FarmVille Grey Goose now available to purchase in the market

In an interesting move, Zynga has released the Grey Goose formerly given out as a bonus for purchasing FarmVille Farm Cash to the market as a "regular" premium item.

Earlier this week, if you had taken the opportunity to purchase any Farm Cash package, this Grey Goose would've been give to you for free, but as that was a limited time opportunity (that has since expired), if you want to get your hands on this interesting bird, you'll have to pay Farm Cash, to the total of 16 Farm Cash, to be exact.

It's also interesting to see the Grey Goose listed as a limited edition item - part of the new Winter Holiday theme of items. While the Goose doesn't scream either Winter or Holidays for that matter, we'll give Zynga the benefit of the doubt on this one.

You've got 14 days to add this Grey Goose to your animal collection in the game, so make sure to take advantage of its release while you can.

Did you earn a free Grey Goose by purchasing Farm Cash earlier this week, or will you have to resort to buying one the old fashioned way? Let us know in the comments.
