I am less than fond of the idea that chocobo raising is gated behind gardening. This means that your ability to use the system is dependent upon your FC not once but twice over: they have to install the stables AND they have to determine who gets the items to raise their chocobos.

Solo players, arguably the people who would most desire this system, could be locked out of it entirely.

I really feel this is content that could have been better implemented at the existing chocobo farm (by individual purchase of a berth) and open to everybody.

There's lots of stuff I don't mind being gated behind FC doors, this just seems counter-intuitive.
