Rockin Horse Poo, AKA FireFlies

Geeez these firefires are harder to find than rockin horse poo, 13 chick pen.. 1 lot of fireflies, 5 cow sheds. 1 lot of fireflies, 3 pig sties and yep 1 lot of firefliesnot a good payout, 8%, 20% and 33%.

And the first person to write that the mill and silo is the best option will have the rockin horse poo tipped over them.

  • Uh Oh, was just gonna say that I often make chicken feed in the mill and sell it even, to get mine.  I do not want rocking horse poo tipped over on me, so I will suggest lots and lots of orchards.
  • LOL, yeah Ive got my mill running now im at home. Not sure which item it was.. but last year I got almost all the required items from running wf or corn non stop. After 3 hours I harvested the orchards or cow sheds, got about 20 whatevers, 10 minutes later had got same from my fields. but of course if you do not live on your farm......

    My orchards aren't dropping any at all on 2 harvests now, so I wouldn't recommend adding orchards just for the event. There's a chance it doesn't work since it only seems to work for sometimes for some people. D:
  • They sure  ARE greedy with these fireflies! I noticed that too. 
    I planted 5 fields of special corn seeds and only 1 field gave me fireflies.
    4 times in a row now, my chicken coops didn't give me any fireflies at all.
    I only have 2 apple orchards and 1 cherry orchard on my farm, harvested all 3 at the same time, and only got fireflies from 1 apple orchard. (Gee, thanks!)
    I'd think with how long the cherries take to produce, they could give my fireflies for that!

    Yep, greedy with the fireflies. 
  • As I pointed out, I know running the mill flat out is the best option, it is just the principle of it, as chaslyn says after waiting all that time for your cherry orchard harvest, in my case 3 orchards, and you get NOTHING, 
  • There is a list of the chance of a drop here:

    For fireflies, the chance from most things is only 25%.  Only the processors have a good chance.

  • Corn to the windmill, works for me every time, and the composter/silo as well.

    I know it isn't much, but if you folks want to keep your fields producing the feed you actually need, buy a full barn of corn and keep making chicken feed, selling it when necessary.
    It's not particularly helpful for lower level farms but I've had less trouble on those anyway. Higher levels can usually easily buy the corn in stead of harvesting it normally because profit margins are usually big enough in the first place for it to not make a dent into savings.

    EDIT: Point being that chicken feed is the fastest and I can usually catch up on the high amounts of items needed for events while my wheat harvest is still growing. So it doesn't exactly even mess with my production cycle like it would if I planted all that corn, making it harder to keep all buildings running and thus even harder to get fireflies/map pieces/what-have-you in the first place. =)

    Gotta love/hate them cherry orchards in events, they are the source of both great pleasure & huge disappointment. There is nothing better than a cherry orchard that pays out & nothing worse than one that doesn`t. :)
