User Submitted Questions

• Q: What is the real concept of the nursery barn, besides storage for baby animals?
• A: FarmVille will eventually upgrade the Nursery Barn to let animals grow up and share with their friends.
• Q: Why are we not able to add lambs to the nursery barns? It’s my understanding that lambs are baby sheep. If we can place baby foals and baby calves, we should be able to place lambs in the nursery barns.
• A: Baby lambs were limited edition items.
• Q: Does the development team actively take feedback from the forums, or are the forums just here for us to discuss?
• A: The FV forums are frequently used to gather feedback and requests from users.

• You can store up to 200 items in the same size area (footprint) of a plot of Tulips.
• You will start out with a smaller number of slots and will need your friends to help grow crops for them.
• These crops will give you energy to dig underground and increase the size of your cellars.
