Need help regarding the dog. Didn't buy one because I knew I was going to WDW for 9 days, so I bought one today. Once I feed it for 14 days, do I need to feed it anymore? My always generous FV friends have gifted me 35 or so kibble and 8 dog bones, so I don't have much room for accepting other gifts. If it's just 14 days, I'd like to sell/delete the extra kibble to make room, but don't want to get rid of anything I'll need later. Thanks.

You can buy a second dog (which would also need fed) for 5,000 coins but for the dog you have after 14 days it switches to treats (to train your dog) instead of kibble

Thanks. I thought about a second dog, but since they only eat once a day, it will still take me forever to clear out my gift box and I still have 30 gifts waiting to be collected.
 
Same here. It became too time consuming. I went away for the weekend and I have like 61 gifts to accept. I just harvested my crops, but left the fields unplowed for the time being.
I am a bit too busy with my allotment to keep an eye of my farmville farm. I have squashes to germinate, peas, mange tout and beans as well. I have also just planted 2 rows of new potatoes and 2 rows of strawberries. In the next few months I am going to be learning as much as I can about chickens and ducks because they are going onto the allotment some fore eggs and some for meat.
 
I generally leave kibble and dog treats unclaimed (not Accepted, but not Ignored, either), in my Facebook Requests page, until I need it, rather than having them clog my FarmVille gift box. You generally can leave things there for a week and a half.
 

Ugh I liked the co-op thing until yesterday. Friday night I planted my entire farm to rice to help out and came back Saturday morning to find the task completed and I hadn't even harvested yet. :confused3 I know that when I started the job there was only one person in the co-op but in the morning there were 4 people besides me. How exactly does that work?
 
One farmer starts the co-op. That person can enlist neighbors to help (and that's a good idea - see below), but actually any of the starter's neighbors can see that the job is available, and join the co-op. It is not by invitation only. It is even possible for neighbors to join the co-op after it is completely seeded, and not even contribute to the co-op themselves - just gain the rewards. It is up to the starter to ensure that s/he has honorable neighbors. However, to be fair, what your neighbors did was honorable. They helped out - they did exactly as they're supposed to.

Generally, as starter ("foreman"), you really should organize the job ahead of time, divvying up who should seed how many of each crop, to ensure that the job gets fully seeded, and eventually fully harvested, within the time limit. The better organized the job is, the more likely it will be successful, and the more likely you'll get the gold ribbon and the associated benefits of the gold ribbon.

But shouldn't I have been able to see that the original farmer's neighbors had planted all of the crops? When I joined in there was only the original farmer and 2/3rds of the crop had not been planted yet. There were still about 100 plots needed to complete the crop after I got done planting. I'm just confused how these others could jump in and plant then harvest quicker than I could have.
 
FV farmers can't farm with a Motorola Android phone. :( Bummer. My farming time has been cut significantly. I can see the FV fan page poss, but none of my neighbors bonus' and other rewards regarding the game. Zynga is working on how to get the game to work for Droids, but until time, sigh. My DH has not commented about it, but I'm sure he's relieved. He probably wonders why he didn't buy us Droids earlier :rotfl:. Oh desktop computer, how I love you!!!

Happy farming folks.

I was able to buy the dog for 5,000 as a first dog. Yesterday, I fed him in the morning and alter in the day it was telling me he had to be fed in two hours. I had 22 kibble in my gift box, but when I tried to feed the dog, where it should have said "feed" ir said "ask for more kibble". I'm not sure if the dog will still be there today.

"Some for meat"? You can raise foul for meat? Is this something new?

I've had experiences where people in my co-op did not harvest when they should have and messed up our chances for a gold metal. So I have joined co-ops that were already 100% seeded so that I could be a back-up for them. I planted the required crops. A couple were for the same neighbor recently. At the end of last week I heard through a friend that the neighbor who started them was mad that people joined after fully seeded "just to get the reward" and she was no longer doing co-ops. Then all of the sudden she dropped me as a friend and so did 3 of her family members! I don't know her personally but it ticks me off that I have always fertilized her farm, sent her gifts and she drops me because she perceived me as a "freeloader". I was going to send her a note but I just decided to forget it, I don't need her as a neighbor.
 
It is not clear to me, though, that backing-up works. By that I mean what folks have indicated is that FV will only count during harvest the number of plots that it "knows" you seeded while the % seeded was < 100%. That does allow you, for example, if you have 100 plots ready for harvest, to at that moment, join the co-op, seed 100 other plots with that crop, have that count toward the % seeded, and then immediately harvest the original 100 plots, and have that count toward % harvested. However, what I've been led to believe is that if you join a co-op when % seeded = 100%, then no matter what, your crops wouldn't count toward % harvested.

I haven't tried it myself, or at least not consciously such that I could say it worked or didn't work.

FWIW, I would prefer if it did work.
 
I know I'm late to this party, but I would gladly be a neighbor and help somebody out with their coop, especially a DIS-er!

If you can't PM me, then leave a posting after this one with your contact info or someway that I can friend you.

Thanks

I don't get that kind of anger over a virtual prize. We do co-ops and after we are seeded no one cares who hops on. We have been successful in discussing who will plant which crop in advance so that we have only not gotten the Gold twice. Having additional folks on board takes nothing away from us and only makes it more fun to see all those prizes scattered around. I am sorry your friend took this so seriously.

I would like that as well. I always like a llittle insurance on just about everything ;)

me too! :lmao:DH and I couldn't figure out what was making that noise, but I think it's the carrier pigeons b/c I don't have any doves.

It doesn't matter which it was I had my tabby cat on my lap and she got so grumpy about the cooing that she hopped of and bit her son on his ear!!!!!!!!!! (he is to blame for everything according to his mum)

No allotments have been around for decades (my grandfather had 2 plots which included chicken on it. In fact some people even raise pigs and goats on allotments.
