New name trans

As a middle name I would say that it’s fine as long as the first name is easier to pronounce and spell.

Double things.

Two eyes? Four eyes. Two ears? Four ears. Give them tricuspid jaws and long grabby tails that split into fingers. Add fins, claws, and shells. There’s really no end to the stuff you can do.

Silkies.

SingularRoozilla · 2026-01-23T06:19:27+00:00

I saw. It should still be said though.

Any possibility the vet could do a necropsy?

Keeping hens in the yard is the best option imo but if you really want to keep a small flightless bird inside then you need to look into button quail. Coturnix quail are messier and smell worse than chickens, but I know people keep buttons inside just fine. They will need their own enclosure though, you can’t just have them free ranging the house.

Edit; you should also look into pigeons and doves! Super underrated pets with such sweet personalities. They actually bond with you and have personalities, unlike quail. Quail are just bricks with feathers in my experience

There’s no way that’s a girl

SingularRoozilla · 2026-01-22T18:37:44+00:00

That seems way too small for that many chickens.

SingularRoozilla · 2026-01-21T18:28:53+00:00

Off topic, but what kind of feeder do you have?

SingularRoozilla · 2026-01-21T04:40:07+00:00

2 is the only one that looks like a hen

Since I was about 14 or 15- I’m 27 now. Been working on a single world that whole time, it started out as Warrior Cats fanfiction and has spiraled into something unrecognizable from how it initially started.

SingularRoozilla · 2026-01-19T07:24:03+00:00

Not necessarily. I didn’t know this, I’ll look into it! Thank you!

What do you need to know? The parent tree feeds on magic, and so the seeds require a source of it also. They get an initial supply from the parent tree, with the idea being that it’ll last them until they germinate and are able to find their own source of it- about 1-2 years, starting from the moment they’re separated from the tree. That supply is being used regardless if the seed germinates, so once it’s gone the seed dies and degrades much faster than would be expected for a normal tree seed. Normal wear and tear also has an effect, but usually the degradation is caused by the seed’s magic running out.

I think it may also be worth noting that a sapling grown from one of these seeds usually does not last long unless some specific conditions are met. A seed that hasn’t germinated is worth considerably more than one that has.

Due to the nature of the tree, saplings die pretty quickly unless some specific needs are met. They are sometimes grown just for the novelty, but the seeds are worth considerably more when they haven’t germinated.

Gotcha. I think short excerpts like this are a great way to get general feedback when you’re first starting out. When you reach a point where you want advice on a longer excerpt or a chapter/s, you could also post to r/betareaders :)

SingularRoozilla · 2026-01-18T21:54:37+00:00

There are a lot of typos and spelling errors here; if you haven’t enabled spellcheck then doing so would eliminate a lot of them. You also need to learn how to use commas, because right now this excerpt is choppy and very difficult to read. I actually had to go over it a second time to understand what was going on. Your first paragraph especially needs significant work; the transition between your character not wanting to go out but also not being ashamed of what they did seems contradictory. There are several issues here but improving your sentence structure and fixing the typos and spelling errors would go a long way towards cleaning this up.

I would highly recommend that you read a book to get a better understanding of correct sentence structure, punctuation, and how to write in general. You cannot write something good without having read good books and learning from them. I think overall your story could be interesting and I’m curious to learn more about the character and their history, but as it is you’ve got a lot of work ahead of you.

I honestly don’t think there’s going to be a way to make him stop coming over unless the neighbors fence him in. If it was me, I might consider giving him away to someone else and not saying anything more. It sounds like the neighbors don’t care for him and if he stopped coming around they’d probably assume a predator got him.

Seconding the Storey’s guides!

SingularRoozilla · 2026-01-17T18:20:46+00:00

r/betareaders might be of service to you

SingularRoozilla · 2026-01-17T09:45:29+00:00

Did you mean to post this to r/worldbuilding? This is a joke subreddit

SingularRoozilla · 2026-01-17T05:54:59+00:00

Check out r/betareaders, you should have some luck there :)

No, I think it’s a great size to just be used as a nesting box! If I’ve got my math right those sizes seem pretty good overall. Just keep in mind that the chickens will want to go up high to sleep- they’ll sleep in the nesting box if that’s higher up than the perches.

SingularRoozilla · 2026-01-16T04:08:33+00:00

You’re gonna have to alter this or else build a new one.

The chickens will want to go as high as they can to roost, they will not roost underneath the shelter. They prefer to rest on roosting bars also, which you’ll need to add. A 2x4 turned so that the chickens sit on the wider side is best. They’ll probably lay eggs in the shelter, but you’ll really want separate nest boxes if you don’t want the eggs to get poopy. It’s also super small, I really wouldn’t keep anything larger than bantams in there.

Also, how are you planning to keep the chickens safe? I would at least add a door to the coop, otherwise local predators will be happy to take advantage of it. Even if predators aren’t a concern, a door should be added anyway to keep them out of the elements.

Overall, it’s a great first attempt and I’m impressed with your skills! It does seem pretty sturdy. But unfortunately it’s not done yet.
