    lol I wasn't asking you to do any math!! :)

    A note of how many dung you have before and after collecting was all I meant. But it was only a suggestion to help them see what is wrong. I always think the more information the better, but you obviously don't have to do this if you don't want to :)

    I'll try to take the time to note it tomorrow morning as I collect. Thanks for the suggestions!

    I have to keep stopping my production of fertilizer and the advice they give me is that it is not to my advantage to sell fertilizer to make room to produce more..so..I stay down a lot. Sure wish there was a way we could swap what we needed with our fellow players ..we all might be able to use help in some fashion! I would gladly give you some of my 'poop'...if it were possible..figure it out and let me know..I am down on the fertilizer production right now..have the same stuff as you..only thing I can figure out is that I am retired and play more of this game? I am on level 52 too..if that matters any..I just am amazed that my animals produce soooo much dung. I do love it that they all move around though ..katmajik....

    I used to be able to make enough fertilizer for my 3 apple orchards and 1 cherry to run constantly with a touch extra. I have three cows 1 lvl 5 and 2 lvl 4. I have 3 pigs, 1 lvl 5 and two lvl 4. I also have 3 chickens fully upgraded. Now I have done most of these upgrades since I started noticing a lack of poop. When it was flowing smoothly I had a lvl 5 in each cow and pigs, but then all other cows and pigs were lvl 2 and 3. I also just recently upgraded to the highest lvl silo, and still not enough fertilizer!!!! Why would it flow smoothly with less, and now half the time my cherry sit snoozing because I can't get enough. They had to have changed something in the last 2 months!!! I worked hard to keep my farm balanced and be able to sustain what I have. I am not happy that they would go in and play with the numbers, which has thrown off the balance of my farm. Our co-op just happened to talk about this the other day. Then we realized it was something we all had kinda noticed. It must have been a small change, but like I said just enough to mess up the balance of our farms! I have not complained about Big Farm. I love the game. But this... this has me mad. :(X(

    Back when the easter event was on, I could have sworn I was getting more dung than I should have been (or the silo was using less than it should have been). I never bothered to look into it too deeply though because who wants to complain about having extra dung! But there were certainly times when I had much more dung than I expected to have. If this was indeed a bug, and it has since been fixed, could this be the answer to the mysterious dung issue?

    Does it say anywhere on the forum how much poop we are supposed to get with each level animal shed? My worry is that if we are trying to count this ourselves and don't know if there is a bug or not we won't have any idea as to the accuracy of our numbers.

    jaystarr2, you can see it on your own farm, on the info tab for each shed. my level 5 coops produce 14 (and decrease per level by increments of 1), my level 5 pigs produce 50 (and decrease per level by increments of 5), and my level 5 cows produce 120 (and decrease per level by increments of 6).

    My fetilizers are dropping so fast now...It has really changed. I used to have so many i never worried about them. I wonder what they did, and why they are telling us they didnt change anything. They must have.....

    mai I really don't think the CM lied to me when they said there had been no change

    The amount quoted in the info button has not changed. Have you checked, before and after collecting, that you are getting the amount you are supposed to? It may be a bug that you are not being credited with the amount you should. Like the irritating bug in one of the co-op projects where the amount collected doesn't register.

    And if you are not getting the right amount contact Support with information and facts so that it can be corrected

    Just a little side bar...in the higher lvls you find that one of your tasks will be to use 10 humus on your fields...this task seems to pop up for like 1 out of 4 tasks ((if not it sure feels like it) and the fact you can only made a max. of 8 at a time...well you get the idea. Just something to look forward to...I just love to spread sunshine on your days ahead...lol Be safe and God bless.

    LOL Irish I have been there for a long time! Fortunately I have plenty of leaves and humus. Not an excess mind you, but plenty. Ethan and rhon, support still hasn't contacted me about the fertilizer problem. I now have 4 lvl 5 cows, and a fully upgraded silo, and still couldn't sustain more than the 4 orchards I have on main farm. I want to expand and put almonds on Gourmet farm but can't. This is seriously beginning to bum me out. On a happy note I love the camping! But I really need the poop! :(

    Yes. They have change it on one of there updates. I have not change on the way i play. I was doing 3 cherry two times in 24hr and two sets of 3 apples in 24hr and i have 7 cows level 5. Two pigs and two chickens. I also had a stock pile of fertilizer that went down to all most 0. Now i had to stop the cherry to build the fertilizer up again. Its just another way for them at GGS to F with us.

    I haven't noticed anything different. Dung for me was the hardest to collect right from the beginning. I have lots now but that is because I have the water tower, so I don't need as much as I did in the beginning.

    Edited to say that I don't need as much fertilizer as I did in the beginning lol.

    Hi! We are beginners at level 15. We would like to know how to make enough dung so that our 1 apple orchard can grow more. It's taking too long for us to accumulate enough dung to get the silo going for fertilizer. Currently we have 2 Level 2 chicken coops, 1 level 1 cowshed and 1 level 1 pigsty. What options we have available to us are to buy level 1 pigsties, or cowsheds, and level 1 or 2 chicken coops all with dollars. Or a water tower or more land with gold. Can anyone please give us their advice? What would be the best combination of things to buy? Or the optimal ratio of animals to orchards to have on a farm? We can buy a cherry orchard at next level so any suggestions about the best orchards to have would be helpful too. Thanks !!

    I have to agree I always had a pile of poop but now can only just keep orchards running and that's not fertilizing cherries all the time
