Random Events

Throughout the game, there are several random events that can occur. This is by no means an exhaustive list yet:

Farm Events

Meteorite

There is a random chance that a meteor can fall from the sky onto The Farm at random tiles during night. A unique sound effect will be heard before daily earnings. In the morning, a message will pop up saying "An explosion was heard in the night..."

Meteorites do not despawn and require a Gold Pickaxe or better to mine. They drop 6 Iridium Ore, 6 Stone, and 2 Geodes.

The Crop Fairy

A Crop Fairy visting at night.

During random nights of the growing seasons, there is a chance for the Crop Fairy to appear after daily earnings. She will select an area that contains crops and transform them so they can be harvested. Everything from a 1x1, 4x6, to a 5x5 area has been reported. It has also been reported that she could revive crops after the end of their growing season when they are supposed to be dead.

The Witch

In a random event after you sleep, a witch will fly over your Farm.

Coop
If she flies over one of your Coops, she will leave you with a Void Egg in the morning. This can occur on any coop size and capacity. Incubating the Void Egg will result in a Void Chicken.

Slime Hutch
If she flies over one of your Slime Hutches, she will turn all of the Slimes into Black/Transparent Slimes. Placing a Wicked Statue in the Hutch will prevent this from occuring.

In late game you can unlock a path to her home through the questline Goblin Problem. She won't ever be inside to interact with though.
