i want to update this post for anyone that may have the same issue. upon further analysis these time outs have nothing to do with the number of animals seen on a farm. i just finished smoothly working a friend's farm that had close to 100 animals on it, so i went back to some of the farms that kept timing out. the issue is caused by a specific way that the 'forbidden topic' is executed, so if you are experiencing time outs while working facilities i suggest you look closely at the farm with nothing hidden. i am compiling a 'no work' list for people i find using this method. i will not contribute to dragging down the farm town servers.
