Intake Report: INBRED EFFECTS; Stunted Muzzle, Legs, & Tail | Shortened/Missing Nails, Rump & Tail Spikes | Shortened Headfeathers & Jack Feathers | Blind Eyes
"Of course, it wasn't long until the rescue crew was farther and farther back in the crammed together cages, it seemed as though they were almost never ending. The building hadn't even looked that large from the outside! The case we let loose next was not what we expected to see whatsoever, as most racers were not the most flashy. The Skepluvi's colors were unlike any other we had seen that day or otherwise, and absolute rainbow of colors in the most interesting pattern. It was dwarfed however, seemingly stunted in it's growth process. At first we had thought it was just a juvenile, and were stumped when factoring in the strange shape of their spikes and feathers. Even their Jack feathers were smaller than should be. What the vet team assumed was this animal was quite inbred, as backyard breeders do with their 'racing stock' in order to get stronger, faster and larger Skepluvi's with optimal personalities. The selective breeding had gone against them in this case, and obviously the poor Jack was sterile in effect from the most likely twisted genetic code. They had been discarded at the back of the barn, in a cage even smaller and more dirty than the rest. Their frame was sunken in from lack of malnutrition, hips weak and barely able to maneuver through the maze of enclosures and back out to the trucks. They were still young yet, maybe only a month old at most, and the lack of proper diet had definitely taken its toll on them. As the gelding was loaded onto the truck, they stumbled, collapsing onto the floor of the trailer with a pitiful trill. The absolute pain in the animal's eyes was unbearable. They were going to need a lot of help physically, being taught how to walk, leg braces, assistance balancing from lack of eyesight and the malformed Jack feathers. They haven't even learned to be a Skepluvi yet since they were taken away from their parent at a young age before they could even remember their sire's smell or warmth. Will you be up to the task of parenting this Jack the right way and introducing them to fellow of their kind?"
