- Bricks
- Horseshoes
- Harnesses
Clicking on share will post a feed to your wall informing your friends and Neighbors that you need materials to start expanding. When clicked, this will take your neighbor to the Free Gifts page where they can send you building materials for your expansion. When clicking “look inside” from your Horse Stables menu, you will now see a new “expand” button at the top of your Horse Stable information page. Clicking on the “expand” button will show you what you need to complete your Horse Stable expansion.
To start the expansion, open your Horse Stable and click on the “expand” button.As stated earlier, each time you wish to expand your Horse Stable, you’ll need 10 of each item. You can get these items one of two ways:
1. From neighbors via the Free Gifts menu.
Neighbors can send you the components you need to expand your Stable. Your Neighbors will be able to send you one of the five types of building components to help you expand your stable.Please note that the components displayed on the Free Gifts Page are randomized. As such, the components displayed on the Free Gifts Page may be different for each player. Each player should be able to send one component specific to the Horse Stable. When neighbors send you a building component, it works exactly like any other free gift. After you accept the gift it will appear in your gift box.
After clicking the “use” button under the gift it will automatically be added to your stable.2. Ask For More
When viewing the interior of your unfinished Horse Stable expansion, each component that you have not yet received 10 of has an ‘Ask For More’ button, that when clicked will take you to the Friend Selector page where you can select friends to send Gift Requests to for your chosen component.
3. Completing with Farm Cash
If at any time during your construction process you decide that you’d rather simply purchase the items required for expansion from the Market, you can do so. Once you receive 10 of any single building component, you’ll have the option to post a feed to your wall. The first ten neighbors to click this feed will receive a one of the same building component for their own construction. When you reach 25 items overall, you’ll receive pop-up that will allow you to post a feed to your wall. The first ten neighbors to click this feed will receive a random building component for their own expansion.
When you complete your expansion, you will receive a popup asking you if you’d like to share the news with your friends. Clicking the Share button on this popup will give you the option to post a feed to your wall that will give up to five neighbors who click on it a free Grey Horse.” (Source: Official FarmVille Forum)

Sweet! But let’s not forget the Dairy Farm, shall we? My cows need some more space too!
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 8:26 pm
Yet still nothing on the dairy expansion…
And what happened to the mastery buildings?
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 8:26 pm
don’t think it’s a good idea to expand cuz it’ll be harder to breed the foals
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 8:27 pm
yay!
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 8:27 pm
Bout’ damn time, but I would have preferred the dairy expansions first!
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 8:29 pm
I just want to expand my garden shed!!
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 8:29 pm
Awesome! Nearly 1/4 of the way done already. :]

Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 9:05 pm
how many horses will it hold now
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 9:06 pm
Can you expand it once or twice?
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 9:13 pm
I have expanded 3 times so far…five horses each time.
and it’s letting me try for a fourth.
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 9:32 pm
was just wondering if anyone is having trouble starting the expansion. I clicked on my horse stable and its not letting me expand it. Any ideas?
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 10:00 pm
@ 4. Notagoodidea….
I was thinking the same thing……of course if someone doesn’t mind leaving a bunch of horses outside the stable.
Or at the same time, if one fills their stable with rare horses then it will should actually be easier to get rare foals.
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 10:20 pm
can someone explain to me, we need to collect 50 items again? and what is the max capacity of storage?
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 10:32 pm
@ notagoodidea it wont be harder to produce them if you dont expand!! theres no where saying you have to
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 10:33 pm
i hope the nursery barn thing come soon, so i can grow my foals up to produce my own rare foals.. id say the nursery barn is next
Posted on May 14th, 2010 at 10:53 pm
Five horses at a time for 50 materials?! That’s kinda crazy…..
With the chicken coop, it gained 20 each time, and you only had to ask for 10 people to click. Much more reasonable. If you’re going to make it such a low number of horses, you should only really need to collect a few of each item. :/
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 12:55 am
Ok, good to see that I’m the only one with this bug: there is no Expand button…
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 2:01 am
dang, thats 200 pieces in total, it says you have to expand it 4 times collecting 10 of each, each time, to reach the maximum of 40, nice I like it harder.
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 2:18 am
That’s crazy! 50 items for 5 horses storage?! Not exactly worth it, and not at all proportional to all the other upgrades…
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 3:08 am
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE GARDEN SHED EXPANSION!? IT NO LONGER SHOWS…GARDEN SHED HAS BEEN WAITING LONGER, THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE THAT FIRST.
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 3:51 am
god, i wish farmville would just slow down, i am still building my baby shelter thing, and i havent even started the botanical garden but then stupid farmville already ended sending the garden stuff. and i just finished horse stable, but now i have through this all over again for and expansion!!!? >:|
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 7:03 am
I keep all my horses outside my barn for breeding so this is no use to me whatsoever
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 7:15 am
I don’t mind the level of difficulty in collecting 50 materials for 5 horses; I mind that I have to pester my neighbours to do it (half of whom are on summer hiatus anyway). I’ll pass.
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 7:43 am
This would make more sense if they now release some more of the unusual breeds of horses as “wandering animals” that you could grab off of your feed…..I mean, do I really want MORE brown and grey foals? Additionally, it would make more sense if in conjunction, they allowed the nursury barn animals to “grow up” so that the new foals produced from the horse stable could go into the nursury barn. right?
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 10:15 am
I also have no expand button!
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 10:17 am
FOUR TIMES ???????? AT 50 ITEMS EACH????? ZYNGA ARE YOU ON CRACK???? WHERE ARE WE SUPPOSED TO BE STORRING ALL THIS WHILE WE TRY AND FINISH ONE ROUND?????? MY GIFT BOX ONLY HOLDS 42 GIFTS SINCE YOU GUYS CANT GET YOUR S*** TOGETHER! ITS NOT EVEN WORTH IT…IM DONE!
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 11:46 am
Has anyone else had trouble breeding horses since yesterday when the expansion started?
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 2:05 pm

