			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Breaking news today &#8211; breedable fairies, created by KhrysT Neox, the creator of LG Customs in 7Seas Fishing. Mine are still hatching out from their eggs, but the main TP point for picking up these fairies has a couple of types out on display. Tracy Sparrowtree is currently doing up a post with many more details on these Mystical Creatures, so I&#8217;ll simply leave you with the pictures I took, and the SLurl to go play with the fairies, should you wish.You can pick up free affiliate vendors at the initial vending point, so I would suggest that soon you will find many of these vendors around SL markets also.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Clamables has just brought out a couple of new systems for Clam owners. There&#8217;s the boxing system, and a bit of a trade-in system also.</p>
<p><span id="more-6234"></span></p>
<h3>Clam and Pearl Boxing System</h3>
<p><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Clamables-Boxing-Demo.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6236" title="Clamables Boxing Demo" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Clamables-Boxing-Demo.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="305" /></a><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Clam-Boxer.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6242" title="Clam Boxer" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Clam-Boxer.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="349" /></a></p>
<p>This full boxing system is now for sale at the Clamables Research &amp; Development Area (ie. their mainstore), for L$200. Some examples of specials and rare clams boxed up in the flat round primmed system are provided below the crate in this demo-display you see in the image above.</p>
<p>On this system, the pearls are called ‘Eggs’ by the look of it, whilst lives are called lives. The type of clam is also denoted in text on the prim which contains the clam.</p>
<p>Note – you don’t necessarily need a Clamables boxing system – pearls and clams both can survive (the first indefinately, the second reliant on food) in inventory and can therefore be sold in their natural state.</p>
<p>However, with pearls being 3 prims, and lives 4 prims (plus the 1 prim food necessary to maintain them), a boxing system has been called for by some secondary sellers of the clams.</p>
<p>The boxing system only works with the latest versioned clams &#8211; that would be Version 2.110. Once the box has taken on the colourings and data of the clam targetted, it is a manual task to then put the clam into the contents of the box and set it for sale. This is a slight risk for the buyer, should the box not contain the clam itself, but one found in other boxing systems around in the breedables area.</p>
<h3>Make Juice out of your Clams (and trade them for mascots)</h3>
<p><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Clamables-Clam-Juice.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6237" title="Clamables Clam Juice" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Clamables-Clam-Juice.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="305" /></a><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Clamables-Clam-Juice-Jar.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6238" title="Clamables Clam Juice Jar" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Clamables-Clam-Juice-Jar.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="431" /></a></p>
<p>We&#8217;ve been promised a trade-in system for the clams for a little while now, and without much pomp and circumstance, the first iteration of this arrived quickly overnight with the following notice to groups. The notice towards these is as -</p>
<blockquote><p>I have a few bottles out that you can use to buy things with turning in your clams for liters(points).  The liters do not transfer from one bottle to another, nor can they be taken out once you put them in to a specific bottle.  Please take serious note with that.  Classics are worth 1 liter, Distince are worth 2 liters, Specials are worth 3 liters, Seasonals are worth 4 liters, Uniques are worth 5 liters.  As time goes on will be offering much more.  But figure for now, at least can see how it works.</p></blockquote>
<p>I went along to have a look, expecting to be able to pick up bottles (?) which I would somehow use to trade in my unwanted pearls into – most who own Clamables Clams will know how many clam pearls can be produced, and how rare it is to get a rare or special or distinct – something which has not as yet happened at my own clam farm.</p>
<p>The bottles set out are in front of giant animated clams with various names – Male Mascot (blue), Female Mascot (pink), Onyx Mascot (a reddish tinge), Ruby Mascot (an Onyx tinge – which makes me think the two bottles were at that time, set outside the wrong mascots) and a Goldie Mascot (metalic blue with a golden pearl inside).</p>
<p>The bottles are called Clam Juice Bottle, and each sports a finished cost of 50 liters. As I’ve only ever got classic clams (and who would trade in distincts or specials or uniques, when they are so rare on the markets), then it looked like I’d need fifty of them to earn a mascot.</p>
<p>It took me a little while to work out that the large crates holding the bottles and mascots are for sale, and hold the actual bottle I needed. Each is for sale at L$zero, so you can afford to take all of them, should you want.</p>
<p>Inside the Clam Juice folder you will find further trader instructions and TOS disclaimers. These seemed simple enough, so I took an Onyx Clam Juice bottle for a whirl.</p>
<p>Following the instructions, I put out the bottle in a skybox several hundred meters away from my clam bed. The bottles have hovertext  of how many accrued points you may have, plus your name on them. They are labelled ‘jars’ not bottles, by the way.</p>
<p>I rezzed out a pearl I’d just picked up today, and set the clam ‘jar’ into motion. There are two warning messages you need to get through before the pearl disappears and your counter text increases, which could get a little over the top for heavy breeders.</p>
