What are Featherduster Raptors?

Featherduster Raptors, or "Dusties", are a tiny
species of "dinosaur". Well, they're more like reverse-engineered
birds. Dusties are about 18 inches long (That's about 45
centimeters) from the tip of the nose to the tip of the tail.
Dusties are actually fairly social and intelligent creatures and
communicate to each other in little chirps, squeaks, yelps, and
occasional hisses. Dusties will follow their owner around, and
can recognize individual people.

Dusties, however, cannot breed with others of their species,
and must be created in a lab. This means that it is not uncommon
for Dusties to have special mutations, such as horns, glowing parts,
scales, etc. that scientists add when they get bored.

You can stick these in your signature, on threads, or just
have them around!

Rules!
(please read)
• Owners are allowed up to 8 Featherduster Raptors for the time being.
• I reserve the right to confiscate any Featherduster Raptors if the owner breaks too many rules or does something else drastic enough to warrant it.
• Please be respectful. If I screw something up or don't respond to an order right away, bear with me. I am only human and sometimes make mental errors or have something else to do. (If I do give you the wrong amount of fruits/cubes or make some other error, please do PM me to tell me and I'll fix my mistake ASAP!)
•Please try to make purchases for fruit/cubes as clean as possible by sending amounts of pets divisible by 4. This makes it so I won't have to go into decimals. If faced with a decimal, I will simply round it.

More about Dusties...


Basics;;
Dusties are 18-inch long (45 cm) from the tip of the snout to the tip of the tail. They weigh only 1-2lbs.
Their body feathers are extremely fine, dense, and downy, while the feathers on their wings and tails are more large and stiff. Although they have wings, they cannot fly; instead Dusties are able to use their wings to balance, make sharper turns, accelerate quicker, and they can even "run" up nearly vertical surfaces (much like modern chickens). Dusties aren't prone to any health issues, although their bones are hollow and extremely fragile.

Diet;;
Dusties are carnivores, but will also eat insects and foods high in sugar. Some of their favorite foods are mealworms, grapes, mice, and sugar cubes. Dusties get very sick if they eat chocolate, dog/cat food, or nuts. They also lack the ability to digest dairy. Dusties only really need to have one or two meals a day, although they prefer having snacks throughout the day.

Behavior;;
Dusties behave a bit like flightless hummingbirds. Because of their high sugar intake, a lot of the time they're almost literally bouncing off of the walls. They sleep for an average of 4-8 hours a day, depending on the amount of sugar they take in. Dusties are quite social and intelligent, and learn to bond with the people they're around more. However Dusties may be aggressive towards strangers or people they've had bad encounters with, and will chirp and hiss loudly at the person, and even nip at their ankles. Despite this, more than anything else, Dusties absolutely love to cuddle, and will often fall asleep in their owner's lap.

General Appearance;;
Dusties come in a wide variety of colors and patterns, and they can also have special mutations or accessories (such as horns, collars, etc.). One thing that many Dusties share, though, are the stripes/bands on the tail. These are very common in a dusty, and you will see them more often than not. Dusties with thicker tail stripes/bands tend to be more outgoing, but this is not always the case. The most common eye colors are yellow and blue, with green eyes being slightly less common. Red or brown eyes are more rare.

Currency
Here we use a rather strange currency- sugar cubes and fruit!
Cubes:
These cost 4 wishlist pets/5 cubes, or 1 DA point/cube.
Fruit:
These cost 8 wishlist pets/1 fruits, or 8 DA points/fruits.

1 fruits = 10 cubes

You can use these to buy Featherduster Raptors or Embryos!

*Note: any pets from my hoards will count as 4 wishlist pets each!

~refunds are available- just PM me with a link to the trade and if you haven't spent your fruit/cubes yet, I'll be happy to send the pets back.~

Customs
*Customs are currently [open/closed]

You can get a custom baby Dusty by purchasing an embryo.

These are unborn Dusties waiting for genetic modifications. You can buy an embryo and request traits for the Dusty to have using the form below. You will then receive a hatchling shortly.
1 embryo costs 6 fruits or 60 cubes.
