Default Can I Increase my Animal Products when the Animal Sheds are full?

Can I Increase my Animal Products when the Animal Sheds are full?


Yes. There are several ways.
  1. Buying them from other farmers and Trading in the Trading Warehouse feature.
    For details on Buying, Selling and Trading please CLICK HERE to be taken to that Chapter of the Game Guide.

  2. Trains that have the Long Animal Products Car on them can bring you animal products.
    When it's your own trains you get some when you unload them after their journey.
    From your own Train you can get these amounts when you unload it. How often you would get them depends on how fast the locomotive is and if it's fully boosted to return home a day quicker. That time can range from 1 day up to 6 days. You can have one Long Animal Products Car per locomotive.
    • 208 x Cow milk
    • 145 x Hen Eggs
    • 145 x Turkey Feathers
    • 208 x Horsehair
    • 104 x Sheep wool
    • 104 x Llama wool
    • 104 x White Rabbit Fleece

  3. Boosting Neighbours/Buddies Trains that have the Long Animal Products Car on them, for part of the reward you get between between 1% and 3% of all the products being carried by the train.

  4. Ships. In this case you would need to have loaded the Animal Products container, dispatched the ship and then it depends on how many Ports it's is loaded at. The more ports loaded the more products you earn from Ships.

  5. Loading other farmers Ships at your Port, the reward you would get depends on if the Animal Products container is also on that ship and how soon you send them along, so can also be a varied amount. Your Port does need to be open to receive Ships.

  6. Participating in the Farm Pass feature and earning rewards for animal products.

  7. Consider changing regular sheds for super versions where possible. The super versions can hold twice as many animals than the regular versions.

  8. Consider buying Farm Cash Animals which produce more per animal AND even more when also placed in a Super Shed. You can have both regular animals and super animals in the same shed.

  9. Consider buying some facilities that can help to provide you with more of the products that are in higher demand (cows milk, hen eggs, sheep's wool, llama wool. These facilities do not increase products harvested from Turkeys, Peacocks, Ostriches, White Rabbits, Horses, Goats.

    It will be up to you to decide if you need these.

    Producing Premium Feed could help if:

    • your animal buildings are already full.
    • you don't have more farms to place more sheds on yet.
    • you would like extra animal products when you harvest them.
    The facilities needed make Premium Feed are:
    1. Feed Supplement Plant (FC) which is non-workable, you may want more than one of them.


    2. Premium Fodder Factory (FC) which can be worked by Neighbours and Buddies and could be a facility needed for Quests. You may only need one of these.

      IMPORTANT - Requesting Ingredients.
      Initially you could not request ingredients to make the products.
      This has been changed so that the Gift Lifeline on Quests can be used.
      You can request ONE of each Premium Feed in 24 hours.

    3. Fodder Factory (coins) which can be worked by Neighbours and Buddies. Most will already own this facility as it already makes other products as well as some of the additional products needed to Make Premium Feed.

    Products made in the Feed Supplement Plant and the Fodder Factory are used to make the Premium Feed in the Premium Fodder Factory.
    You can make:

    - Premium Cow Hay will feed your Cows
    - Premium Poultry Mix will feed your Hens
    - Premium Sheep Silage will feed your Sheep
    - Premium Llama Silage will feed your Llamas

    These Premium Feeds when stored will not go into your product storage. Instead, they get stored into a special storage, inside the animal sheds. When you mouseover an animal building it will show you how many Premium Feed you have for each type of animal shed.

    Examples of the Premium feed amounts:


    This method of storing is like the method of storing produced baits from the Fish Farming Plant. When you mouseover your waters your bait amount is shown.

    It does not matter if you have coin animals, Farm Cash animals, Regular Sheds or Super Sheds, or how you choose to you harvest your animals (via the shed on a farm or by using the Facility Manager) the appropriate amount of feed will be used to give you the extra products.

    When you harvest your animals using the animal building, you will see a brief notification telling you how much Premium Feed was used and what you gained.

    When you harvest your animals using the Harvest All at the top of the Facility Manager, you will that information in the bottom of the message that shows.

    1 day of production will produce enough premium fodder and feed enough animals to get the benefits below:

    - Extra 540 hen eggs daily
    - Extra 540 cow milk daily
    - Extra 540 sheep wool daily
    - Extra 540 llama wool daily

    That is a combination of 2,160 animal products, which is almost as much as the production of 2 Chicken Coops, 4 Wool Sheds and 1 Dairy Shed combined (assuming you can harvest the Dairy Shed 2 times a day). Notice also that if you buy another Feed Supplement Plant to replicate the benefits above, you won't need to buy another Premium Fodder Factory since it can be worked by friends.


To get the most amounts of animal products, you may want to try some or all options!
