Whales and item count

I'm right at the build limit and I bought a discounted whale at the store only to find out that I had to put two items into storage (instead of just one) in order to be able to place it. So it seems that whales count as two items towards the build limit. Is that expected or is this some sort of bug?
  • Talking of whales I just finished cleaning my fish tank... :o

  • This is a whale known quirk of the way EA counts items.

    Almost worth it for the 7% though...

    Yeah you don't want to store these. :)

    Yeah I never liked that. I stored the square as soon as I saw that.
  • Yeah @lucienleon519 I shared this and other items counts info more than a year ago and @Muhsterino helps to put information together as a one stop shop in her tips page.
