Breed discussion: The Chickopotamus

[CHlCKEN]

Does this animal pee on your bed like its distant cousin the cat?

It has the digestive system of a chicken, so no pee!

 

[CHlCKEN]

Hmmm... where can I get one of those? Looks like there may be some silkie in it's lineage; maybe that's why it's so broody?

They sell them at @EmmaRainboe ’s super secret hatchery.

Has anyone tried crossing the chiraffe with the kicken? I'd love the long neck of the chiraffe, but with the silkiness of the kicken! Perhaps a nice barred one, as well?

Unfortunately those do not yet exist, but in high demand we have the ROO. The Roo is capable of high speeds, and can jump fairly well. It has a meat flavor unlike any other.

Really! I didn’t even know.

I see that the Roo can be broody without having to stay in a nestbox! Is the pouch also an incubator?

 

[Painted Calls]

What color eggs do they lay or do the give live birth?

Live birth.

Spoiler: You've been warned!

Yes! The Roo incubates it’s own eggs in the pouch.

That can save a lot of money! How can I get a Roo?

Wait. Does it crow a lot?
