I made an electric reel with an electric ability

maybe the larger horn sizes would remove some movement?

sounds convenient, I usually have to go on an odyssey to find what gene I exactly need

I know what convergent evolution is. You were giving me the impression that you thought beaks were a feature unique to birds, my bad. And yes, this is an avian beak, but that doesn't mean something similar couldn't evolve in some other group of animals. The platypus has a bill similar to ducks, hence the name duck-billed platypus, and cephalopods have beaks very similar to parrots. And it's not like niche particularly cares if a gene seems out of place on nichelings, I mean not only have we got the beaks we've also got things like the scorpion tail and antennae
I still think that having 50 nichelings with wings as well as 50 with the cracker jaw is a bit much. As I said before, if you think a beak would look silly on a nicheling without wings then you don't have to give them a beak. Making it more difficult to unlock based on this opinion seems unfair when it's not really going to make much of a difference to your gameplay if you do unlock it
well ok then
-
one thing though, I made something really close to this, sorry, but it's just the dumb situations that can happen are a bit ridiculous, like nichelings with a unevenly shaped wings flying
oh yeah by the way I made all of this a long time ago
-
I know that, it's called convergent evolution, but the specific bill you placed here is more avian, so it would probably be linked to wings in some way, at least in my opinion
-
basically birds often use their bills to do things which other animals do with their limbs, tail, etc. for example, the toucan uses its bill to reach fruit and eggs on thin branches, while a monkey uses it's hands, I'm saying that while it would be useful, it would be odd for the average run of the mill nicheling to unlock a beak like that even though it, birds had wings for a long time in their evolutionary history, and their beaks/feet(in the case of parrots and raptors) serve to work around the limitations wings have versus say, arms

It's no more op than the bird beak we currently have in game, which gives 2 smell, 1 collecting and 2 digging. Wings as well would make it twice as complicated to unlock. If you don't want your nichelings to have it if they don't have wings, then you don't have to make them have it
ok then
-
perhaps this can be an alternate hive, but maybe with waspidows instead of bees?
-
yeah also skunks live mostly in temperate regions so it makes sense

shoebills cannot smell well, so maybe 1 smelling? and once again, imagine funky looking shoebill nichelings with webbed paws and bearyena hindlegs, maybe since these genes are avian, the wings would let you "bridge" into them, because birds use theier bills to do what their now flight, swim or etc. adapted forelimbs and feet can't, like catching fish while also being tall, grabbing fruit off the edges of thin branches or as a way to crack hard seeds and nuts

sounds a bit op but makes sense, maybe cracker jaw AND wings so that we don't have funky looking parrot beaked nichelings with scorpion tails and claws

"Speed", or rather mobility, could be gained by wings, too; heat body won't slow you down and you can use bearyena hind legs for extra strength (plus mega horns plus sabertooth fangs). With this combination, no further strength or speed is necessary, so scorpion tail becomes a must.
Big body forces your pack to stay in a cluster to warm each other up (i. e. the cold resistance isn't absolute) and so it's harder to surround the deer effectively, while runner legs don't add up to damage and their 'reach' is rather limited compared to wings. My opinion though, I haven't really experimented that much, so feel free to prove me wrong.
nice, basically your nichelings become killer birds

🦉 hoot! I see it, love your work

I agree, it is supposed to be larger than a balance bear and is supposed to be able to crush things, but can it crush other animals? that would be useful, there would be a pack of ramfoxes in the mountains trying to eat its baby, then the mammoth would run over them and they would all die, then you get free meat

Hello! welcome to the niche forums, but sorry to say that the scorpion tail already does that, and I am gonna see if there is another stinger suggestion
here it is
-
maybe they have big body?
-
YOu would die in the burning savanna without this, and plus, camels ignore cacti spines, it doesn't hurt them
-
hey, if you have these parts and a big body, you can't move on land, "FUN"
-
one thing though, apparently wolves have a comparatively weak sense of smell when compared to other canids like the average dog, maybe 2 smelling?
-
mwah! great idea, I'm kinda irritated by tiny eyesight limiting lonely flying nichelings, maybe this is recessive to normal eyes?
-
didn't someone already make this?, you don't need to delete this however

however this is still a pretty solid idea
