These pets are super cute. If nothing else I want the jar of Yeast pet. As I don't think I'll be able to take home 1st place again like last leaderboard.

I wonder if the Jar of yeast pet is an exotic or regular pet.

What does stationary pet mean?

I think stationary.

Everyone note this is a short Leaderboard.
Meaning Rocket Rides are available!

[TwixAndScones]

What does stationary pet mean?

I looked at another farm story 2 thread mentioning stationary, and it seems like stationary may refer to exotic, is the correct or wrong?

Sorry, I'm just confused as English isn't a native language, and since this is the first time I've heard the word "stationary" being used.

Yes stationary is the same as exotic.
Sorry we use both terms.
The Jar of Yeast looks interesting.

[Lapetshop7]

I think the bakery penguin is just a decoration.

I think the bakery penguin is just a decoration.

Yes, I accidentally uploaded a picture of the penguin. I plan on placing the penguin near the bakery, especially if it is just an animated penguin decor, like the "Melon Sales" penguin was for the donkey event a while ago.


---
Anyway. I bought 4 more pigs (my maximum that I can buy for now) I now have 8.

Hoping maybe? That it might boost my chances of winning the butter-fly.

Though since this is a rather short leaderboard event, rocket-like boosters are more possible to get/happen, so who knows if that will actually help much, especially when the rocket boosters come through.

Anyway. If nothing else, I at least want to reach the milestone to get the "Jar of Yeast" pet.

[TwixAndScones]

I think the bakery penguin is just a decoration.

And like you said, you are correct! It is just a decoration, though I do like it. Next mission is to get that jar of yeast! I've never been this impressed with leaderboard pets and there cute detailing/puns to it.

Anyway. The Bakery Penguin is just cute though, I just gotten it less than 15 minutes ago, and cannot wait to pair it with the Bakers Rack (from the other event) when I can turn in all collections needed to.

56089
56090

I'm in first place, but again, since this is a very short timed leaderboard, I am not going to celebrate a victory, until it actually looks like one.

As rocket boosts are still possible to happen. I just haven't received any, YET.

Though, I am turning in multiple plane orders, and will soon fill up my 2nd market bus in less than an hour from now.

So all in all, even if I don't remain in first place or finish out in first, it's still getting me a fast way to get the Jar of Yeast.

[TwixAndScones]

Anyway, while I do believe some people have used gem boosters in my particular leaderboard, it's not much of bother that I've been knocked down to a 5th. I'm sure I'll continually be knocked or have moments where I am back and forth on the leaderboard, especially since there is roughly 4 days left, but I will at least try to remain in 3-6th place, to get the pig in the bread bowl.

Because I want to place it near my bakery, seeing as I'll get the bakers rack from the other event. And would like another decoration - pig in bread bowl (or so I assume it is?) to place next to it. Since I already have my penguin placed with a different decoration.

Anyway. Going in to the short week leaderboards, I won't pay attention or try not to in regards to my ranking, or close how other players are to me, but rather only pay attention to milestones or what prizes are being offered, as I get them/want to know what they are of.

56092

I'll expand or wait to until the final results, I would expand now, but, I don't want to expand and have extra space I don't need yet. Especially since I still don't know if I'll even win the pig.

[TwixAndScones]

Yes! I finally revived the Jar of Yeast, and like Judy and Paul thought about the pet being exotic, they were right.

56098

Anyway. I may look into a 25 money iTunes card to look into creating a bread shop before this is all over.

56097

But I love exotic pets, it's hat? Looking thing moves after you feed it.

It also looks like it has eyes? Very cool! I'm glad I didn't have to fight to stay on a place on the leaderboard to win it.

All I had to do was reach a milestone :)

[KewlMusic]

I have earned over 3500 leaderboard points but still have not received the yeast jar. I’ve repeatedly checked my cellar and have rebooted numerous times, still no jar.

Who do I need to contact regarding this issue?

Any help is greatly appreciated. TY!

Thank you, Judy! ��

[TwixAndScones]

I do dislike how the rocket boosts are random. All the players who have received the boosts have gotten way more than I have.

I only got one, a 400 point booster - which in comparison to others in my list that I am competing against and who have gotten way more than me, that isn't much, at all.

If it wasn't for me doing all the bus/plane orders I am doing, I would barely just have 1,500 points, instead of the 2000 I have now. The cards are stacked against me winning really anything of value this leaderboard due to me not getting that massive point booster(s) like others have gotten.

It's a pain that these are random, and I just feel like my points that I've earned by hard work, by plane and bus orders aren't planning out, due to me not really getting any booster(s) this time around :(

I think I should just be fine with the Jar of Yeast, especially since all the other players haven't received there milestones to get the boosts yet.

