Which farm is this you were trying to add animals and what kind?
Animals from the gift box and also animals being purchased.

The "Move" button that moves animals directly from storage to the animal buildings is working fine. It's the animals from the gift box, which have to be moved to the farm and then into the facilities, which are giving problems. They go from the gift box to the farm OK, and I can get them into the facilities by clicking on them individually on the farm, but that requires two clicks per animal. Using the "Add to animal building" icon in the toolbox does the trick with just one click per animal, which is why I prefer it, but it's not been working today.

It's been happening with cows, goats, chickens, horses, and ducks (not sure about other animals, cos I haven't tried with them), and it's happened on every farm I've tried. I also bought a couple of sheep and tried it, and they disappeared too when I had the "Add to animal building" tool enabled (but moved into the wool shed just fine when I clicked on them directly after they reappeared), so it's happening with purchased animals as well as gifts.

I've tried it in Chrome and IE and it's happened in both.

Smile Hiding trees

I have just been trying to hide some trees to make it easier to see others and they do not all disappear. Screen is somewhat unstable and they keeping appearing/disappearing....
Other than that I have had very few problems since the Flash Player update.
Thanks must go to all the devs etc who are working so hard to put right something which is not their fault.

sometimes they come back if you reload the farm... they may be hidden under buildings also, have you tried doing a search using the magnifying glass in the tool box while on that particular farm? hopefully they will appear then..

They come back as soon as I click the Walk icon to stop using the "Add to Animal Building" tool. They're just sitting on the plowed fields, perfectly visible, until I enable that tool and they magically disappear. The moment I stop using the tool, they come back, and I can move them to the animal buildings by clicking on the individual animals.

Plant a crop on that farm, then hide the crop, reload the farm and see if you can move the animals then..

It seems to work when the animals are in the fields and the crops are hidden. It's sometimes working when the animals are on the grass, but usually not when there are crops growing elsewhere on the farm. It also sometimes works when the fields are plowed but don't have crops. I'm not seeing a pattern yet regarding how that correlates with whether the crops are hidden.

But I've never had to hide crops before in order to make the "Move to Animal House" tool work. That's just happened in the last couple of days.

Hi tnbskts,
First thing is for animals in the gift box you do not have to move them to the farm first and then into the buildings. Up at the top where it says "Store Ingredients" click the down arrow next to that and choose "Store Animals." Then click on that and it will move all animals to the right building as long as there is room.
