I actually enjoy my chickens quite a bit, but I've begun cutting down the number of chickens I own in anticipation of these lil beauties. The thing that makes me excited about these is the range of options I can enjoy with them, they can be pets not just breedable stock.
#5 Thats pretty normal, Ive worn a collar in SL for 2yrs and although its never ever been hidden most people see me as this quiet one and when they finally notice they're a tad shocked and say they would never guess. I have been luckier then quite a few people I've known though, in that so far at least to my face no one has judged it :)
