The Dino Lab was a crafting building and Animal Pen in FarmVille. It was introduced on June 15th, 2012. By collecting certain DNA strands, a farmer may produce various dinosaurs. Unlike previous crafting buildings, this can also be used to store up to 20 dinosaurs and can be harvested every day for DNA Strands.
Building Stages[]
It requires 10 Cements, 10 Fill Dirts, and 10 Metal Posts to be fully constructed and usable. It can be purchased in the Market for 
5 coins, or it can be purchased fully built for 
30 cash.

DNA Strands[]
You can get DNA strands when you harvest your Dino Lab. Combining different DNA strands can gave different dinosaurs (See Recipes below). After you collect enough DNA to make a particular dinosaur, the "Make It" button will appear next to that dinosaur's recipe. You can buy missing DNA for cash. When you press the "Make It" button, the dinosaur is immediately sent to your gift box.

Dinosaur Recipes[]
The Dinosaurs do not have a creation order, because a random DNA strand is produced when harvesting the lab, no matter which dinosaurs you have in the lab
