Hi Teddy! How ya doing?

Looks like it is going to be a lot of fun ... just hoping with everything crossed that a Baby Boom will accompany the start of the event. *Closes eyes and wishes really hard!*

 

Well done BP, I found this event balanced and yet still challenging. BBD is rightly associated with the breeding events, if that would not be the case many would not participate or be totally unhappy.
So, please keep it the same you are doing a good job

 

Like: No event crops, Mill products are easy from the crops anyone should have in their inventory in the first place.
Dislike: Amount of breeding involved to get baby animals.
Lets face it which neighbor is going to spend 2BB to send a baby animal as a gift??

 

I found the breeding outcome and "babies" unbalanced. I somehow still need 30 baby ducks yet I have the required amount of ducks...so I have to breed 30 extra babies without needing the ducks for the quest.

I actually purchased the school supply basket that contained 80PF ($12.00 Canadian)....it helped but it takes 9 hours to mill 1 power feed and the return in the game isn't enough. I still need 60 PF to complete the quest, and it is not possible to produce that amount in 5 days!! I used the magical tree!!!
I agree with pickles60 comment
Other than that, I found this event very relaxed with some decent rewards

UPDATE: I finished "Farm-ergarten" WooHoo! Me so happy!! It is the first quest event I have had the opportunity to finish. Yipee....

 

I liked the event, I did the milling on Baha whilst waiting for BBD to start. Filled 2 fields with breeding hotels and was finished in no time.
Made a good profit from selling excess mallards, motor ducks, brownies and blackies. I got one good skip, a rosie I'm selling for 2 million cc's.
Thumbs up from me.

 

I liked it. Like that there are no event crops.
I did some of the milling before the BBD, and some during.
First event I've finished as I'm a relatively new farmer. Got a cloud row - yay!
I used my extra duck breeds in the normal breeding quest as I still need to finish those.

 

This event was well designed to allow both new players and veterans to succeed. I like being able to use regular crops in events, instead of event crops!

Being able to use both mills and do milling before the event started was good. I had all milling done before the event and was able to finish the event quickly once I started. Prizes were nice, especially the harvester coupons and power feed!
Enjoyed this event very much!

 

Really liked how this event turned out. It was the first time I finished without having to scramble the last day to meet requirements. Thank you BP ! I finished yesterday and continued breeding to work towards pink pens.

 

This Event was Actually More Harder to Complete than it was compared to Rodeo Babies... as it was asking for 72 Baby Ducks verse to 40 Foals and 46 Baby Lambs verse 28 Calves... A high Amount of Power Feed Needed for This Event as Rodeo Babies has been completed with using much less Power Feed Requirement. Total of Minimal of 236 Power Feeds to Complete this Event

However it we was allocated to get 5 Wonder Stables and 12 Wonder Trees....The Wonder Stables was useless for me but i did get couple of useful Rare Trees though !!!

I did Make good CC Selling Excess Breeding Animals and Ducks so that helps...

There was confusion to why we could send Baby Ducks and Lambs to Neighbours for 2 BB Each Before this Event Even Started...I am not sure that Breeding Animals that need Babies actually gives us less likely skips Specially Refering to Baby Boom Rune than Breeding Animals than does not need babies

This Event was ok I Enjoyed the Rodeo Babies Event Better...than this one.... Plus Rodeo Babies Cloud Row gives Better Baha EP than this cloud row as you gain more Baha EP as you Level up not too keen on Fixed Baha EP Cloud Rows....

What was let down was the EP Givers all Three of Them does not goes well when used with Pets that we can used Every 10 Hours they givers becomes Idle at every 6 Hours so they only benefit staying in cloud row !!!

Not Impress with this Event Really....

 

I think the babies were cute.
I liked the trees and stables as prizes and especially the power feed.
I do think though that the power feed requirements were really too high. As others have pointed out the rodeo babies asked for less babies and therefore less powerfeed.
Having multiple tasks is great as then you have to use strategy and the milling/making things is also a good element.
I liked that this was a long event and we had enough time to complete this event.
I do not understand the concept of events having such a short time that mid to lower level new players cant even think of finishing even if they want to spend lots of money. I am an upper midway level player i struggle to complete events now and it seems like it took forever to be able to even get to the point of being able to finish an event. sure i know no one says you have to finish an event but then you have to pick and choose which prize(s) you want to try for if you even want to participate in the event. It also seems as if there are event prizes that are needed to help complete future events so you have to keep that in mind when picking and choosing as well. If it is being done to keep the upper player who have access to EVERYTHING happy then i am sorry but they need to set their own individual goals as to how fast they want to finish using the extras available to them. Maybe they need to try to complete the event at a newbie level if think it is too easy for them. dont get me wrong i am not saying that the event has to go on for a whole month but come on is it really necessary to pick the shortest time needed to complete the event using buffs, all land spaces, pets (i dont even have one of these yet), cr's etc. possible as the event duration or close to it?? that is why you get alot of players complaining about back to back events. they are so stressed from the previous event they dont have time to destress to start the next one. Maybe decreasing the event plant or main requirements for the event instead of increasing the duration is a solution. (again i know you hear that complaint alot that the event crop requirement is too high). This game shouldnt be stressful, involve some strategy yes but if you have to rush home to harvest something and you miss or you mess up now you may not finish that is very stressful. then all that hard work was for nothing. Sometimes things in real life just get out of control. Just my suggestions.
Thank you and Happy Farming!!

 

I liked this event - it was possible to time it to each individual's own requirements. I finished the breeding in about one and a half hours (of course with the aid of Pink Jelly, the speedy breeding Cloud Row and Pheromones). I also made lots of CCs selling the basic animals - which I then spent on other animals!
It did take a bit of PF but we got some back so not too bad all things considered.

No need to rip our farms apart to complete this event which is always a bonus for me.
If I have one negative point - the skips were pretty poor this time round - but it is random so ...
Thumbs up from me for this event.

 

Guess I'm a dummy....cuz a did send a couple of babies to my neighbors that have always gifted me tremendously..It felt good to gift something that a higher level player than I could actually use and not have a bunch already in the pantry! I liked the event overall. I did finish and get the cloud row, also. (that's always a PLUS in my book) I do not usually get the total event finished. I'm left with gift givers with no homes or cloud rows that are grayed out. Thanks for a great event BP!

 

I know skips are supposedly random but I think that the overall percentage of skips above 2 levels over what was bred, were terrible. I don't believe they are as random as some think. I no longer breed as much because it just isn't worth the extra PF.

 

Greetings lovely Farmers,

Thank you all for the feedback provided.
