Oh wow, I didn’t even see the bug barn until you pointed it out! I love this new habitat!

I wonder if the fireflies from the event a few months ago can go in there.

Honey jars can also give you whole beekeeper outfits.

Also the bee swarm is an adorable pet....I just don't know how to share pictures here.

It's just luck. They drop the item very rarely.

I haven't turned in a collection yet, but I will sometime today.

Anyway, since the prizes include a "bee tree" decoration, it got me thinking if it was finally available to android now/ or if you could finally see the prize from an android phone.

And to my hope, it was! I can now finally see the bee trees I bought a few months ago. For reference;

https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?111096-Mystery-Regarding

Long story short I couldn't see them a few months ago while playing an android phone. But I now can! I'm glad they're starting to make some decorations visible on both android and iOS.

I only have 4 prizes left to collect (bee tree, beehive, bee feeder & bee cake). I'm hoping to get another swarm personally.

Are you still struggling to get the bee frames from the vines? I have some to spare if you'd like them?

Congratulations! I only have 4 prizes as well to collect/get. But a bit different from your missing list.

I still need to get;
Bee Tree
Beehive
Bee Feeder
Bee Keeper Gnome.

Otherwise, I have the rest of the list.

Though, like you (if there's a possibility) I also want another bee swarm-pet.

Usually these events are limited to one pet.
Does anyone have two Bee Swarms?

Honestly? I'm not sure. I hoped there's a chance that I can get two, but the likelyhood of that happening is very low - if at all.

If I do ever manage to get two (if that is even possible) I'll let you know. But I don't see it happening because I haven't seen it happen before with others player(s) yet, either.

I hope I receive another beehive cake before the event is over (if nothing else)

I really want another one (a second) so I can place it near my beehive that I will eventually get at level 30.

I remember with he first few events with this format I got two or three of the pets for some events. Recently (2019/2020) I never get more than one so maybe they added a limit.

“Piper’s Beehive frame” ...with the green.... In the last two days I have received ONE.... used at least 20 tools. Why? I practically every event it’s the parts from the mine that most people have trouble getting. Why? Hardly seems fair.

Good you posted this. I was wondering why I haven’t gotten a 2nd Bee Tree as I’ve turned in way more than 23x.

I’m thinking maybe there’s a boo-boo somewhere so that the Bee Tree is capped at 1, like the Bee Swarm. I say boo-boo (and not intentional) cuz in past similar events, none of the decos are capped. It’s unfortunate, since I really like the Bee Trees. I know it’s in shop for 25 gems each, but since it’s being offered here in event as a prize, I figured I could save some gems. Oh well.



Ok. Literally 3 minutes after I posted above, I went back to farm, turned in and got my 2nd Bee Tree!! So thrilled!

Go perfectly with the fireflies!

This event was so great! I wonder what the team will do next...Halloween is coming up...Halloween 2019 was amazing with the Jack o’ Lantern Pet and the Slimes. It’s going to be hard for the team to top it!

I have plenty of extras if you'd like some.
My feed mills dropped tonns and I gave up trying to complete the decors.

Does anyone know if this event will allow us to be able to extend the play time after the event is over, by using gems? I know I’ve seen this feature in the past, but never needed to use it. Also, if it is available, does anyone know how many gems it usually is? Thanks

Also, does anyone have a picture of the jars of honey prize, placed on their farm?

No unfortunately events here don?t work that way. After an event is over, all the special buildings become decors and drops stop happening. Event items can still be present in you barn (i try to keep one of each item as a souvenir) and u can sell then to reclaim the space, however other players will not be able to even see them in your market place. An S8 bot comes by eventually to sweep them up so u can have ur market place slot back.

I?m upset. I haven?t gotten a single bee swarm or tree. I?ve turned in at least 30+.

A good collect turn in.

Had I actually not been busy the other day (a day before yesterday) I probably would've been able to turn in more and possibly get better prizes. So I'm not going to complain on what I got (at least not now, like I always do) because I didn't fully put in the effort to get more.

Anyway.

My final tally of what I got

5x Autumn Paths
2x Stained Wood Arbour
2x Stained Wood Wagon
2x Sleeping Bag
1x Beehive Cake
1x Bee Swarm
1x Bee Tree (plus I already bought some two months ago, so it brings my collection up to 3, but I only won one from this event)

I didn't do the side goal, just because of not wanting the Jar of Honey.

But I like this more than the ladybug building that we have use to turn in collections as it takes awhile to be able to collect items, unless you're using the boosted buildings. Unlike this one, where you don't have to wait days off end to get all the collectibles.

I?m upset. I haven?t gotten a single bee swarm or tree. I?ve turned in at least 30+.

No luck for me either. Turned in my last beehive box and got a bee cake. I turned in 44 hive boxes by my count of decorations. Got everything but the swarm. I didn?t spend any gems so not a bad take. I guess I?ll have to be happy with just my fireflies.

Congrats to those who got it! Is the animations identical to the fireflies? Do they also scatter when u touch/poke them? That?s my favourite animation of for these pets.

I?m not too happy with the jars of honey. They?re small and only drop one item, so it was pretty useless after I got it.

We will have to see if it comes back. One thing I always do is at the beginning of the event, I buy the limited time habitat as soon as I get it. On iOS devices, you can store habitats. If I don’t win the pet I just leave it in storage. Usually pet habitats are shared by more than one pet over a variety of events.
