What are Hippogryphs?
Khimaira Hippogryphs are a species breed between normal Gryphs and a Khimaira friesian, they are very wild and very hard to tame. But when you manage to tame one it will be an incredible faithful companion. It can get a size between 17hh and 20hh and lays eggs instead of bearing foals, they can get around 45-75 years old, it's based on what species they are, more bird traits means longer lifespan.
To ride a Hippogryph you need to cut the mane part on the back and place a saddle behind the wings, it is recommened to use a special kind of saddle that will not bother the wings, your gryph, or yourself when flying. People that have a very strong bond with their Gryph can ride it without a saddle, if you fall you can trust your Hippogryph to catch you out of the air. But better not fall to close to the ground...
There are three different species of Hippogryph:
- the Hippogryph
- the Hippogryphy
- and the Gryphy
Custom pair for myself. c:
Finally got around to figuring them out!
I'm not great at brindle types, but I think she looks great.
Nefeir is my Egyptian Vulture, with her mate, Greer, being a Lammergeier.
I love vultures. <3
