Pillyki redesigns~

i have granted them extra pinch abilities.

top pic is some common island breeds with their Piips (larvae). got a standard Lush, a Coral, a Berry, and a Mossy. bottom pic is life cycle from egg to cocoon.

fun facts:

when frightened a Piip's feathery fluff shifts into patches of black that make it resemble two large unblinking eyes when seen sideways.

they can shoot paralyzing venom from the sacks near their eyes. this venom is sometimes harvested for medical reasons but it must be watered down to be used safely.

wild Pillies spin their cocoons in pits lined with ashes from dead hawks. the glow of the cocoons make it look like a many eyed creature is staring out from the pit.

most Pillies resemble what we would consider roosters and it's very difficult to determine what sex a Pilly is. even if you think you're sure, your "buck" pilly might start laying eggs out of the blue one day. sequential hermaphrodites? mistaken identity? who knows.

Had been struggling to design my version of a cockatrice but I think this result works! Meet Zeta🐣🐓 He goes through different stages: fledgling, juvenile and adult 

Inspired by the infamous Ridley from metroid (ferocity included)

The cockatrice can be found in a wide range of habitats, from temperate forests to grassy planes. These raptors are apex predators though pose little threat to humans. 

Despite the surrounding myth, the cockatrice does not collect toads in order to hatch it’s eggs but as protection. Once the female has completed building her nest mound, which is a collection of dirt and surrounding debris, she will dig a hole and lay her clutch of eggs. Once laid, she will abandon the brood, leaving the male to finish the task. 

From there, the cockatrice male will begin harding toads. (Venomous snakes have also been spotted in nests as well.) Careful not to kill them, the cockatrice will aggravate, shake violently and bite at the toads in oder to get the toad to secret it’s bufotoxins. Once released, the cockatrice will smear the toxins onto the eggs as best as possible and toss the toad into the nest. For the toads who manage to burrow out from the nest mound, they will do so with their lives. Those unable, will be the baby chicks first meal. Once sealed the male will abandon the brood just the female. Chicks are able to fend for themselves upon hatching.

sorry for the bad luck

#did the toad that hatched the cockatrice do it for the love of the child #did it knowingly accept the risk it was taking or was it a mistake #did the cockatrice know it was something other #or was there a day when it looked at the person it loved and they stopped looking back #and the cockatrice never knew why. antways #my art #cockatrice #cw: #bright colors #bright red #high contrast
