Meet the Petz Breed: The Chick!

Original Post Date: 2025-04-25

♧ — Content Warning: This post contains discussion of simulated animal gore. No images are shown! — ♧

A series of eleven chicks in Petz. The first eight are yellow with green eyes, tan with darker markings and cherry-brown eyes, tan with brown markings and white eyes, black with grey eyes, cream with brown eyes, orange with teal eyes, white with blue eyes, and green with pink eyes. The last three chicks are alternative forms of the orange, white, and green chicks, with dark teal, red, and purple eyes, respectively.

Default AC Name: Chickie

Hexed From: Great Dane

Reasoning: A horribly dark advertisement. See below.

Variations: Eleven! (Yellow, tan, brown, black, cream, orange, white, and green, with the latter three having one alternative eye colour each)

Ivy's Fave: Black with steel-110 eyes

Other Notes:

Behold, the Easter breed I discussed! And yes, the dark reason for me wanting to make this file is going to be detailed below in red text, just in case someone wants to skip it!

Basically, I was on TV Tropes (yeah yeah I know), looking at their page on horrible ads, as one does. One of the ads they bring up is for some chocolate brand, where a young girl is shown grinding up a baby chicken. The gore was simulated, and not well, (even ignoring that it's photoshopped, it looks like beef coming out of the grinder, and there's way too much for it to come from a chick), but it still struck a chord with me as I have always loved chicks and found them adorable. I'm not overly disturbed by gore, but seeing that cute little chick in there made me want to rescue it.

And then, I thought, "Why not make a cute Petz chick breedfile?"

So here we are!

This is the Chick, and they come in a variety of patterns and colours based off of real baby chickens! (Except the green, obviously. Unless you put one in some harmless green dye.) They also hatch from eggs around age 70 in-game, with the eggs having four possible colours that can hint at the colour of chick, if you're into the mystery aspect! Brown eggs always contain brown chicks, but white eggs can contain yellow, cream, or white chicks, cream eggs can contain tan or orange chicks, and off-white eggs can contain black or green chicks! I may also edit the file so that any kind of chick can come from any kind of egg...

Four circular eggs in Petz. From left to right, they are white, brown, offwhite, and cream.

As with all the others, you can find this breed on my Downloads!