<p>I then tested the bottle with live clams, pearls and a combination rezzed out around it. The bottles take pearls as a precedent, but later trade in the live clams you have out also. Hence the double whammy warning messages, in case you are within 5 meters of your breeding stock. If you haven’t renamed your clams and pearls, then you won’t know which one is being targetted by the trader bottle.</p>
<p>As I don’t have near enough clams to trade in as yet to get to the 50 litre level, I can’t tell you what happens once you reach the target. I would presume that the clam bottle then delivers you the mascot you are trading for. In the future, Clamables has plans to provide different items for trading in clams, but currently you have a choice of the five large mascot clams.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I was saddened to find out that one of Second Life&#8217;s longest standing breedables market is to close down. As I&#8217;d accidentally deleted this group from my group slots I wasn&#8217;t aware of this announcement until a few days after it was made. In my own opinion, Turtle Bay Market was one of the best designed markets out there &#8211; even if I consistently found myself lost amongst one of the many streets of stores across it. I understand that the Market is available for sale to those interested &#8211; and if I had won the lottery last week, I would have been first in line. However, if as at yesterday the market will be closing.</p>
<p><span id="more-6230"></span></p>
<blockquote><p>Turtle &amp; Bunny Bay Market Closing!!! Notecard of 24th July.</p>
<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p>It has come time for my sister, Karra Babii and I to close the market.  We are agreed that once something is no longer self sustaining, it&#8217;s time to move on to something that is.</p>
<p>As of August 6th, 2010 we will no longer have the market.</p>
<p>We hope this gives you all sufficient time to relocate or move stock to your other locations.</p>
<p>We are in the process of locking the rental boxes down.</p>
<p>Sis and I would like to thank you and our previous tenants for the fun ride and getting to know more pet fanciers like ourselves.</p>
<p>If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask.</p>
<p>Once again, thank you and our best wishes for your success in your future locations.</p>
<p>Huggles,</p>
<p>Mairead &amp; Karra</p></blockquote>
<p>Turtle &amp; Bunny Bay Market</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In my last News and Views post I blatantly speculated on the possible death in PinkyPigs, the first breedable pig on the grid.</p>
<p><span id="more-6222"></span></p>
<p>PinkyPigs have been around since  just before Christmas 2009 but several recent events in Second Life  suggest a darkened future. Firstly, the PinkyPig chief coder has moved on to work on Amaretto Horses, while the PinkyPig creator himself has closed down the pig&#8217;s mainstore, and the inworld update group has been quiet for several months with no chat or notices at all. And then the grid welcomed a new Pig breedable with MicroPetz only very recently. With no breedable markets for PinkyPigs, and my own searches turning up nothing towards PinkyPigs being for sale across the grid, I can only speculate seeing the writing on the wall for what I think are actually cute looking and sounding breedables.</p>
<p>Despite this, and the fact I am the only person I know who still has some PinkyPigs around the farm, I still have to face the real life (virtual) death from old age of each of my own pigs. And today came the expected belly-up of my one and only special pig &#8211; a Love Pig. Today he was 90 days old, and dead when I found him. Instead of deleting him, I&#8217;ve decided to put up a memorial, not only to this one special pig &#8211; which may be one of, if not the last of it&#8217;s kind on the grid, but to PinkyPigs in total.</p>
<p>Here he is, then. My memorial Love Pig. I sat him on a gravestone and a used piece of PinkyPig mud pit (with the script stripped out).</p>
<p>Note &#8211; all of the above does not signify the utter disappearance of PinkyPigs from the grid (or at least my own farm) as the vendors for food and mudpits still continue to disperse the products necessary to maintain them, including starter pig sets if you wish to start off with them. Maybe somebody else out there is doing so, and we can trade&#8230;</p>
<p>Goodbye my Love Pig. Hope you don&#8217;t mind being around as a statue.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Xundra Snowpaw, the creator behind the full XS Cactus and XS Quail Ecosystem has within the last hour, sent out free copyable food bowls for the quail, and watering cans for the cactus. This signifies the end of the XS product-line and markets, particularly as Xundra has abandoned her land where the mainstore was found.</p>
<p><span id="more-6215"></span>Xundra&#8217;s group are busy as I write this, arguing about what may have caused such a sudden and severe cutoff point. Talk winds around the need for Xundra to have hired support staff, and of looking after other people&#8217;s investments in the XS goods, in time (it took many many hours of personal time in fishing up some of the XS products in a quest for a special quail or a special cactus) and in the small market which was developing.</p>
<p>Others are suggesting they can understand Xundra&#8217;s thinking given what happened with a trusted friend Adriana Larimal &#8211; who abused her close access to the Quail, and exploited this by cloning for her own profits, under the pseudonym of several alternative avatars. Many of us are also, of course, unaware of some of the abusive content of IMs and emails Xundra may have been privy to in the near past from disenfranchised quail or cactus breeders with differences in expectations from what the main objectives of this creator had.</p>
