FarmVille Horse Stables are here!

Posted on February 3, 2010 1:43 pm by FarmVille Freak Dr. Green Thumb

In a very late Tuesday Wednesday update, FarmVille introduced another building with purpose- a Horse Stable!

FarmVille Horse Stable Icon

The Horse Stable works like the Barn Raising in that you have to build it and work with your FarmVille neighbors for help. You will also need to be gifted or purchase materials required to build your Horse Stable. As an exciting perk for completing your Horse Stable, you will be gifted a free Grey Horse!


FarmVille Brick Stables Giftable

FarmVille Harness Stables Gfitable



FarmVille Brick

FarmVille Harness

FarmVille Horseshoe

FarmVille Nail

FarmVille Wooden Board

Please read Horse Stable Directs at bottom of post for more details.

FarmVille Horse Stable Announcement I

Everyone will receive one Horse Stable foundation in their Gift Box. You do not have to purchase it from the FarmVille Market. Although, the Horse Stable Foundation is available for 5,000 coins in the FarmVille Market in case you accidentally delete it.

Finally the Horses will have a place to live! Any of the horses can be stored in the Horse Stable that fits 20 Horses. You collect from your Horses in the stable every 24 hours.

FarmVille Horse Stable Announcement II

Directions on Horse Stable (Provided by Zynga’s Community Manager Lexilicious)

“Once you’ve placed the Foundation on your farm, you will be prompted with a message letting you know that you can post a feed to ask you friends for help building your stable.

Clicking the “Share” button will give you the option to post a feed to your wall. Up to 10 of your Neighbors can click on this feed to receive 100 Coins.

In order to use your Horse Stable, you’ll need to finish building it. Selecting ‘Look Inside’ from your foundation’s menu will show you what you need to complete your Horse Stable.

When you first place the foundation, you’ll have one Brick already. In order to build a complete 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 build your Stable. Your Neighbors will be able to send you two of the five types of building components to help you complete your horse stables.

Please note that the two components displayed on the Free Gifts Page are randomized. As such, the components displayed on the Free Gifts Page may be different for each user. These two components are changed weekly.

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 Horse Stable.

2. Purchasing components from the Market,

You can purchase components required to build your Horse Stable from the Market for 1 Farm Cash per item.

When you reach 25 items, 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 Horse Stable construction.

When you complete your Horse Stable, 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.

Once the Horse Stable is complete, you’ll receive a Grey Horse of your own.

You’re able to store up to 20 horses in your stable and you may only have one Horse Stable per farm. Right now, you can store the regular brown Horse, the Grey Horse, and a new purchasable Pinto Horse.

Every 24 hours, you’ll be able to collect from the horses stored in your Horse Stable.”  (Source:  Zynga Official FarmVille Forum)

  4. Che Marungo Says:

    I have been waiting weeks for this!!

  5. Janise Says:

    Just started mine :) You can gift some of the materials needed to friends, help them with the stables or buy the materials yourself (which cost $1 FV cash each)! So excited that I can finally house my horses!

  6. Jana Says:

    and some limited valentine seeds and animals and giftables. I really can’t understand the purpose of limited SEEDS – the rest of it I understand…but why make us plant stuff we can’t master, nor use within our long term landscaping plans

  7. letty Says:

    in the giftable stable stuff every person has two different things

  8. Farmer BEN Says:

    Send function is back!!!

  9. letty Says:

    for the stable

  10. tommy Says:

    These are kewl but beware when u post on ur wall it only lasts a few minutes before it poofs and expires. referee cows are in as well look to ur gift giving for gifts to send for stables good luck everyone

  11. Mike Says:

    Can buy Pinto’s horse with FV cash!

  12. Keith Says:

    I was trying to raise my horse stable today and the “Ask for help from others” would not post to my feed, farmville froze and it would not let me repost it.
    How do you re-post the barn raising?
    My computer froze, it wouldn’t post.
    Now there is no way for me to get that screen back so that I CAN post the Share request to my feed!!! Please help!

  13. noodles Says:

    New Mystery Box !!! I got Water Mill ….Nice !!!

    http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=83273&id=100000580774105

  14. Nette Says:

    Can we store the stables if they are empty? I don’t have any horses at the moment, but I’d like to have it for future use, if I decide to get some.

