A hat that, when left alone with another hat, will mate and produce hybrid offspring
Negative gold pieces
A map that is the territory
Armour that becomes more effective the uglier the wearer
A living pocket-watch that never needs winding, but if you don’t feed it, it dies; it’s an obligate carnivore
Goggles that put censor bars over monsters of the Aberration type
An instructional tome in the secret language of ducks
A dagger that glows in the presence of one particular goblin
Angry shoes
A magnifying glass that interrogates unexamined assumptions
A quill and inkwell set that lets you write with perfect fluency, but only in languages you don’t understand
Clothing whose colour and pattern are literally impossible to describe
A magic potion that renders the imbiber both incredibly persuasive and extremely gullible
An actual key to your heart
Kind of in the same spirit, there’s a crappy magical item generator right here: https://rexiconjesse.github.io Ive been. Extremely tempted to inflict some of these things on my PCs.
my all time favourite breeds are crested, spangled, and laced breeds
my #1 are cream brabanters, i just love everything about how they look
another cool breed that looks very similar are pavlovskayas, as far as I know they are unrelated. I just love them and brabanters for their half crescent spangles, they look like hearts its so cute
the most widely available funky breed i like are probably polishes. that being said, i’m not a fan of their reduced vision and sometimes their crest can need to be trimmed (they can also have dome shaped skulls with holes in them but most live fine)
another breed i love are salmon faverolles, they just look like toasted marshmallows and very huggable. they’re also one of the more dimorphic breeds, the roosters are black with light hackles and saddles
I was thinking of getting a faverolles but the only downside is their eggs are on the smaller side and my family wanted good layers.
so far all the breeds i listed are ones i’ve actually had no experience with so obviously i have to talk about ones i’ve owned. wyandottes are easily the most eye catching + reliable dual purpose you can get imo, plus the rose comb has less frostbite risk although lady columbian wyandotte has the biggest wattles of all my chickens. my SL wyandotte daisy is my baby and i’d die for her.
finally, there’s easter eggers (generic brand ameraucanas). If you’re in the hobby farm scene you’ll know both EEs and ameraucanas are an all-time favourite right now. their green or blue eggs are a novelty and you’ll always get wows from people who don’t know chickens can do that, so it’s really easy to sell or give away extra eggs. they come in a huge range of colours and the feet are green or blue, no two EEs look the same. they have a good temperament, and their tiny pea comb + absence of wattle is basically the most anti-frostbite you can get, which is great if you live in a cold climate. basically if you want a unique and cold resistant backyard breed my top recommendations are EEs or ameraucanas.
I have so many breeds i can talk about but its late and this post is getting really long
The iconic McElroy Double “Unless.” I can hear them perfectly.
I noticed a couple people in the tags saying the Double Unless is a Hamilton reference, which means there are people out there who don’t realize that Hamilton was actually referencing the McElroys, not the other way around. Lin said so himself.
So anyway, I just wanted to share the good, good news.
