I had some unexpected visitors today when I went out to do goat chores!

That's a nice pair of Spaldings. A BS male and a hen. Some idiot just lost $600+ because they thought peafowl were like chickens and could instantly be free ranged.

If they stick around and you'd like to capture them (and they should be captured even if you don't intend to keep them, they do not know where they are and will not be adept at finding food and water and are susceptible to predators), they can be offered game bird feed or dry cat food or whole corn or peanuts, and led into an enclosed space. Shut the door behind them and capture them in the dark (it will be easier to grab them when they can't see).

If you'd like to keep them I can give housing advice, otherwise either contact your local humane society/ASPCA or drop me a PM and let me know where you are and I'll see what I can do about helping you find a place for them with new owners.

hi! i really like the artwork of the trine you have as an example in your commissions post, i couldn't find it on your blog though -- may i have a link to the original?

i drew it specifically to put it in as an example! here it is without the text ^-^

you have the toxic yaoi art style

that’s actually crazy

[linkcharacter]

For your consideration:

Curly wrapped up in a blanket. Like a curly burrito. Maybe even a burrito blanket. He is so eepy. He’s warm and safe from the horrors.

Oi, small idea;

Musclegut Nariander, and Lamb's reaction to his boyfriend/husband becoming nice and soft, perfect for cuddles

Narinder certainly did gain more muscle and weight on his journey, but he's not "swole." He's built more for climbing, swimming and jumping, so he's got more of a "sleeper" body (I think they're called? When you don't really see the muscle until they flex) Also, Nour uses they/them

I like the idea of an erratic time loop, it’s definitely looping when you die, but how far it loops seems almost random, one time you wake up and you’re looking down the barrel of what killed you last time, the next it’s five years earlier and there’s seemingly no rhyme or reason to when you loop to.

ooh i like this one.

hi! is the five hr energy post a joke? I genuinely cannot tell 😭

nope! the video comes from dairydoc on tiktok, she's a dairy vet! and like she said, caffeine is a really good stimulant and can really help in situations like this where the calf just doesnt have the energy to get up!

dr sheila mcguirk of the university of wisconsin actually specifically recommends 5 hr energy drink for lethargic calves!

so yeah, it can look really funny to give a new born calf a 5 hour energy, but it does work! stranger things have happened :)

Is lava to ignians just like water is to humans?

It's more like mud. Won't kill you, will mess up your clothes; kids like playing with it. Can be sculpted into fun shapes if you're skilled!

It's also only Volcano Ignans who can be this cavalier about it. Even Desert Ignans find lava very uncomfortable and mostly stay outside of volcanos, although it's still orders of magnitude less dangerous for them than an uninfluenced human.

Silly question but how would you rate different gamebird chicks on a scale of "no brain cells, head empty" to "wait! I think I just saw a thought happen?!"?

You've mentioned before that turkey poults have the survival instinct of a chicken nugget, and I've raised coturnix chicks before which are like...death seeking missiles. Are other gamebird chicks as dumb? Are any recognisably better suited to not immediately kamikaze-ing into the nearest water fountain/single square millimetre of loose tape/one cold spot they can find in the brooder?

Peafowl chicks rate the highest. I know I talk a lot of shit about them, but outside of not eating unless shown the food (which IS a valid survival behavior, for avoiding toxic things in their native environment), they're not prone to doing anything actively stupid. They have great eye sight, they tend to look before they leap (and can fly if they do get into trouble). They have a sense of time ("bedtime" is a concept they have! Every hand raised baby I've ever had has had a strict idea of when they think it's time to go to bed and will scream at me until I agree). They will return themselves to the heat when it's time, I've never had one fail to do this or start screaming because they're on the cold side of the brooder and don't know how to move 1 foot to the left to get warm. I've never had one drown in the water dish even though they get a bowl or are raised outside with a pond/big water bowl. They can coexist with just about any other bird, which is great because their only flaw is they need to be shown food for the first few weeks, and adding something like a chicken will cause the chicken to show them where to eat. And because peafowl are large, all the other babies will follow them around for everything else. For creatures who grew up in an environment where very little (predator wise) can kill them, they're surprisingly adapted to not dying in really stupid ways in captivity. They ARE fragile in other ways (pick up parasites easily), but that's not a matter of stupidity.

Coturnix are so far the worst, and I am including Turkeys in this metric. Turkeys are at least hardy in a brooder setup, even if they are very stupid outside with mom. Coturnix on the other hand have to have a tiny lip to their water dish so they don't get into it and drown or chill (and they still do their level best to get into it, even with the tiny lip where they can barely reach the water, I sometimes check on them and find one Mystery Sopping Wet.... how..... and why...... and also HOW). I have watched one grab a drink of water, throw its head back to swallow, choke, and die immediately. There is NOTHING you can do for them if they fail at drinking water, by the way. If you pick them up too soon after they drink, or any other time, there's a non-zero chance that they immediately panic-vomit any water in their system, choke on it, and suffocate/die instantly so you have to be careful about handling them while they're doing their very best to make that as difficult as possible (and this lovely trait persists into adulthood). They cannot have access to anything they can get caught in/under, I have to put barriers in their cage and not give them a cold spot in the brooder until they're a few days old because they will CHARGE to it and sit there until they die screaming about how cold they are while 1 foot away from the heat. They still throw themselves at this barrier because they can see through a 1mm gap to either side that cold death awaits them with open arms and they desire it so badly. It's why they always look like this:

If you have them standing on your hand they WILL just walk off - nay, run full tilt off - without regard for if there is anything below them to fall ONTO, and they are fully capable of beaning themselves so hard upon impact that they die. I had to find a stuffie that was very light and a stuffie that was very heavy, because a medium weight is just light enough for them to shove themselves into the shavings beneath it and suffocate because they can't get out again, and they will also actively seek to do this. They have to have a solid-sided brooder because if they can stick their head through a gap a) they can probably get out of it if it's just a little bigger than their head and b) they will get stuck in it and break their necks if it's just a little too small.

The vast majority, 99% of them, are extremely easy to raise, and doing a minimal amount of guardianship in their brooder will protect them from themselves, but they do have a deep and abiding desire to be dead, I think, and there will be some you cannot save from themselves. No other game birds/fowl I've raised are like this- not peafowl, not turkeys, not pheasants, not chickens, not bobwhite quail, not even guinea keets... the closest would be button quail and even they are not death-seeking missiles until they're a bit older.

The way you draw faces on transformers pleases me so much… how do you do it??? How do you make it look so good??? I love your art so very much (completely sold me on the music bots)

-sincerely, a struggling artist who cannot draw transformers <3

But if you do have any tips for how you draw + stylize their faces so well it would be greatly appreciated :>

Have a lovely day/night!!!

gotta tell u the truth i think the way i draw their faces is practically the same way i draw normal human faces but with like the armour bits on top,??

tried copypasting a face from person into bot and i figured that the only little bits i'd adjust would be to make edges like the chin and nose bridge slightly more angular, maybe slight adjustment to make the expression fit better inside the face armour shape, but like overall i feel its not a huge difference because .i like to draw soft faces fdjfd

Question: Would you ever take outfit commissions? Like a fullbody commission but it’s an outfit for a character

If you're referring to drawings like these, yeah sure! That's a really good idea actually since I've just opened a ToyHouse (with the help of my sister because God knows I can't figure out all these socials myself haha) I'll see about designing more outfits and characters on it
