Important- I show you how to get free
credits at the end of this report!
SOME BARN BUDDY TIPS BASIC INFORMATION
• Most important thing! You can disable annoying sounds
and music!!!
• Rule of Thumb: Grab all free gifts Barn Buddy offers you
as soon as you see them.
• You can adjust the Facebook settings so you do not
annoy your friends with every little thing you do with
these games. Disable the Automatically Post option on
Facebook
• Organize your time so you work on the tasks that give
you the most points first.
• When Barn Buddy changes their rules, like the did when
they decided to let people buy flowers without a
license. They will give the people who previously bought
the now useless license a credit.
• Buy a Sign. Be careful once you name your farm it
cannot be changed without buying another sign. You get
Experience Points by cleaning the sign every 12 hours
CREDITS, EXPERIENCE POINTS, AND COINS –
THE BACKBONE OF THE GAME
If you do not figure this out, you will never be able to master
the Barn Buddy game. Everything you do involves one, or a
combination of these points.. Pay close attention to the
details about the tasks you need to do and their options.
Some require only Coins, others only Credits. Some will give
you Experience Points and Coins others credit and Coins, or
some will be credit and Experience Points. These are the
better tasks to get involved with!
Credit Information
• Some Barn Buddy Items can only be bought with credit,
other give you a choice of credit and Coins.
• You start out your Barn Buddy adventure with 125
Credits.
• Whenever you see a FREE credit offer, grab it. Sometime
it might come with a barn or something you already
have, take it anyway.
Experience Points Information
• Experience Points are the only way to progress through
the game to higher levels. Be sure to do all the things
you can do each day to earn those Experience Points.
• On the top of the Barn Buddy page is a total of your
Experience Points. Place your cursor on top of the point
ans it tells you how many more you need for the next
level.
• Never pass up opportunities for Experience Points, do all
the tasks they offer, every day. Every little bit helps
• Plowing your fields can earn you three points per field
• Water your crops each and every day.
• Unlike Farmville, crops in Barn Buddy do not die. So if
you do not water, you will not lose your crops. You will
get fewer crops to sell, but they will not dry up and die
• You cannot over water, so too much water will not kill
the crops, so feel free to water and have your friends
water as much as you want.
• You can not stock up on water by over watering on one
day to prevent drying out the next.. You need to tend to
the farm every day.
• Spraying for bugs and weeds earns Experience Points.
• There are Daily Tasks for each animal.
• When it comes time to Harvest Crops or Animals you
earn Experience Points and Coins
• Do all of the above for your friends. The more friends
you have, and help, the more points you can rack up
• Use these Experience Points to buy decorations. Once a
day you get a free decoration, but can only get it with a
certain number of Credits. Decorations can add 10 or
more points to your account.
Getting Coins Information
This is the retail side of things. You need Coins to buy stuff
like crops, animals and decorations or anything else Barn
Buddy invents along the way. You also get Coins when you
sell or your crops or animal products.
• When the time comes to harvest, and Barn Buddy tells
you how long you have to wait, ( see Tool Bar
information) you must quickly sell your crops
• If you wait to long, you run the risk of having the stolen.
• Some animals bring in Coins income. Cows you can sell
milk, chickens produce eggs to sell and sheep get
sheared to sell wool
• Pay attention to the timing so you can get the highest
benefit
• Sell off extra Gifts. If twelve friends sent the same gift,
you might sell a few of them to earn some more Coins
• Earn Coins when doing tasks for friends
BARN BUDDY ANIMAL TIPS
Animals and crops are your livelihood in Barn Buddy just like
on a real farm. You earn Experience Points every time you
tend to their needs, clean, feed, water, etc. Some animals
will earn you Coins because you can sell what they produce.
(eggs, milk)
• In general you will learn how to invest in high profit
animals first, then add others
• A Barn Buddy dog is crucial Either refer 10 friends
(easiest) or use your accumulatedCredits. What the dog
does is protect your property from so called friends
disguised as thieves
• When you have a dog you cannot have your crops stolen
or an bugs placed on your crops by these thieving
friends. If you own a dog, and someone tried to steal
your crops, they get caught with a nasty Barn Buddy
Bite!
• The dog must be fed regularly, do not forget. Or it will
not be inclined to "bite!"