By the time everyone may receive there boost, I may be over 10th place or not much under. And after 6th place, nothing is really of decent value to even try fighting to win for, at least for me - that is.

I am now stopping the leaderboard.

I definitely do not have a chance now. Some of the people in my leaderboard (thanks to them getting rocket boosters) have over or almost 5,000 points.

I didn't get more than a 400 point booster.

All of my points have been gotten via (since I didn't get much of a booster) wheel spinning, the fountain, bus and plane orders. I only have a measly amount of 2,600 points, again, not much if I'm trying to win anything of value.

I'm in 7th place now, I'm sure I'll continue to drop as people get more rocket boosts. It's just not worth the hard work to finish this leaderboard. Especially when it doesn't even make an impact or help (on my score) in the end.

For clarification, I am not angry that I'm not going to win anything of value, but it's just the fact I didn't really have a chance to - to begin with anyway.

Though, I absolutely love the Jar of Yeast! I am glad I didn't have to fight to win or get that. It's a cute pet :)

Yes, I should probably do so. Live a little and not be so saddened about it.

Also the "baker penguin" - absolutely adorable.

Where can butterfly live? Lucky i won this x

Wow, this butterfly is huge! Too many carbs for my liking.

U can see what it can live in if u flip it over in storage and read the description. This pet can live in the mythical meadow, gnome gathering and crawlers hollow

[caterpilar88]

Yea but it not allowing me to put in gnome cathering, keep asking me buy the gentle gelable 500 gems but I already got it full animal in side, yea big i like but wish the wings is natural fairy not that bread lol

[TwixAndScones]

From my other expansion the other day (costed over 34,000? Coins I believe)
It didn't leave me much coins to spare or use, so I'm glad I finished out in 10th. It gave me 7,500 coins, and since I only had 1,000 earlier, it helps. :)

[JustKay]

If u have three pets in the gnome gathering then u cannot fit another one in. Put an older pet in storage. This only works in iOS I think.

[caterpilar88]

Funny, last time people complaining about the caterpillar so tiny, now s8 make gnome n butterflies so huge

[TwixAndScones]

I can now see what you mean, the butter-fly is a big pet (I just stumbled across a farm that had it)

Definitely not hard to miss, even if you weren't particularly looking for it. I wasn't and not even a minute later, I seen it flapping it's wings about.

It's cute, but also strange. Congratulations to all those who won it or won what they wanted! :)

[caterpilar88]

No i have gnome cathering 2 space available plus methical meadow free space but not allowing me to place it, is that something wrong?

[PookieBear50]

It is possible that the Butter Fly may have incorrect information on the back of its card (it has happened before). Try Crawler's Hollow (which, to be honest, makes the most sense...Gnome Gathering and Mythical Meadow for a giant insect with buttered bread for wings seems very unlikely). You can also pull out a few other habitats and see if it will go into one of those.

I made the bakery penguin Lucas The Cook’s small assistant.

Ok the Butter Fly Issue for habitats has been resolved!
A huge Thank You to our Storm Team!

This has been resolved now! The butter fly should be able to go into the Mythical Meadow, Gnome Gathering, Wildlife Den, or Crawler's Hollow.

Yes I know we can sell it. The question is can you buy it? The last time I asked neighbor for help w. exotic pet food as I was out, I couldn’t buy it, it was invisible.

Weird. Because I've sold some and people have bought it with no problems.

I feel like this might be an Android vs iPhones issue.

S8 also has bots that seem to sweep markets for unbuyable items like old event parts. Maybe a bot picked up your exotic pet food

I'm not sure. I don't always got a notification for when someone buys something. So I couldn't trace back the name, or see if I had seen it (the name) before.

When I can I put in on "promotion" it takes 30 minutes to an hour before it finally gets bought. As when I don't - it takes 2-3 hours for it to get sold, even sometimes longer.

Personally, even though I've sold some and have exotics myself, I cannot find any in the newspaper to buy.

You could be correct with the bot(s) buying it.

Im not sure, but it's weird I don't see any on neighbours farm(s) or any to buy in the newspaper.

I've used my other farms after I've listed exotic pet feed, and it appears as "sold" even though it's clearly not. As I go back onto my main farm that sold it, and it's still very much there, not sold - at all.

Which it makes it even more strange, because I undersell my exotic feed completely, and I know I'm not the only person in my neighbourhood who has an exotic pet. For it to sit in my stall for almost more than a few hours off end, makes it strange. As when I undersell my other stuff, it doesn't last more in the market than 20-30 minutes. Especially when I put an item on "promoted" or even undersell it completely - even if it isn't an item of particular need or value at the time, it still only takes a short time to sell.

I might be overthinking it, though. But it's still strange.
