In this challenge, your Nichelings are a flock of parrots!
SETTINGS:
Baby (Nestling): 2 days
Child (Fledgeling): 3 days
Teen (Young bird): 5 days
Adult: 50 days
Pregnancy: 3 days
Turn rogue males off. (optional)
Make all your Nichelings bird beak with double wings, a mask, stripes, or spots peacock tail/stinky tail/fishing tail/medium tail and brown, black, yellow, or orange eyes. The rest? Random!
RULES:
Start on a jungle island. You can have a grassland island if you're new or not good at surviving on hard islands.
Only eat fruits and nuts. This means you can crack nuts to eat, collect berries, stinky fruit, or carnivore plant fruit, or pick nuts straight from trees. Yes, you can have coconuts. Meat from killing a bluebird is OK.
More inticrate patterns are more favourable in mates.
All Nichelings mate for life. If their mate dies, they never breed again. They also stay near their mate.
If a female is pregnant, she MUST be in a nest! If she does not stick to this, make her baby take damage when it's born (a male can breed with her but then she must make a nest on the spot)
Make nests on stumps and trees.
Cycle through leadership. Pick a parrot to be leader for 3-5 days, an once that time is over, pick a new leader. You can use random numbers if you can't decide. The leader must be an adult.
They are too old and not allowed to breed at five days before death from old age, but still stay with their mate.
If a baby bird is sickly (double immunities, deformed paws, etc) kill them.
Fly away from predators. If not possible, defend yourself.
Bird themed names (Squak, Feather, Talon, Beaky, ect)
If a birb has horns, call it a crest.
Goal: Just enjoy controlling parrots. I did bird research for this. There is no goal, though you can set yourself any win condition you want. If you're a story player, see what tales you can make with your little birbs.
Enjoy!