  15. cam Says:

    keith the same happend to me

    hear is my girt link pls send me stable stuff http://apps.facebook.com/onthefarm/gifts.php?ref=neighborBar&giftRecipient=1122084797

  16. Leigh Says:

    great news about the stable :) just got to hope my neighbours are going to be good with the gifts!

    Keith
    go barn to the expand storage part and then cancel the barn expansion, then re select expand again. I had same problem before

  17. Tee Says:

    yesss!!! I am so ridicoulously excited about this one… AND the new horses… though a gray horse is alittle boring, they should have done a palimino I think… Ha ha… I wonder what the “get help from friends” actually does?!? As it certainly does not add more items into the stable… hmmmm

  18. zaroucitizen Says:

    i managed to buy one before it was free and now i have two stables!!!

  19. Farmer BEN Says:

    I just got a waterfall from mystery box it like rock stream but better

  20. zaroucitizen Says:

    if anyone now wants to add me it is lilly kapourani the one with a yellow shirt saying girl-power

  21. zaroucitizen Says:

    to bad they fixed the glitch i can only have one and the other one my gift box as the chicken coop

  22. Farmer BEN Says:

    This new mystery box is amazing got watermill as well!!!

  23. Szizsi Says:

    I have the same problem as Keith… farmville froze and it would not let me post ask for help to build stables… what should i do?

  24. Rawb Says:

    Got a Koi pond from the new mystery box!

  25. Gom Says:

    Something unique what Zynga has done for gifting in parts of horse stable
    Why dont they do the same for collectables it will be very easy to complete collections

  26. XERO Says:

    IT LOOKS LIKE
    GUYS CAN GIFT HORSESHOES AND NAILS
    GIRLS CAN GIFT HARNESSESS AND BRICKS

  27. Frank Says:

    How many horses does a stable hold???

  28. Keith Says:

    The issue I described before, I got fixed.
    What I did is I sold my Stable, and re-purchased it from the market.
    Sure I lost 5000 coins, but at least I got to post the feed for Stable building.
    So that worked.

  29. SoulDemo Says:

    how many horses does it store?

  30. Emilyvine Says:

    There is a new item in the Expansion area… “3 Unwithers.”

  31. Tessie Says:

    I was ûber exited to see the stable…BUT, mine is locked :( (

  32. Angel Says:

    What happens when your friends help you to build the barn? I thought that their help would be give me one of the 50 items needed, but that’s not it.. many of my neighbors have helped me and I got NO item, except from gifts!

  33. Coggi Says:

    same as Angel here :S

  34. Susan Says:

    Angel, I had the same issue.

  35. Glick23 Says:

    I’m assuming that you need all the items AND a certain number of people to help you build it.. That’s my only guess why you need people to help and you don’t actually get items when they do.

  36. Lucas Says:

    Have u noticed the other horse in the second page of animals at the market, right?

  37. Xeek Says:

    Xero: i got a horseshoe from someone, forgot who and what gender, but i did get one

  38. Tomas Says:

    Yes, I can confirm the same error. Have received like 5 clicks for “Lend a Hand” and nothing happens. I would assume it is the same as with the expansions where when a friend helps you it gives you an extra step just that here it would be a building material. I am positive there is a glitch and as usual we are going to loose all of the helps until Zynga solves it so I would suggest not to help any friends as that will probably vanish into thin air until the problem is solved.

  39. Vida Says:

    By lending a hand you only get 100 coins, the stable owner gets nothing. What’s the point??? Only zynga knows.
    You get the materias by gifting or with FV$.

  40. Xeek Says:

    meant wooden board.

    doesnt seem the guy girl thing is right tho. cause a girl sent me a horseshoe

  41. Rocking Says:

  42. Dawn Says:

    Xero
    Gender is not issue I have 2 daughters and they are gifting 2 different sets. One has brick and wood, the other harness and horseshoe.

  43. Tonya Says:

    Stoked about the new horse stable…long time coming. Can’t wait until I get it all constructed!

  44. FarmViller Says:

    just reached 25 element:

  45. gokce Says:

    i had the same problem too 6 friends helped but nothing happened..even if there is an amount that is required how are we going to see how many left? İ agree with tomas it should be like that otherwise why should we help other people?i think zynga must be more clear about these kind of things and explain propely:( and by the way if zynga gods are reading these posts please create a dairy farm fort he calf too i have so many of them:)

  46. Fuipig Says:

    You can send any gift you like, just edit the url

  47. Lilly Says:

    I got 2 items as gifts, but can’t find them anywhere. Guess they’re still fixing stuff.

