Lizardsquid, maker of noises @lizardsquid@computerfairi.es

We found a strange little chick, all yellow fuzz and weak 'peep-peep' noises. This was before the internet, so we had to make a LOT of uneducated guesses.

It accepted water from an eye-dropper but practically curled in on itself at the mushed up bird-feed.

Finely pasted meat though, it accepted with GUSTO. We were excited at the prospect of raising a bird of prey.

A few weeks in we realized we had, in fact, saved a feathered serpent.
