The second the traveller stepped into my coop, his tail seems to have turned into a fluffy pompom! Must be the humidity... Traveller looks around, appreciating the tropical environment for exactly 10 seconds before deciding it's better he avoids the sun, for no particular reason at all... The traveller seems to have gained mysterious red horns and a cape? Oops.

The traveller's outfit goes from:

  • Visor (maroon)
  • Sneakers (maroon)
  • Blush (pink)
  • Contact Lenses (yellow)

To:

  • Blush (pink)
  • Contact Lenses (yellow)
  • Cape (maroon)
  • Horns (maroon)

He also seems to have gotten along quite well with Eggy... Is that their egg sitting in the nest?! It has now hatched into a little chick...

NOTICE

Extremely sorry for the delay with the game, there have been some irl complications i’m still dealing with that have kept me from working on this game.

I’ll try to get back to it as soon as possible but it might take a bit.

Thank you for the understanding and for the love for this game

!!THE GAME IS BACK ON!!

The arrival...

It had been a long winter, Traveller didn't think he would stop at home for long.

"It's just for Christmas," he thought, as he stepped through the coop's wooden door "I will just get back to travel riiiight after!" But as he stepped on the warm, deep bedding he couldn't help but be overwhelmed with nostalgia: the painted wooden walls, the laying nests where to-be parents were taking turns on brooding, the warm hay under his feets, the dusty smell of chickens moving all around.

A lot had changed since he had last visited, the coop had gotten bigger, and busier. There were now 5 different sectors to the building, chickens who devided themselves by categories he couldn't fathom to understand; instead he found himself quite lost, wandering the sections with curiosity and dread, until a voice stopped him on his tracks.

"son?" a sable and lemon Rooster stood behind him, his eyes, open in surprise, were underlined by heavy eye bags, his tie was loosely tied around his ruffled feathers and he adjusted his glasses to take a better look at Traveller. It was VOID, Traveller's father. He just couldn't hold himself and just threw himself on to his father, hugging him tightly...

What happened?

Traveller spent well over a month back at his old coop, catching up with his family and mingling with the new chickens.

Some highlilghts:

  • Traveller couln't help himself and took part in the revolt against Mum, successfully stealing from her 7 times
  • he started using the devil's lettuce and concieved a child with Mary Jane herself (as well as an unnamed chicken, one of his one night stands)
  • he actually stayed to watch his children grow
  • he actually.... wait. wait wait wait. i was sure i had more seeds then that. and? did i always have 5 tickets??? no, i had 6... did he!? AND MY EGGS TOO!?!? WHAT!!! THAT NASTY-

OK, WHOEVER GETS HIM WATCH OUT BECAUSE HE STOLE ALL THE STUFF HE HAS WITH HIM, I SWEAR!!

His children..

After a long break, the Traveler had finally gone off again… and found residence in my coop! They settled in at the pasture, looking about at the various coops and curious beaks abound. It wasn’t long until they heard a peculiar sound…
Coo?
Well, that was nothing like a normal chicken sound! Turning their head, the Traveler was surprised to find none other than the nefarious Pigeon. However, the Pigeon didn’t seem to hold malice towards the Traveler… was that, perhaps… interest? Respect? Curiosity? It wasn’t long at all before the Pigeon was getting chummy with the Traveler, thieving from the coops and overall causing a ruckus wherever the pair went. Of course, no chicken was surprised when not even a day had passed and the pair had managed to swindle an egg into a nest box. (//i am so glad i kept a nest open for this very moment LOL) Some coop members, particularly Aubergine and Banded Pigeon, pity the egg; knowing both Traveler’s and the Pigeon’s habits. Other coop members are simply glad to look forward to some new faces. Who knows what else the Traveler will do in their stay… a little birdie told me that they might run off with the Pigeon to steal from Mum once again…

As it goes, the Traveler had to be on their way again, but not before a couple things happened…

  1. Their curious nest with the Pigeon hatched, although they were already fleeing the coop when baby Overalls hatched…
  1. They seem to have received a pair of overcast sneakers from the Pigeon; perhaps as a good luck charm, or maybe just to help the poor Traveler’s talons as they explored the world…

In spite of the fact that nearly no other chicken dared to be within the presence of the infamous Traveler, the cool-headed Lucie and Drumstick ended up taking the role the Traveler and the Pigeon would have with Overalls. Needless to say, the Traveler would likely be unwelcome by the pair if they so happened to stop by again…

It appears as if this mischievous, devious and downright sneaky fellow has made his way into my roosts... Even making one of the many children of Teatime & Teacup swoon... their family tree forever altered... God help us all.

And thus, the Travelling Chicken’s time within my Coop comes to an end. Leaving behind yet another child,

They shall never get to know their parent - a deadbeat, telling Peppermint they would be gone just as the egg were to hatch. Peppermint, heartbroken, provided The Travelling Chicken with a bowtie matching herself, as a memento, and a welcome invite back into her life, someday…