  48. Mohamed Says:

    DONE 50 ITEMS !

    http://www.aminavenue.com/support/box/stable.jpg

  49. Lea Says:

    If I accidently “cancelled” the popup to share the link, is there any way to get it back??

  50. shirley Says:

    I have a stable on my farm and one in my gift box..everytime i add the stable to the farm my page is outa sink and when it comes back the 2nd stable is back in my gift box..what is happening

  51. bob Says:

    So….. where do you buy the materials in the market? I can’t find them in the market……

  52. Wayne Says:

    Has anyone else noticed that if you go to one of your storage sheds and click expand storage the stable is listed in there as “coming soon” along with the dairy and coop. I wonder how long is soon?

  53. rick Says:

    Okay so waht’s the point of help your neighbours – it doesn;t seem to do anything?

  54. FVFreakCody Says:

    Don’t know how, but when I loaded my farm after leaving for a minute, my Horse Stable appeared complete even though I only have 5/50 items… see link attached.

    http://tinypic.com/r/2vk0ztf/6

  55. raetharp Says:

    I HATE BEING ONE TO BITCH BUT ITS HARD ENOUGH TO COLLECT COINS AND THINGS WHEN TIME IS LIMITED,
    BUT I’VE HAD CLOSE TO 200000 COINS AND OTHER ITEMS JUST VANISH AND NO ONE SAY HOW OR WHERE THEY ARE GOING WHAT IS UP. AM I THE ONLY PERSON HAVING THIS PROBLEM.
    THIS IS CRAP, THIS KEEPS UP AND I’LL JUST BUY ME AN X-BOX I REALLY DON’T NEED THIS CRAP ON MY COMPUTER, INTERNET THIEF IS BAD ENOUGH LET ALONE HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT IT ON A SILLY GAME

  56. farmgoddess Says:

    @ BOB: The materials for the Horse Stable can be purchased under “Buildings” tab.

  57. Veggygirl Says:

    @raetharp

    had the same thing happen the other day except i lost 100,000 coins. Not a big deal as I have quite a bit right now. Are you using the seeder i found it was the reason I was loosing money. It’s fine now the other day it was messed up.
    Clue me in on these stables are we to buy these horses with FV $?

  58. Dawn Says:

    When you are over half way you get to share building items.

  59. DPD Says:

    Just had a problem occur. I placed the stable on my farm and had put in 6 items, then farmville had to refresh my page. When it loaded back up, my stable was back in my inbox, i lost all my items that were in the stable and i lost my ref cow. :( Not only that, but i had to reharvest my crops from earlier this afternoon, which i had already replanted and harvested blackberries. So i’m assuming i lost all the xp’s and $$$ that i had gained from earlier in the day… has anyone else had this happen???

  62. Akash Says:

    is there any limit of accepting gifts?? because after i accepted gifts from some of my friends(appx. 13 of them), . again when am trying to accept gifts, it is going to my ‘play’ tab directly, and the gifts vanishes…have checked my gift box.. it is empty…

  63. becka Says:

    i want a porkiepine (:

  64. Kim Says:

    I am seeing a finished barn on my farm even tho I only have 5 items..what’s up with that?

  65. michael Says:

    XERO- nope i am a guy and i can gift wooden boards and bricks.

  66. Karen Says:

    Here we go again!!! Now whenever you click on something it goes to a BLANK page!!!! Thought maybe the kinks were ironed out. Anyone else having this problem?

  67. Ann Says:

    Yes, I can not receive anything. All I get is a blank page as you said. I think they are over swamped. We will just have to wait for them to get it fixed.

  68. hello Says:

    i built the stable. the size is 9 by 7. and you can fill it up with 20 horses. the average horse on the stable will yield 84 coins a day. therefore, 20 times 84 is 1680 coins daily. take the 1680 divide it by the 63 square unit area and you are yielding 26.7 coins a day per tile. your better off with the brown goose that yields 40 coins a day per tile. even if you fill up the barn with pintos, given their current stats, you still cant beat the goose.

    the stable looks great. and is probably a must for any well designed decorative farm. but if you’re building a full fledged money farm, you should prolly pass on this one. for the time being. unless they release mares and other horses that gives more money.

