Hello there! Need help?
First of all welcome to you
If you are confused, or want to get a better understanding of Chicken Smoothie, then you are in a good place. I'll try to go over and explain many areas that may be confusing in the beginning.How to Adopt
You've just joined Chicken Smoothie, so of course if you haven't yet, you will want to grab yourself some new pets!
Click the 'Adopt' button on the main menu to reach the Adoptables available for the month.
It is best to adopt the maximum amount of each pet type. As pets grow they often have several outcomes, so adopting all you can, gives you a better chance of obtaining most, if not all of these outcomes.
Extra double outcomes that you get will also be great to go toward trading for pets you need
Pet Groups
Creating several groups for your pets is a great way to keep track and view your different pet types. It is a good idea to create a "Trade Group" and move the pets you are willing to trade here. it makes it easier for potential trading partners to know what you have to offer.
Creating a new trade group is very easy. Just go to your 'My pets' page, and click the 'Create a new group to organize your pets' link at the bottom left.
From here simply enter your new groups name, and click 'Create'. You will now have a new group.
Moving pets
To move pets into a new group, tick the little white box under each pet you wish to move. If you want to move a whole page of pets, scroll down to the bottom right of the page, and click 'Mark all' which is located under the drop down menu.
Once your pet(s) are selected, use the drop down menu to select the group you wish to move them to, and click 'Go'. Your pets will now be moved.
Note: If moving large amounts of pets, be aware that you can only move one page at a time.
How to start a Trade
Starting a trade can be done several ways, and this will soon become like second nature to you.
Secondly you can start a trade by first clicking on a persons User-name, and then proceeding to click the 'Trade with me' link at the bottom left of the members profile page.
Trades can also be started if you are viewing a members pet that is in a group set to allow trades. Just go to the pets page, and click 'Make a trade offer for this pet...' at the bottom left of the page.
Lastly, if you know your trading partners user-name and just want to get to it, click the 'Trades' button located near the top left of the site.
From here click the button -
. You will be prompted to type in the members User-name. Make sure that it is spelled exactly right, or you may unintentionally be starting a trade with someone that has a similar name >.< Oops!
How to use the Trading System
Lets us an image for this one. It is fairly easy to understand once you learn how it works.
Trade Rules
If you want your own set of trade rules that members can see when starting a trade with you:
Go to 'Trades' at the top left of the site. Click the -
button.Here, you can enter your trade rules in the white text area. Be sure to save when you are done!
You can use BBCode to spiff it up if you like. Here is a great guide regarding trade rules -

Your Wishlist
Creating a Wishlist is a very good idea. It is great for not only keeping track of what pets you are missing, but also it lets your trading partners know what you are missing.
To start, simply click the 'Wishlist' link located near the top left of the site. Browse through the different years and sections of pets. When you find one you are missing, just click 'Add to wishlist' located at the right of the pet image chart.
The Forum

There is a large variety of sections, topics and activities. Chances are you will find something to enjoy.If you've found a great topic and want to jump into the discussion, posting a reply to the topic is really easy. Simply use the 'Post Reply' button located at the top left, and bottom left of the topic. If you're in a rush, you can also use the 'Quick Reply' option located at the bottom of the topic.

Be sure to use a clear title that relates to your topic, and make sure to post your topic in the appropriate section of the forums.
It can be useful to use the 'Search' function at the top of the forum board before creating a topic. Someone may have already created a topic regarding the same subject.
The Pound
The Chicken Smoothie Pound contains pets confiscated from cheaters, or donated pets from CS members.
Opening of the Pound is completely, and I must stress this. Com-pletely random. The Pound is run by a few Staff members, so when they have time to manually fill and open it they do.
It may open once every day, or only once a week. Regardless, the pound is meant to be special because you have a chance to get older, and more valued pets.
If you catch the Pound open, you can only adopt one pet per 24 hours. Choose wisely!
Donating your extra pets to the Pound is easy, just send a Trade to the User-name 'Pound' containing the pets you wish to donate.
The Oekaki
Oekaki is a fun browser based application. Essentially you can use it to draw and colour.
If you can't seem to get the Oekaki to work, be sure you have the latest version of Java. It is required for the application to function. http://www.java.com/en/
To start a new drawing, first go to the Oekaki section of the forums. For example, the Beginners Oekaki section. At the top of the board you will see a button at the top left that says 'New Drawing'. Once the application is loaded, just start playing around
The Chicken Smoothie Team
Click here to find a list of the wonderful CS Team. The small descriptions for each member can give you a more in depth view of the person behind the colour. Don't worry they don't bite! Well, most of them heh.
You can also find a colour coded Legend at the bottom of the main forum page. This is a quick way to reach a members profile if need be.
