FarmVille: Calves and Foals finally receive animal mastery

The day has finally arrived, farmers! Calves and Foals, along with other baby animals, are now finally masterable in FarmVille! If you have a large collection of calves, foals, baby turkeys and so on, you'll now be able to earn mastery signs for each kind of animal, just as you can for each kind of adult animal on your farms. That is, a Holstein Calf has a different mastery sign than a Pink Calf, as but one of the many examples.

If you've been saving up plenty of calves or foals in anticipation of this launch, you may think that you'll instantly master these animals with one harvest, but that's not necessarily the case, as the mastery stars for most calves (for instance) can require upwards of 400 harvest per star. Still, as most of these baby animals can be harvested once per day, you'll still be able to master these animals fairly quickly, earning signs in the process that can be placed inside your equally new Animal Mastery Billboard.

With the launch of this baby animal mastery, we've finally seen the fulfillment of a promise made by Zynga some months ago. Better late than never, right?

What do you think of the launch of baby animal mastery in FarmVille? Have you saved up baby animals for when this eventually did arrive? Sound off in the comments.
