FarmVille 2 - The Duck Nursery!

reposted from Official FarmVille 2 blog

The Duck Nursery Feature is broken up into three consecutive development stages (quest sets) that you can complete at your own pace.

The Duck Nursery is here, which means you can now raise Ducklings! Use this building to develop the personalities of your Ducklings and train them to produce extra resources! If you are level 12 or higher, you will see the following pop up. Clicking on “Place Duck Nursery” will give you the ability to place the Nursery Frame on your Farm.

Before you can start raising your Ducklings, you will need to build your Nursery. Your first step is collecting Building Materials. You will need the following items to start building your Duck Nursery:

• Chalk Boards
• Duck Feed
• Duck Nestings

To Collect Chalk Boards, 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 Duck Feed and Duck Nestings to your Neighbors. If you do not wish to wait for your friends, you can skip any of these tasks for Farm Bucks.

Once you have collected the required items, click on the “start building” button at the bottom of the construction menu.

Now that the Nursery is almost complete, you will need a little help from your Neighbors to finish the job. The Duck Nursery 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 helpers with Farm Bucks.

Using your Duck Nursery (Development Quests)

Raising a Duckling requires love, affection, and special attention. That’s why the Duck Nursery is here to help you! The Nursery is broken up into three developmental stages (quest sets): Choose a Bonus, Choose a Personality, and Name your Duckling. Each development stage (quest set) has three tasks that have to be completed. As you complete each development stage, you will unlock the next stage. Once your Nursery is up, you will need to place one baby duck inside.

Note: You can raise any baby duck in the Nursery, including ducks available for Coins. Click on the Duck Nursery to open the Quest Menu.

Development Quests – Choose a Bonus

The first step is to Choose a Bonus. You can choose between a Fertilizer Bonus, a Feather Bonus and an Appetite Bonus (you will receive two extra Fertilizer or Feathers every time you feed the Adult duck).

Note: You can only choose one Specialty per Duckling.

Once you have selected a Bonus, click the green “Confirm” button to turn the page to the next set of development quests. Click on the “Make it” button for the recipe you wish to Craft and you will be sent to your Kitchen and/or Workshop. If you would like a quick tutorial on how to Craft, please visit our Official Guides: Crafting Kitchen and Crafting Workshop

The first development stage is as follows:

As you have collected the required items, click on the blue “Use” buttons to watch your avatar train your baby duck! Once you have performed all three of the tasks, click the turquoise “Complete & Share” button.

Development Quests – Choose a Personality

The next step is to pick a Personality for your baby duck. You can choose between Posh, Sporty, and Scary. The Personality you pick will determine how your Duckling will behave once it is an adult (i.e. animate).

Note: You can only choose one Personality per Duckling.

 

Once you have selected a Personality, click the green “Confirm” button to turn the page to the next set of development quests. Click on the “Make it” button for the recipe you wish to Craft and you will be sent to your Kitchen and/or Workshop.

The second development stage is as follows:

Once you have collected the required items, click on the blue “Use” buttons to watch your avatar train your baby duck! Once you have performed all three of the tasks, click the turquoise “Complete & Share” button.

Development Quests – Name your Duckling

The last step is to name your Duckling. You can use up to 14 characters (with spaces):

Once you have typed in a name, click the green “Confirm” button, then the page will turn, and the next page will be your last set of development quests. Click on the “Make it” button for the recipe you wish to Craft and you will be sent to your Kitchen and/or Workshop.

As you have collected the required items, click on the blue “Use” buttons to watch your avatar train your baby duck! Once you have performed all three of the tasks, click the turquoise “Complete & Share” button.

Congratulations! You have raised your Duckling into an Adult that will produce an extra resource! Click your duck to move and place it on your farm:

Crop Packets

For a limited time only, you can earn special Baby Ginger Crop Packets! In order to earn these Packets, you must earn Duck Medallions. As you raise Ducklings, you will earn Duck Medallions. If you unlocked a water plant, you will see a green button “Redeem Prize”. Click on the button to open the menu of the Duck Medallion board:

Once you have earned all 4 water plants, you will unlock the Baby Ginger Crop Packet! You will be able to use this Crop for 14 days. Click the turquoise “Share and Go to Market” button to share some rewards with friends!

Note: You have limited time to earn the Baby Ginger Crop Packet. If you do not earn enough Duck Medallions within theallotted time, the Crop Packet will disappear and you will be unable to claim it.