  69. Ruthie Says:

    I only had 6 neighbors click on “lend a hand”. When someone else clicks on it, they get a message “expired? How can I get my stable built? :(

  70. Kelly Says:

    I just wanted to let everyone know that you can put the clydesdales in the stable, as well as, brown horse, grey horse and pinto horses.

    Thanks!

  71. SmugMac Says:

    Just visited a friend’s farm – they already have the Horse Stables too, have to admit they look disappointing. >_<

  72. SF Says:

    please let us ROTATE everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! pllllleaaaaassssseeeeeeeeeee

  73. Kira Says:

    OK, seriously, how do people post links for gift exchange? I cant figure out where they get the code. Help!

  74. MooMooMoo Says:

    Facebook is FUBAR.

    I had to purchase a stable after the announcement I had a stable was zonked by Facebook and never appeared in either the feed or on my wall.

    Numerous stables I have attempted to assist with have the same issue.

    I believe the gifting is random as there is no pattern among genders.

  75. yarden_FV_freak Says:

    i have the same thing…….. lots of my friends helped and i got the things only from gifts……..WTF…=(((

  76. babyboo Says:

    anyone notice the c ollectibles are gone now? as in you arent getting any… or at least im not.. its weird

  77. daydreamerss Says:

    UMMM. I KEEP ASKING THIS QUESTION. I know you cant get two stables.. but i got one on my farm and in my gift-box… I wonderingg… What the hell happened?

  78. Keith Says:

    @ DPD
    well i’m sorry for you but well once happened to my brother he harvested all his peas and planted coffee (I know because i was next to him). The next day when he logged in to harvest his coffe he found the peas. (luckily they weren’t withered)

    @ janjost
    NOOOOOOOOOO, that’s not true, if you’ve seen farmvillefreak in these last few days you would have seen that thoose groups are being scammed by farmville because they are not real and maybe they are trying to access your account!!!

    @ daydreamerss
    That’s obviously a Glitch be patient and wait for zynga to resolve the mystery!!!

    NOW my comment is:
    Apart from having the same question as a lot of you have with regards “Why do we help people building stables?” an therefore “Why do people help me?” and another thing i wanted to mention is that i reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllyyyyyyyyyyyyyywant zynga to let us rotate the buildings with the new horse stable they ruined my farm becuase it is not like the dairy farm and the chicken coop, it is rotated hope they can release that soon!!

    ONE LAST THING!!!! CAN YOU COMMENT ON THE SUBJECT PLEASE AND NOT COMMENTING ABOUT EVERYTHING ELSE??? iF YOU WANT TO COMMENT ABOUT YOUR LOST CROPS OR YOUR GOOSE OR YOUR GOATS COOMMENT ON THE FORUM. HERE JUST POST YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT THE HORSE STABLE.

    THANK YOU!!!!

  79. Oliver Says:

    The horse stable on my farm and all my neighbours (even with only 3 out of 50 materials) look like the completed version.

  80. scand79 Says:

    The posts to have other people lend a hand are probably just to create a frenzy about the horse stable (which seems to have worked). Zynga gets lots of people buzzing about their product; the rest of us get 100 coins. I think Zynga wins this one.

  81. bananaita Says:

    horse stable is great.

    send me your gift link and i will send you something for it.!!

    here is my link:

    http://apps.facebook.com/onthefarm/gifts.php?ref=neighborBar&giftRecipient=551620476

    aand, i have seen a lot of posts announcing “get the expansion, get the horse stable, etc” by becoming a fan and inviting all friends…

    I have not done it because it sounds just like a strategy to get fans in that specific group page.

    Has it worked for any of you??

  82. Kim Says:

    So my thanks go out to Zynga for making building the stable more difficult…8 “lost” stable materials in 24 hours…gee thanks. How on earth do you build if when you accept the materials it simply goes to a blank page and the gift is lost?

  83. dgdfgh Says:

    how can i paste my gift recipent?

  84. Jasmine Says:

    I assumed my pony was a horse too, therefore i could put him in my stable but apparently not. Why?

  85. Dragonfyre Says:

    @Bananaita

    I’m assuming you are referring to those groups and such that are on Facebook…if it is, they are all scams…there was a topic on here a few days ago about them.

  86. pansy Says:

    I am unable to store the empty stable in my shed. Is anyone else having the same problem? This is strange cos I have been able to store my houses and other stuff. thank you.

