Description
The Cockatrice is pretty much a chicken of this world (even if more ferocious), and the non-tamed specimens have a cementificating saliva.This species is particularly subject to brood parasiting by a far more dangerous species, the Basilisk. In this case, the adults keep feeding the baby Basilisk because a displeasured Basilisks is far more likely to activate its Stare of Death power than a satisfied one.

A bit plain, but they get the job done. I do like the nest parasitism bit, it adds a natural character that a lot of fantasy creatures lack.
That ovirapto- I mean, cockatrice chick is adorable, by the way.

I appreciate you appreciate, thanks! XD That, and plus kinda explains the Basislisk's peculiar birthing method.
Hehe, a small detail I put at work nearly finished, glad you like the little one.

Considering that the cockatrice is my favorite mythic monster, this is easily a favored post of mine. You matched up their saurian counterparts rather well I think. Long neck and tail, serpentine for the basilisk while the cockatrice looks like a hybrid of reptile and chicken, perfect for their roles.

Thanks dude, I appreciate you like them. Yeah, they're nothing really special, but I think that points them out more. I mean, just imagine to have your own domestic flock of Cockatrices (as such non-poisonous) than you get inside the pen to find death staring at you in the eye!
