Ah! OK, thank you thank you thank you!
That totally lets me leave the ponds alone as I made the mistake of getting too many different ones and now many formerly rare resources are common enough that I don't need them every day. However I would like the rare resources that some of the ponds produce, so I can just ignore them until the rare item pops up.
Any contribution to Lazy Lifestyle is greatly appreciated. Which is why I do not like the parrots, Sam I Am.
