Livestock’s a rip off

Currently you can buy Cows, Chickens (level 4 required), and Sheep (level 7 required) in Farmville. But let me tell you why its a bad idea to spend your well earned coins on livestock.

A sheep costs 700 coins and harvests for 28 coins every three days. An apple tree also harvests for 28 coins every 3 days, but the purchase cost is only 325 coins. That’s less than half the cost! In addition, the apple tree takes up less square footage on your farm and you can start buying apple trees at level 1.

The story is similar for Cows and Chickens as well. Cows cost 300 coins and harvest every day for 6 coins. For only 225 coins, you can get a Cherry Tree and although it takes twice as long to harvest, it earns more than twice that of a cow at 18 coins. There is no value in purchasing livestock when compared to trees.