• A cow is a staple and perfect for getting Experience
Points for all its care, but you can also earn Coins for
selling the milk. Cows can only be bought with Coins
• A pig only good for the Experience Points you get from
the daily cleaning . No chance to bring home the bacon
on this one
• Chickens are an "eggstravaganza" for you! You get
Experience Points for tending to their needs, and you
can get them to lay eggs every six hours. These you can
sell for Coins. Who is going to do that 2:00AM feeding?
• Sheep will give you both Experience Points and the
chance to periodically sell the wool. No wool over your
eyes on this one
BARN BUDDY CROP TIPS
Crops like animals need tended and harvested. The extra
element here is you not only need to tend to the crops, but
also the soil. Fertile soil brings higher harvest amounts. So,
to keep crops going you buys seeds, tend to the soil, keep
them watered and bug free, and then harvest for dollars..
• In general, the rule of thumb is to invest in high profit
crops
• Pay attention to how fast the crops grow and if they
regrow after you harvest (an how often)
• When you are first starting out, to gain Experience
Points and Coins you may want to do some of the faster
growing crops, then as soon as possible the more
profitable longer growth cycle crops for a higher return
• The way to optimize crops profits is by planting
according to your daily schedule. Do not choose to plant
a crop that takes 6 hours to plant on a day you only have
3 hours scheduled. This opens the door to stealing and
damaging by others
• This is where working with your friends can come in.(see
Friends)
• Fertilizer Facts: The lowest grade fertilizer can only be
purchased with Coins
• Higher grade Fertilizer can only be purchased with
credit or received as a gift
• Flowers can be expensive, but recent changes to the
rules have made it easier. Formerly you needed a license
to buy flowers. Now you do not
• Lower grade flowers can be bought with Coins. Special
flowers need special Credits
GET BY WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM YOUR FRIENDS
• Basically, the more Friends and Neighbors you have, the
more chances you get to earn Experience Points. Every
time a friend does something for you, or you do
something for a friend, up rack up points. The more
friends, the more points. Simple as can be. Kind of like
Brownie Points. A friend in need is a friend in deed
• When referring friends to Barn Buddy, add a personal
message to the Facebook Invite. They will look at you
more positively and may-be improve your chance of
them joining
• Customize the messages your Friends see when they
come on to your property and do stuff for you. Go to
Preferences. There you can put in a personal and custom
made message they willl read when then do a task. Be
nice!
• Your Friend Groups can become potential sources for
some Barn Buddy helps, additional cheats and additional
tips
• Referring ten friends get you a free dog. Dogs are the
only way to prevent your crops from being stolen or
sabotaged
• Visiting friends and neighbors frequently is good form
and it helps you both to gets Experience Points and Coins
• Arrange a schedule with some friends. If you can never
play the game during certain hours, say you have a job,
and a friend is available during that time, arrange for
them to go in and tend to things during those hours you
cannot. It will keep everything fresh and updated. So if
the pig needs washed every 6 hours, and one of those
time frames you can't do, your friend can go in and wash
the pig then, so by the time you get home, it is ready for
another pig bath
• Help your friend plow
• Water their crops
• Spray for bugs and weeds.
• Care and harvest animals.
• Sending gifts to friends will earn you points These offers
do not come along often, so take full advantage. Your
friends will return the favor.
• You can buy Credits for your friends. Click on Earn
Credits at the bottom of the page and scroll until you
find the Purchase Credit for friends options.
• Be careful, if you try to harm your friends or neighbors
by stealing, or planting weeds and bugs, as pay back is
never fun. Do unto others works quite well in Barn
Buddy. You might want to remember although they are
fake friends on Barn Buddy, in the real world you have to
talk to these people in person at some point!
GIFTS FROM BARN BUDDY OR TO AND FROM YOUR
FRIENDS
Look for Freebies from Barn Buddies. Sometimes they will
offer to give you something for free, like a barn, and it will
come with free Credits.
Always be on the look for Free Gift opportunities. These gifts
do not cost you anything but will save your friends money,
they may return the favor.
Free gifts of things like fertilizer than only can be purchased
with Credits are a particular value.
BEAT THE SYSTEM TECHNIQUE
There are not a whole lot of sophisticated Barn Buddy
cheats. The best thing you can do, to at least feel like you
are cheating, and earn double the trouble points is to set up
a second Facebook account. This NEW account can feed
things to your REAL account. Kind of like being your own
friend and neighbor. Your own fall guy may be more like it.
Here are tips to make this work.
