Cuckoo Breeding Returns: Covert Cuckoos!

24 July 2014 at 14 CEST - 31 July 2014 at 14 CEST
Difficulty: Medium​

* From what level can we participate in this event?

You will need to be at least level 21 in order to access this event, since it requires coloured breeding.
​

* How can I access the event?

You will find a new quest in your Farmer's Society, called Covert Cuckoos. Please remember that the old quest, called Cuckoo Kids, can also be accessed during this event - since the Cuckoos events will keep returning with new quests, but you will have the option of finishing the old ones as well (if you haven't already). The Cuckoo Kids FAQ can be found here.
​

* What is special about this event?

This is a recurring breeding event! You will need to breed the 4 types of Cuckoos from basic Cuckoos which can be collected by harvesting stables!

Every time you harvest a stable (animal pens - regular or rare, workshops, coloured upgrades, jumbo stables - on the main farm lands or Bahamarama) you will receive a certain amount of Cuckoos, depending on the maturing time of the pen. You will not receive Cuckoos from harvesting Secret Stables (the actual seedling).

≥ 44:00	29
≥ 48:00	32

You can also get a few Cuckoos from the quest, as well as from the breeding package available for sale.
The coloured Cuckoo breeds will then be required for the Farmer's Society quest: Covert Cuckoos!
The Cuckoos can be bred like all the other coloured animals, in breeding motels, and they require 2 units of power feed per process. All the effects available for the normal breeding can be applied here as well (runes, buffs).

Yes! Here are the requirements of the event quest in Farmer's Society, called Covert Cuckoos. You won't manage to finish the quest this time? Do not worry! The Event will return, with a brand new quest - but this quest will still be available, your progress will not be lost! Please note that the quest is not permanent, but it will return every time the Cuckoo-based event will be on.​
