Look!

[Without further preamble, Prompto holds his phone camera back to show what he's got cradled in the crook of his other arm: an egg that looks bigger than a chicken itself, so he for sure didn't get it from inside the station.]

It's a chocobo egg! Chocobo, I just know it! And I did the trick with the shell and the light and there's a baby inside, it's alive!

[He sets the phone down standing up and hugs the egg carefully and happily to his chest, grinning fit to split his face.]

I'm gonna be the best. Chocomom. Ever! I gotta introduce them to the girls downstairs, catch me there if you wanna say hi to baby in person!

[And for those who prefer more action-based interaction, Prompto will, in fact, be in the floor 2 chicken room, his egg held protectively in his lap with an arm always around it while he feeds and chatters to the chickens.

He's also taped a note to the chicken room door:]

ADOPT A CHICKEN!

Chickens are cute and don't grow very big, unlike basilisks and cockatrices. We lay the eggs you eat for breakfast and cook with! So please don't think about cooking us! We love you! Give us names and love us, too!

I dunno, chocobos and giant seagulls are preeeeeetty different! But baby chocobos look a lot like the chickens if that helps give you an idea! (((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o)))

Only one way to find out if they can, right? v/ᐠ-ᆽ-ᐟ \v

Avian anatomy tends to be straightforward once you know what you're doing. Of course, there's no way to rule out that birds on your world came to be via a completely different evolutionary path than they did in ours, in which case we'll likely be reduced to genetic analysis.

[This is probably intensely technobabble to Prompto, at least.]

[photoshooter]

[It's not not technobabble.]

And the genetic thing won't HURT them, right??

[personalityquarks]

At most, a pinprick, but I should be able to work from naturally shed feathers perfectly well.

[photoshooter]

Okay loose feathers sounds way better. I'm not gonna hurt them just to find out if they're a boy or a girl!

You guys are seriously impressive.