• Create a new Facebook account. You need a new name
and different email address ( most email accounts let
you create a bunch of email accounts.)
• Your REAL self will be your NEW account's ONLY friend
• NEW account, once up and running, will then go into
your REAL farm and put a bunch of weeds and bugs.
Then Log Off the NEW account
• Go to the REAL account and you then pick up 2
Experience Points for each weed and bug you spray.
These are the double trouble Experience Points
• If your REAL account has a dog, which is a good thing, to
make the above plan work you need to plan ahead for
this raid. On raid day, do not feed the REAL Barn Buddy
dog.. Annoyed, hungry dogs will not protect the REAL
farm, and so the dog will not "bite" your NEW account.
They can wreck havoc with not dog worries
• Once you reap your extra Experience Points, simply feed
the dog on the REAL account and all is well, you have a
happy dog again ready to protect you from other evil
friends
• Along the same lines, from you REAL account you can go
to NEW account and steal crops, and you can also do
good friend tasks that get you points and experience,
like watering, and spraying
• NEW account can send gifts to your REAL account. This
gives you the chance to get more gift Coins.

BONUS OFFERS MUST BE GRABBED WHENEVER THEY
COME ALONG
Barn Buddy knows how to keep their Barn Buddy families
happy, keep giving them ways to earn Experience Points,
Credits and Coins! They will offer from time to time Bonus
Offers. If you do not take advantage of them, it will take
longer to move to the next level. Sometime they might be
discount prices for items you need. Well, that helps by saving
Coins for other things you need to do, saving Credits sand
Experience Points that are needed to move up to the next
level. Here are some Bonus Offers to keep your eyes open
and ready to pounce on when they come.
Bonus Holiday Items: During a holiday you will get the
chance to buy a holiday decoration. You not only get
decoration credit, but it may need some upkeep, so you also
get Experience Points each time do whatever task is needed
to keep the decoration going..
Bonus Animal Opportunities: There will be from time to time
limited edition animals available This means they only will offer a
pre-determined number of this animal Once they are bought, they
are gone. These animals might be
expensive, but will also require a whole bunch of tending, so
it is a way to pile on Experience Points to your account.
Might be your only chance ever to own a unicorn!
Animal Sales: There will often be one day sales with certain
animals on sale for half price. Use these sales wisely.
Remember the fewer Coins you use, the more are then
available for some of the other Bonus opportunities.
Some Bonus opportunities will not tell you how many Bonus
Coins you can earn with a Bonus offer. They just say mystery
Coins. So you never know, some might give you lots, others
just some. Either way you need as many Coins as you can get
to buy more barn stuff, so take it!

not cost you anything but will save your friends money, they

particular value. This would be things like high quality
fertilizer(which translates to more crops to tend, harvest and
sell.)

time, free gift offers.
ADVANCED OR MISCELLANEOUS TIPS AND ADVICE
You might need both Google Chrome AND Mozilla Firefox on
your computer. Some tricks and offers only work with one or
the other. You can log in to the game from either.
Before you can use the Buy Instant option you must have
1430 points.
To protect your farm from thieves, all you have to do is
rearrange your house to a new location. This prevents people
from stealing your crops.
You can manipulate this to your advantage by going to Barn
Buddy Friends, right click and find Quality Menu. This lets
you change a classification for a particular friend to Low. For
these friends when you go to their farm, there will be no
house, therefore no protections.
Expanding your farm is a must-- it is really the only way to
earn enough points to get to the next level. Without instant
buy options, you may not be able to expand until 3rd level
Birthday Cake: 1000 Credits and a birthday cake that
Facebook automatically sends you on your birthday. Keep the
cake 7 days and sell it or sell it immediately for 10,000 Coins
(that must be some awesome cake)
Cake Trick: Go to your Facebook profile and change your
birthday to the next day and then you will get the cake and
Coins. You Might not want to over do this one.
Pay attention to post holiday sales so you can stock up on
holiday items for the next year at discount prices. There was
one in January for Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas
decorations
Hide Item Feature: Use the Arrange Items icon and it will let
you hide some of the items you have.
This is needed when a special offer of a new improved item
(like a Paris Hilton Dog) comes along. These items will have
added features, added benefits. You are only allowed one
dog, and are not allowed to sell it or send it away. So you
just hide it, so you can buy the improved dog. This will work
on any of those offers, that offer something better than you
already have, but Barn Buddy does not let you sell or destroy
the old one.
