In honor of the Spring season upon us, FarmVille has rolled out the Spring
Basket, which requires you to fill it with colorful eggs that can be traded in
for redeemable prizes. There are four ways to acquire Easter eggs for this
mini-game, and we list them all here so you will can have the most egg-cellent
collection among all of your FarmVille neighbors.
1. Entice fellow farmers to send you FarmVille Easter eggs as free gifts
Head over to the Free Gifts section of the game, and you'll notice that five
colorful eggs are now available for gifting:
*Pink Spring Egg
*Orange Spring Egg
*Purple Spring Egg
*Blue Spring Egg
*Red Spring Egg
You can send these eggs to up to 30 people per day, and of course, ask friends
to send them back to you. As usual, if you give you will be more likely to
receive.
Or, if you want take a more pro-active approach, ask up to 30 friends a day to
send Easter Eggs (via the Spring Basket pop-up screen). Friends who respond will
receive a special bonus for helping you on your egg quest.
2. Find Easter eggs while fertilizing FarmVille neighbors' farms
As an added twist, you will not be completely reliant on friends to score oodles
of Easter eggs -- you will also be able to find them while fertilizing friends
farms. A nice touch, especially since we've already spent so much time this
month pestering friends for gold and La Maison parts. An important note: we had
to do quite a bit of fertilizing to find this one egg; about six or seven farms
to find just one egg!
3. Buy Easter eggs in the FarmVille Market
If you just want to get it over with already -- you can opt to buy them in the
FarmVille market. You can buy five Spring Eggs (Easter eggs) for 5 FarmVille
Cash. Depending on how many you need to buy, this could potentially turn into a
pricey acquisition.
4. Troll the Facebook News Feed to find friends giving away extra Easter
Eggs
Once you find eggs while fertilizing a neighbor's farm, you will have the option
to share a few extras with friends by posting a notice to your Facebook wall. To
that point: your neighbors will *ideally* do the same. Keep a sharp eye out for
friends who find eggs and want to share -- that can be an effective way to have
your Spring basket overflowing with eggs in no time.
