It's my understanding that in Closed Beta, Meeroos took 10 days to mature to adulthood and become fertile.

In Open Beta, they take 7 days to mature to Adulthood but still 10 days to become fertile.

If this is the case, then "Adulthood"'s only affect on the meeroo is the end of the growth period.

Personally, I don't see this as an improvement to the 10 day system. Baby meeroos are cute and having them take a little longer to grow is not a bad thing.

Baby meeroos = happy time
Meeroos making baby meeroos = happy time
Meeroos too big to be babies and too young to make babies is kind of upsetting. These 3 days in between have no real benefit or enjoyment. Why not use the time to let them finish growing so we can see them tiny just a bit longer?

Please either make the fertility rate coincide with the growth rate or make the growth rate coincide with the fertility rate. Otherwise, I don't see the point of days 7-9.

Just my two apple cores!
