“half of its body go into a state of sleep, and when one side is rested, the flamingo will swap legs and then let the other half sleep or standing on one leg may allow the birds to conserve more body heat, given that they spend a significant amount of time wading in cold water” (Source: Wikipedia)

FarmVille Miniature Horse & Miniature Foal
Wed ,04/08/2010
The limited edition New England themed FarmVille Minature Horse is finally here! We got a sneak peak of this adorable Mini Pony on a FarmVille loading screen teaser and have been waiting on it since.
A new FarmGoddess favorite, the FarmVille Minature Horse costs 26 FV$ and can be purchased in the FarmVille Market during the next 10 days only! Be sure to snag yourself a Mini Horse while you can because after it expires from the market it will be a retired item that may not ever debut again.
Good news for Horse Breeder enthusiasts! The Mini Horse is breedable and can be placed in the Horse Stable, meaning it can yield a Miniature Horse Foal. According to Zynga, if you are able to cross two Minis you will get a Mini and if you cross a Mini and a Normal, you will get a Normal. However, there are reports by many FarmVille Freaks that Mini Horses + Normal Stallions are yielding Mini Horse Foals.
Note, the Miniature Stallion is only available through the current Mystery Game prizes (released on August 2, 2010). Also, the Mini Cream Horse and Foal are only obtainable through stables and nursery barns.
Good luck with your breeding!

New FarmVille Puppy: Shiba Inu
Wed ,30/06/2010
Tonight June 30th the new Shiba Inu Puppy was added to the FarmVille Market. We had previously let you know this puppy may be coming as we posted the unreleased images of it just a few days ago.
This new puppy is available for 65$FV and comes in Brown, Black and White. And will help you ‘fetch things’ when fully.
“inu is the Japanese word for dog…the word shiba means “brushwood” in Japanese, and refers to a type of tree or shrub whose leaves turn red in the fall.This “inu is the Japanese word for dog…the word shiba means “brushwood” in Japanese, and refers to a type of tree or shrub whose leaves turn red in the fall.This leads some to believe that the Shiba was named with this in mind, either because the dogs were used to hunt in wild shrubs, or because the most common color of the Shiba Inu is a red color similar to that of the shrubs. However, in an old Nagano dialect, the word shiba also had the meaning of “small”, thus this might be a reference to the dog’s small size.Therefore, the Shiba Inu is sometimes translated as “Little Brushwood Dog.” (Source: Wikipedia)
