We need something to stimulate the growth of baby mobs.
It could be "Growth Stimulant"
When used on baby mobs, it will reduce the time for baby mob to grow up by half. It also will work on baby zombies, causing them to grow up, making it the only way to grow up a baby zombie.
The sprite for growth stimulant would be a needle.
What's wrong with the current mobs growth mechanism?
It's perfectly balanced. Give a lil carrot and expect a lil baby.
Wait a bit and you get a fat pig.
What about an extremely rare plant? Make it only obtainable in some odd location that is really hard to find, and it grows slower than everything. 2 hours for a fruit or something. Oh, and once you get one, you can't make more, they don't reproduce. If you want more, you've got to find more. Feeding a fruit of this strange plant to a mob would cause it to grow up instantly.
How about a rare mushroom that grows in Mushroom biomes (plenty) and swamp biomes (really really rare) it will grow within a minute, but the mob will be covered with brown mushrooms, if the mob is killed on its "mushroomed" state it will drop nothing, but if it is sheared the mushrooms will be removed.
I don't think the name "Growth Stimulant" would be the perfect name.
rather simply feeding a baby animal its supposed food (Carrots for Pigs, Seeds for Chickens, Wheat for Cows, Etc.) would speed up its growth a bit.

Not balanced anymore. It only takes 20 minutes to grow a baby excluding Chickens and wasting a rare fruit wont be necessary. If this was farmable in some way, then Ill be okay with it. Just that it should be balanced.

Curse PremiumBone meal is for plants.
Stimulant is for mobs.
(In fact, it's highly controversial and illegal in some cases)