I have mixed results on breeding since the Expansion but I am wondering if the real difference has to do with me trying to breed the new Appaloosa.
Here are my results on 2 farms that I breed the LE horses – I started the expansion on both of them last night. On each farms I have the white stallion.
This morning on farm A: – out of 13 tries – I got 3 foals (White, Pinto & Percheron) and 1 Arborist. This is a bit better than average in that I usually get 2 foals and perhaps 2 of the Consumables (Arborists, Farm Hand Xp’s)
On the other farm B- out of 11 tries, I got 0 foals and only 1 Arborist. I just got the stallion on this farm, yesterday but was able to produce 2 foals yesterday. The one thing I was doing different this morning on this farm from the other one is that I was trying to breed just the Appalloosa, not the others, so maybe that was the difference.
BTW – this 5 at a time expansion totally sucks. I keep my stable empty for the breeding but I am doing the expansion anyway since it is always easier to do it when everyone else is rather than do it later.
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 4:23 pm
I don’t understand why we have to expand our stable 4 times and need an additional 200 items from our neighbors to get room for an additional 20 horses when we only needed 50 items to get the original capacity of 20 horses.
Posted on May 15th, 2010 at 8:51 pm
50 items for 5 horses? I think I go water my plants now and forget about that stable.
Posted on May 16th, 2010 at 1:05 am
So.. we need to collect 200 items for this in total to get to 40. Say you have 10 good neighbors. Alright. You get 20 a day from them via gifts and requests. 20 a day. Thats 10 days. And that is stretching it! This is going to take forever.
Posted on May 16th, 2010 at 6:55 am
Well, I´ve started the expansions yesterday, and I´m about to finish my third. It´s not hard when you have neighbours,, and you can also get some bonus materials when your friends finish raising or recah the limit of materials.
But I agree upgrading just for 5 horses each time gets a litle bi borring…
Posted on May 16th, 2010 at 10:16 am
So what’s the answer to the not being able to expand situation? No ‘expand icon’ appears for me either and my gift box is full with items. What are we to do? Is the expansion only open to a few chosen farmers? If so, that’s not quite fair!
Posted on May 16th, 2010 at 10:57 am
My horse stable will not expand,I lost so much material trying it ….help me please thanks
Posted on May 16th, 2010 at 10:58 am
my horse stable will not expand,help me please thanks, I Lost material trying for it too. thanks
Posted on May 17th, 2010 at 8:59 am
Fixed the problen, but lost alot of gifts
Posted on May 17th, 2010 at 4:30 pm
Does anyone know if they will increase the capacity from 40 soon? I am at 40 now, but still have at least 20 more horses. I currently have so many left over materials and don’t want to get rid of them unless it’ll be a while before they do.
Posted on May 19th, 2010 at 7:59 am
I was a bit disappointed at first 50 items for just an 5 horse expansion, but with the way it’s now setup to ask for help for items, it’s easier. If you have alot of neighbors and are neighborly yourself it goes quick. I had it expanded to the max 40 in 3 days.
Posted on May 20th, 2010 at 8:33 pm
I could only expand my stable 3 times and I had most of the items for another expansion. Why?
Posted on May 21st, 2010 at 12:08 pm
I must have missed the link to expanding the bar, I can collect the items, but I have no means to keep track :-/ Any help?
Posted on May 21st, 2010 at 9:31 pm
in farmville i completed expansion of horse stable but i can only accomodate 25 horses…….. what the *** this is ?????
Posted on May 22nd, 2010 at 1:52 am
Finally after lots n lots of requests i’ve fully xpanded ma horse stable…it can contain upto 40 horses…thats the limit!!!!!!!
Posted on May 24th, 2010 at 1:51 am
Nearly completed my fourth expansion and the “Ask For More” buttons have decided to stop working, I get a “Script Error” everytime I click the button so I can’t actually request any from anyone. This is a long arduous process and I run three farms and can send the pieces amongst myself as gifts. I can’t imagine relying on my friend to send pieces.
Maybe a week and a half before the expansion started I “sold” off a couple of leftover stable pieces from when I was building it initially, thinking they would be useless. That’ll teach me.
I’d really like to see more barn-type constructions to hold more types of animals. I like to use my land to plant crops and prefer having animals stored in structures.
Posted on May 25th, 2010 at 10:38 pm
You can buy at least five dairy farms – what I want is a nursery barn expansion!
Posted on May 26th, 2010 at 12:04 am

you’ll need to expand the horse stable to 50 or more or let us get more than 1 stable.. Our farms get full of animals an no place to put them.
