Ownership and Customs;
You may own up to 10 Wind Reapers. Gifting a Reaper is allowed, but you must have been the owner for at least 1 month (30 days) before it is gifted (unless you are entering a contest for someone else OR are gifting a nursery batch directly aka no prior ownership). To gift a Reaper or put ip up for readoption, you MUST PM me (SilverSamurai) and the original artist of the Reaper. Both ends of the trade (yourself and the new owner) must PM SilverSamurai to confirm the change in ownership. However,
trading Reapers is not allowed. The following rules
must be followed when adopting and owning a Wind Reaper:
1. You may own up to 10 Wind Reapers, 2 of them may be customs (through winning or buying a ticket)
2. Staff may own up to 12 Reapers, 2 of them may be customs made by themselves or purchased.
3. Be respectful of others; this means to credit others when necessary, no foul or harsh language, and no fights.
4. Do not claim a Reaper as your own unless you are the official owner; no stealing other user's adopts.
5. Be respectful of staff; we are trying our best, we really are.
6. If you are adopting, please mark the main thread!

Breeding;
Wind Reapers mate for life, and can only breed 5 times over their lifetime. Some will choose to never mate and breed, while others are more comfortable and social with others. Reapers can only breed with their mate, and will lay 1-2 eggs each time. The eggs are fairly large, about the size of an ostrich egg. Parents will incubate the egg(s) for 2 months until they hatch, and the nestlings will stay for up to a year. They are fully grown around 5 years of age, and will have long left their parents nest by then.
Reapers breed in seasons, or every 7-8 months if they choose to do so. However, for nursery reasons, all these times will be shortened:
A Reaper can only breed once a month.
Egg- 3 days after lay.
Nestling (hatched)- 1 week
Adult- forever
While rare, some Reapers do not grow past their nestling stage. This does not mean they are not mature, they are just unable to breed and will not grow to full size. This is known as a 'Stunted Reaper'. Stunted Reapers are rare and are usually more withdrawn from their flock/family. They only occur through breeding, and have a 10% chance of occurrence.
