FarmVille Sneak Peek: Brown Lamb, Brown Sheep, & Golden Lion Monkey

Welcome to another edition of the FarmVille Sneak Peek, where we give you lucky farmers a chance to get a sneak peek of items that we believe will be coming to FarmVille in the near future. This edition is animal-themed, with three new animals available to take a look at, all of which come in the form of unreleased images.

The three animals are the Brown Lamb, the Brown Sheep, and the Golden Lion Monkey (from left to right in the picture above). As none of these three items scream "Winter Holiday" to us, it's unlikely that they will be released as part of the Winter Holiday theme of items, so that leaves us to wonder whether or not we'll have to wait until after the new year to see these items (when the Winter Holiday celebration has ended), or whether they may be included in an upcoming Mystery Game or the like (if this is the case, our earlier chance to see them will be in tomorrow's updated Mystery Game). These items could even end up as Free Gifts - nothing is certain at this point other than the fact that we want these animals to place on our farm!

If these items are released a general purchase items in the store, it makes sense that they would be released for Farm Cash, as Zynga rarely releases a limited edition animal for coins. If they are Free Gifts, however, it would give the FarmVille free gifts page a much needed makeover from the current items that have been available for weeks, or even months.

What ever the case may be, remember that there is no guarantee that these animals will finally be released in the game, so keep that in mind. All we can do is speculate, but you're welcome to join in on the fun!

armVille Add Comment FarmVille Animal Sanctuary & Lighthouse Cove Animals: Canada Lynx, Morgan Stallion and more

As was the case with trees this evening, tonight's FarmVille update has seen the launch of not only new Animal Sanctuary items, but also animals in the Lighthouse Cove limited edition theme. These Lighthouse Cove items can be purchased for other farms, not just your Lighthouse Cove farm, if you wish to carry the theme throughout your properties. This is also a great way for those who choose not to pay to get into Lighthouse Cove early to add to their animal collections while they wait.

Lighthouse Cove

Canada Lynx - 12 Farm Cash
Standardbred Horse - 26 Farm Cash
Bufflehead Duck - 18 Farm Cash
Morgan Stallion - 35 Farm Cash

With these animals, we see two horses for collectors that cost the expected high numbers, and reward appropriate XP in exchange: 2,600 for the Standardbred and 3,500 for the Morgan Stallion. The Canada Lynx and Standardbred Horse will only be in the game's store for the next 11 days, while the other two animals will be around for a full two weeks, to give you an idea of when you really need to shop.

Animal Sanctuary

Clouded Leopard - 15 Farm Cash

Unfortunately, that's the only animal released in the theme this evening, but at least it isn't so expensive that it's guaranteed to break the bank. For purchasing this little fella, you'll receive 1,500 experience points, and will be able to harvest him every two days. He'll be available in the game's store for the next two weeks.

Regardless of which animal you choose, remember that (again), these Lighthouse Cove animals can be placed in other farms, so if you'd like to place them inside your Horse Stables and the like (where applicable), go right ahead and do that. Just make sure to not let these guys expire from the store before you have a chance to shop.

Which of these animals is your favorite? What do you think of the Lighthouse Cove theme of items so far? Sound off in the comments.
