FarmVille Barn Raising: Expand Your Storage!
We complained – Zynga listened! Well, at least about the lack of reasonable storage they did. As of an hour or so ago, FarmVille released the ability to host a Barn Raising; allowing you to increase the storage space in both your barns and your tool sheds.
Of interest to many as well, you will see in one of the pictures below that we will also be able to expand our Dairy Farms, Garden Sheds and….. Chicken Coops!
As you can see below, there are 3 levels to each expansion; giving you more room at each level. Here is what we know so far:
Barns:
Level 1 (Red Barn) – increases storage from 0 spots to 6 spots (your initial purchase)
Level 2 (Big Barn) – increases storage from 6 spots to 11 spots
Level 3 (Huge Barn) – increases storage from 11 spots to 18 spots
Tool Sheds:
Level 1 (Tool Shed) – increases storage from 0 spots to 2 spots (your initial purchase)
Level 2 (Big Shed) – increases storage from 2 spots to 7 spots
Level 3 (Huge Shed) – increases storage from 7 spots to 14 spots
To start a barn raising, simply click on your barn or tool shed and select Expand Storage. Select the building you wish to expand and it will post your Barn Raising event to your wall. Simply have 10 friends click the link within 3 days and voila! Your building is automatically expanded. Friends earn 100 coins for helping out, and you can watch your progress at any time by refreshing your farm and selecting the Expand Storage option again.

Barn Raising Earn 100 Coins For Helping
As nice as it is, there is no need to reply to every persons link with a comment or a link to your own raising.
If everyone posts once and people help a large group of posts above them, this will work a lot smoother than it is now.
Thanks for understanding everyone!

Keep in mind that there IS a chicken coop glitch with these barn expansions. I have 4 coops now, thanks to the glitch. If you need instructions – I’ll post them again.

how do u get 4 cichen coops ? :O
It would be great to have more coops, but I heard rumor that some people were loosing chickens out of them. Not sure if this is true or not. I am still trying to fix my farm after the glitch last week. Half my animals wound up spread out all over the place.

helped
have moving up to the next level.
Ok – more chicken coops.
1) Move your original coop to the top right corner of your farm.
2) Do a barn raising. After your barn raising is done, post another raising.
3) Move the original chicken coop and there should be a least one empty one under it. One time I had 1 empty, another time I had 2 empty coops under it.
4) Move the empty coop out of the way and put the original back into the top right corner.
5) Repeat.
I haven’t lost any chickens yet. Don’t know if I will….
Wow, that’s great! Thanks for the info Gina.
