Chickens

"Around this time of the bladder cycle you may have noticed chickens on your front porch! And your walls... and your ceiling... even the cracks in your exoskeleton!"https://youtu.be/eMKF09Y_raU?t=36 - SophodraChickens are very different in this universe and are more like starfishes in our current day.https://youtu.be/eMKF09Y_raU?t=72 It has also been explained that chickens are not parasitoids.https://youtu.be/eMKF09Y_raU?t=54
===States of the Chicken===
==== Motile Stage ====
Chickens after having been in the roosting stage for a while will get up and start to wander around and scavenge for food.https://youtu.be/eMKF09Y_raU?t=64 They also drop their head to reproduce in the motile stage.
====Sessile Stage (Roosting)====
They spend most of their life cycle in a sessile stage called "roosting."https://youtu.be/eMKF09Y_raU?t=90 During this stage they latch onto an object and they raise their feathers and filter feed on protocules.https://youtu.be/eMKF09Y_raU?t=94 What this can lead to is large areas of chickens in this universe roosting. This can lead to a hard time for other creatures like humans to move through fields of roosting chickens.https://youtu.be/eMKF09Y_raU?t=99
=== Ways to handle a Chicken Infestation ===
Sophodra explains a method to handle a chicken infestation by placing down a snail egg and letting the chickens crawl inside, but that seems to have unfortunate consequences.https://youtu.be/eMKF09Y_raU?t=149 Currently there is not a clear method to get rid of this animal. Sophodra does exclaim it's easier to take care of them in the "roosting" or sessile stage.https://youtu.be/eMKF09Y_raU?t=122 (Warning, this one has a bit of a jumpscare to it.)
