The Pig Pen!


Pig Pen - FarmVille 2
The Pig Pen has arrived in FarmVille 2! You can store your Prized Pigs in this home and feed them all with a single click! If that wasn’t enough, Prized Pigs in the Pen will only require half the amount of Feed & Speed-Feed, and will produce Chunks of Clay.

If you are level 10 or higher, you will see the following pop-up. Click on “Place Pig Pen” to get started.

Building the Pig Pen:

Your first step is collecting construction parts. You will need the following items to start building your Pig Pen:

  • Rich Mud
  • Pig Chimes
  • Pig Planks

To collect Rich Mud, click on the “Post” button to post to your Facebook wall – you will get the parts when your friends click on it, or when you click on a similar newsfeed post.

Click on the “Ask” button to send requests for Pig Chimes and Pig Planks to your Neighbors. If you do not wish to wait for your friends, you can skip any of these tasks for Farm Bucks.

Note: You can send a request for materials to your Friends every 18 hours.

Once you have collected the required items, click on the “Start Building” button at the bottom of the construction Menu.

Now that the Pig Pen is almost complete, you will need a little help from your Neighbors to finish the job. The Pig Pen requires four additional helpers, so click on the “Ask Friends” button to send some crew requests to your Friends. When they accept, you will see the spots in the Build Menu begin to fill. If you do not wish to wait for your friends, click the “Hire One” button to purchase crew members with Farm Bucks.

Inside the Pig Pen, you will see placements that you can fill with Prized Pigs. Prized Pigs will take up one spot in your Pen regardless of breed (see below: Hampshire Pig).

Adding & Removing Pigs:
To add Prized Pigs in the Pen, check the “Auto Fill” box and click on the green “Add Prized Pigs” button. All of your Prized Pigs will automatically scoot into the Pen!

To remove a Prized Pig from the Pen, open the main menu and click on the red “–“ (minus symbol) box on the bottom left hand corner of the placement slot (see below: A).
The Pigs cards have symbols on them to indicate different things:

A. Minus Symbol: Remove Pigs
B. Feed: How much Feed the Pigs will consume
C. Truffles: How much the Pigs will produce (see below: Feeding)
D. Mastery: Animal Mastery Ribbons

Feeding:
Prized Pigs stored in the Pen will eat half of the amount of Feed they normally do. For example, a Pig that eats 8 Feed outside of the Pen will eat 4 Feed when inside the Pen. Note: Any Prized Pig that would normally eat an odd amount of feed outside of the Pig Pen will be rounded up by one. For example, a Pig that would normally eat 9 Feed will only need 5 Feed when stored in the Pig Pen. Prized Pigs in the Pen also only require one Speed-Feed for every two Prized Pigs. 

Chunk of Clay:
Each time you harvest the Pig Pen you will find a Chunk of Clay, which can be used in exclusive Crafting Kiln Recipes. To learn more about the Crafting Kiln, view the official guide: Crafting Kiln. Chunks of Clay will linger on your farm similar to Prized Crops, so be on the lookout for them after feeding! Fill your Pig Pen all the way to get the most Chunks of Clay when you harvest!

Note: Clicking on the Chunk of Clay will automatically add it to your Inventory.
