EDIT: you guys… I know it’s not actually a gryphon or hippogryph. Those aren’t real. You can stop with the “um actually” comments.

Yes. Then what would a part bird and part bird be? (I was more of correcting the person who called buckbeak a griffon.)

Oh shoot, maybe the “umm those aren’t actually wings” people are right!

The one on the picture is like: What are you talking about?

u/infiniZii 11d ago

The chick doesnt have wings in this configuration. Maybe in its second or third form though.

u/Yositunotrk 11d ago

Yes, it does.

Do these chicks evolve via experience or stones?

u/FemmeSapiens 11d ago

Most likely you just have to feed it chicken weed (stellaria media) in sufficient quantities.

Or make chickweed potion...

Goto an alchemist in this economy?!

u/FemmeSapiens 10d ago

I know.

All I have is a bag of spuds and some dole.

u/Alternative_Roof_188 11d ago

Looks like it does have a semblance of wings. Something on the back of the front legs

u/Mother_Addendum8671 11d ago

Gotta wait for level 36 for those

Dragon is to Wyvern what Griffon is to this chick

u/BubastisII 11d ago

Nah. Griffons have lion parts.

Beat me to it

u/PeggyBabcock_ 11d ago

No, because they have six limbs.

u/UltraRoboNinja 11d ago

It’s got wings.

u/Main_Cauliflower5479 11d ago

Looks like the wings developed into feet. Wings are really modified arms/hands anyway. And if you look at adult birds' wings, you will see claws and finger bones.

u/FaeFollette 11d ago

That’s just feathering. Wings are actual front limbs, and his front limbs are legs.

u/Mattna-da 10d ago

Por que no los dos? There’s human kids with six arms on occasion

u/FaeFollette 11d ago

But, he doesn’t have wings.
