Farmville continues to come out with new and interesting sheep designs and special features. One of the more recent additions has been the appearance of Electric Sheep. Though there is no formal name for this sheep, electric seems to be what most people use to describe them. Just in case you are still unsure what this type of sheep looks like, here is an example:
Notice how the stars have a bright green outline around them. The neat thing about these sheep is that you may already have them and not even know it. The outline around the sheep turns on for a short period of time and then turns off. So pay attention to your sheep and if you find one, grab it and breed it to make more. Another aspect about the Electric sheep is that the color of the electric outline can be different. So far, I have seen white, green, blue and red Electric outline colors. In the Popping Colors sheep which have the electric feature, the electric outline flashes all different colors.
How to Get an Electric Sheep
Though, I wish that I could tell you the formula for making an electric sheep from scratch, I don't know anyone who has done this. The best and fastest way to get an electric sheep is to ask one of you neighbors to send you an Electric lamb. Since the Electric feature is available in one color sheep and Split color sheep, you may get two types of lamb that could be electric. The first type is a solid color with a slight outline. The electric outline is actually very difficult to see, so you may mistake this lamb for a regular lamb. Here is an example of an electric lamb with the black base color:
Notice that you can barely see the green lines in the lamb. Furthermore, the picture of the lamb is taken at the time that the lamb is sent. Sometimes the electric lines are not bright and sometimes they are. This can be tricky since you may not know if it is electric until it has been sitting on your farm for several minutes.
This is an example of a split color lamb. This sheep will have the top half one color and the bottom half (for this particular lamb) will most likely be red. You cannot see an electric outline, but when you place it on your farm, it may light up. So when you feed your lamb, you may find that it has an electirc outline. My experience has been that split color sheep usaully have white electric outlines.
How to Breed an Electric Sheep
Once a friend sends you an Electric lamb, you will be ready to breed. However, there are some breeding basics that you should be aware of that will save you a lot of time, love potion, and possibly your sanity. :) I have provided a breakdown of these rules below:
Sheep Gender: Rams generally pass on design and the secondary color. Ewes generally give the base color and the special features. Note: Since the Electric outline in sheep is considered a feature, it is passed on through the Ewe.
Sheep Color: There are a variety of different colors, but you should know that the placement of the color on the sheep determines what colors the resulting sheep will have. The base color, is the color is the color around the Stars or Dots sheep and the inside color for a Camo design. The secondary color is the star or dot color and also the outside color on the Camo design. Sometimes you will find third colors; especially in Camo sheep.
In this sheep, Maroon is the base color and Black is the secondary color.
Sheep Designs: Some of the sheep designs are Star, Camo, Collar, Dot, Belted, and one color sheep. Remember the design is decided by the Ram. So if you want the Star design, ask your friend to send a Ram of that design.
Special Features: The special features out there right now are Masked, Flashing, Split Color, Electric, and Popping. All of these special features breed in the same way as the sheep's base color. So, these traits are passed primarily through the Ewe.
Sequence Selection: Which sheep you select first when breeding makes a difference in what you will get. Generally, if you want the Design of the Ram, the base color and special features of the Ewe to come up, then select the Ewe first. Selecting an Ewe first favors the Ewe's base color and gender and the Ram's design. If you pick the Ram first, you are more likely to get Ram's colors and gender and there's a chance of capturing the Ewe's design.
Electric Specific Breeding Tips:
When applying these rules to breeding Electric sheep, you should start out by requesting an Electric girl lamb so that you will get an Ewe. If you get an Ewe, breeding should be easy. Choose the Ram with the design you want to be on the sheep and then breed it with the Electric Ewe. Be sure to select the Ewe first in order to favor the Ewe's Electric feature and the Ram's design. You should get exactly what you want. If you do not, cut out some of the elements. Use a Ram without special features and with a lighter color.
If you are lucky enough to get an Electric Sheep from a friend but you get a Ram instead of an Ewe, breeding may be more difficult but not impossible. Select an Ewe with no special features and with a light color. When breeding, select the Ram first and then the Ewe. This will favor the Ram's color and features (electric) and the possibly the Ewe's design. You may have to try this several times and with different Ewes before you get an Electric Ewe. You may also have the issue of getting boy lambs instead of girls. This may happen because choosing the Ram first also gives preference to the Ram's gender. However, you will eventually get the feature to go into a girl lamb. At this time, use the Ewe to breed and you will find it much easier. Furthermore, when you want to share the Electric feature, breed an Electric Ewe and Ram together to have better chances of getting the feature.
I hope that this information will help you fill your farm with all different types of Electric sheep. It is a fun feature to play with, so try lots of different combinations and have fun with it. :)