  87. Colleen Says:

    I only need 8 bricks to finish my stable and no one in my list of friends is able to gift them and I don’t have enough FV cash to buy them. Hope they change up soon.

  88. Becca Says:

    I have 100s of extra stable materials. I am always leery about selling these things as usually as soon as I do they repurpose them. Is there any reason I shouldn’t sell them all and empty my cache?

  89. shaprelle Says:

    I have only been able to gift the nail and the horseshoe, it has not changed at all and i think we should be able to buy the materials that we dont get with coins because i am not paying for FV CASH!

  90. Jam Down Farmer Says:

    When are they planning to change the stable materials you can gift like they did for the collectables? . Some of my neighbours are still building because they can’t get the materials needed to complete the building. NOTE using FV Cash to buy material in the market is not fair!

  91. kim Says:

    you can now get colors on them — just shot you an email with screen shots

  92. Motherseer Says:

    I keep seeing there are ways to gift your extra stable building materials – does anyone know how?

  93. Dawn Says:

    My materials have never changed. I still have the same old brick and board. Are they supposed to change? My stable is still incomplete because nobody has nails and horseshoes to give me and I an not paying FV Cash to get them.

  94. vickie Says:

    I’m having the same problem as Dawn. I started with nails and horse shoes and they have never changed. Problem is my neighbors don’t change either. I need bricks and boards. How can we complete our stable if our neighbors can’t give us what we need, and I agree with Dawn, I don’t want to have to pay FV cash to get them. (To bad we can’t get together on this Dawn!)

  95. Laura Says:

    Here it is Feb.27 and the stable gifts have never changed. I hate it when they outright fib to us.

  96. Zoe Says:

    My gifts haven’t changed either, (Wooden board and nails), and it seams all of my friends have bricks and harnesses to gift, nothing else, so I’m really struggling to get going here!

  97. Missie Says:

    It’s March 9th… and I am in the same boat… I have boards and nails but not enough horseshoes…. and none of my friends have them either :( How can we get them to change the “giftable items”?

  98. Michaael Says:

    I enjoy FarmVille…But its getting stupid that you all add things like the Horse Stables..But dont add the things we need to build them

  99. bindu Says:

    how many times can i expand my horse stable?
    once i am finished with all my expansion how many horses will fit into the stable?

  100. OiMoi Says:

    Love building it cuz its not just there you have to work to get the parts. Can’t wait till its built and when it is I will get a nursery barn

  101. Christel Says:

    I had 20 one moment then suddenly i have 4….what could have happened? I restart and still no horses.

  102. Peter Pex Says:

    Has anybody playing Farmville encountered losing materials in the horse stable before? I had almost completed the stable when almost all the items disappeared.I replaced most of them back, except for a few. But the next time I looked they had “all” but for a few gone again. It all seems very strange indeed

  103. Peter Pex Says:

    I intended to say that I bought back most of the items back with my FV money when most of the building materials disappeared again leaving me with only 2FV

  104. Kara Says:

    When are we going to be able to build a second stable? you can’t store animals. I’ve built a lot of nurseries but eliminated about 3 of them just by eliminating the lowest paying animals. Officially you are only supposed to have 2 nurseries but they continue to let you buy and build. Maybe that’s why they don’t want to give us another horse barn because of that glitch they have with the nurseries. I wish they would figure it out!

  105. Kara Says:

    maybe we should be able to expand to 60 animals for the horse barn with the barn raising expansion option.

  106. Nikki Says:

    Why are my nursery and stable materials disappearing? I actually completed my nursery one night and the next morning 9 of the bottles were gone. I was 2 wooden boards away from finishing my barn and now it is back down to 1 of 10. I am ready to give up. What a pain.

  107. Alisha Says:

    Please, please, please let us rotate everything!! Completely rotate. Without the ability to rotate buildings, stables, pens, benches, etc., it is hard to really “decorate” our towns because we can only turn things certain ways. It limits how are farms can look. Also, please allow us to purchase with coins, not just cash, everything in the market. Not everyone has extra money floating around to buy farmville cash. Or at least let us be able to exchange coins for $$ instead of having to purchase it with real cash. Lastly, please let us purchase the pens for all animals (sheep, goats, etc.) in the market without placing a limit on how many we can have and allow us to build them as we choose. Thanks!

    i need horse stable i don’t have one can you help me bay send one to me ?
