How to Get & Farm Turkey the Event Currency Build a Zoo Thanksgiving Update Guide
The Thanksgiving event in Build a Zoo introduces a new limited currency called Turkey. This currency is required to unlock event rewards, purchase special items, and progress through seasonal content. Since the event only runs for a limited time, farming Turkey efficiently is important if you want to collect everything available before the timer ends. This guide breaks down how to get Turkey, how to farm it faster, and what you can expect to exchange it for.
How to Get Turkey
Turkey can be earned by completing various Thanksgiving event quests. These quests refresh throughout the event and reward different amounts of currency depending on difficulty. Some examples of tasks you may receive include:
- Gift eggs three times
- Stay online for a set number of minutes
- Buy a Thanksgiving Mutation Egg
- Hatch or breed specific pets
- Feed event items like Acorn or Cranberry
Most quests are simple and repeatable, making consistent progress easy even for casual players.
How to Farm Turkey Faster
To maximize how much Turkey you earn during the event, use these strategies:
- Complete Daily Quests Most players will get their main Turkey income from daily objectives. Complete them as soon as they reset so nothing goes to waste.
- Stay Online to Trigger Time-Based Tasks Some missions require staying online for a certain amount of time. Even if you’re not actively playing, staying logged in will help finish these tasks.
- Use the Event Items Buying and using Thanksgiving Mutation Eggs, Acorns, or Cranberries can unlock quests and speed up progress. These purchases often count toward multiple objectives at once.
- Check Quests Frequently New quests appear as you complete older ones. The sooner you finish a task, the faster a new one appears, which increases overall farm potential.
- Keep Eggs Running on Conveyors Since some quests involve gifting or hatching eggs, keeping production active helps complete them without delay.
What Can You Use Turkey For?
Turkey currency is used in the Thanksgiving event shop to buy:
- Potions
- Decorations
- Event-limited pets
- Titles and boards
- Special cosmetics
Some rewards are cosmetic, while others affect progression, so choose based on your goals. If you want functional benefits, prioritize items like potions and mutation-related rewards. If you’re a collector, go after limited pets and titles first because they won’t return once the event ends.
Turkey is the key to unlocking all Thanksgiving rewards in Build a Zoo, and farming it efficiently ensures you don’t miss time-limited content. The system rewards consistent play, steady progress, and using event features like mutation eggs and special food items. With the right routine and quest management, it’s possible to collect everything before the event ends. Make sure to check quests daily, stay online when possible, and focus on rewards that matter most to your zoo.