<p>None of us can for sure suggest what factor &#8211; if you could put your finger on only one &#8211; was that final death knell in Xundra&#8217;s feelings towards a product which was meant to be fun, but perhaps got too big. Certainly we can all also see the other side of the coin where some people had invested money into their own third party business plans based on the XS Products, and therefore expected support and a continual future. But may I remind you of a couple of other breedable products which are now either virtually abandoned from development, or completely defunct in a similar fashion &#8211; sionChickens and Seid Mushrooms.</p>
<p>Like many, I currently am feeling extremely disappointed and a little let down. I&#8217;d only just set-out a large cactus garden on my new SIM, and was hoping to see another Level 5 cactus at some point. I have a large inventory of now worthless special cactus seeds kept aside because I hoped that at some point I could sell them for a little money to make up for the watering costs and prim costs supporting that inventory. I never thought that I would ever make a business out of it, but I am, and always will be, a collector and a game-player &#8211; my pursuit of the specials and elites against some startlingly bad odds as a small time breeder are what has kept me in Second Life myself lately, even moving SIMs to accommodate my prim needs.</p>
<p>Now, I am faced with another death in the breedables collection, and a large dent in my own plans and reasonings. I, of all people, understand the depth of feelings from both sides of this breedable story. But let&#8217;s not forget &#8211; this is a game, most of us will never make money out of breeding breedables, and as much as we call it an investment, it&#8217;s in virtual pixels only. Yes, with real life dollars or pounds in the background, but I think for myself I need to back away for a moment, and remember the actual fun and enjoyment I got out of those pounds I put into this particular breedable game.</p>
<p>Is it wrong for a breedable animal or plant to be &#8216;just for fun?&#8217; and accessible for free for all? Once you code that last script, test that last beta and put out the vendors to sell (or give away) such a product, at what point is it okay in the majority mind for you to take down the vendors and move on? Who is that majority? Who decides?</p>
<p>Really, it can only be the creator who decides not to create anymore. And that&#8217;s what Xundra Snowpaw has today decided to do regarding the XS Cactus and XS Quail. She&#8217;s left us with what we&#8217;ve currently got alive, and free food supplies to keep them going, and she&#8217;s left us with a small piece of <strong>Second Life and Breedables history</strong>.</p>
<p>Despite my own pain over this, and understanding of the emotions involved from all sides, I would like to now just say a simple thanks to the creator, Xundra, for the brief time I had with an exciting and addictive and affordable breedable product. Thanks for your creativity Xundra.</p>
<h4>Where to Now?</h4>
<p>Whilst many avatars are announcing the deletion of all XS products off their own sims, and the pursuit of &#8216;another breedable&#8217; (may I recommend EcoGen as an interesting ecosystem with potential?) some of us will still enjoy the cactus and quail we currently have out. Your cactus will produce dead seeds now  &#8211; the servers no longer exist to provide the data. So, all seeds are no longer applicable, including those you may find in seedbags &#8211; because to grow them you need to be sent a plant from the now defunct servers. The existing live cactus plants are now more for decor than anything, although they continue to produce [dead] seeds on blooming.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="color: #800080;">If anybody has some Level 5 Cactus &#8211; which I was only lucky enough to find one of, I would welcome giving those a home at my own farm, where I intend keeping a cacti display of this piece of history. </span></p>
<p>Questions still sit around the quail, although I can tell you now that you can take quail into inventory unboxed (as boxes will no longer be available) without harming them. Eggs laid before the servers stopped an hour or so ago, will still hatch out &#8211; I&#8217;ve tried them.</p>
<p>There are also several group members who are still crossing their fingers and &#8216;waiting it out&#8217; in the hope that some resolution can be found for the future of what is an extremely good product. Several coders have also previously contacted Xundra to offer to purchase the full XS product line, to continue it, and remain still trying to contact her for discussions. I too, live in a small hope that at some point in the future I might get another special Quail or cactus plant, but also would like to point out that Xundra previously made the Quail code opensource, and as yet we&#8217;ve not seen another animal released built on the back of this.</p>
<p>For those not in the XS Cactus group, you will not as yet, realise what is going on. Contact me if you need one of the copyable watering cans or quail food bowls to retain your plants and animals now. I&#8217;ll send a copy through.</p>
<p>Apologies for the emotions involved in such a post. The above image was taken at my newly set out XS Cactus garden on my own new SIM. I&#8217;d just got it together a day or so ago, and would like to complete the collection with a few missing lives at certain levels, and of course &#8211; the level 5&#8242;s I never got. I&#8217;m still quite proud of that collection, and intend keeping it as I currently do with a small crop of Seid Mushrooms. RIP, the breeding cactus.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the last couple of days, those with EcoGen tulips on the EcoGen group have been sent some snails and new compost to play with. The EcoGen snails hold genetics just like the tulips do, and are breedable &#8211; they breed under a rock. Now the EcoGen range includes genetic-holding tulips, snails, the bees which buzz around a sim providing for propogation, and hints towards other species included in the new version of the EcoGen compost.</p>
<p><span id="more-6176"></span>With some bugs ironed out, and some customer requests, the latest version is now available at the EcoGen mainstore for everybody- but firstly arrived through the group in-world only over the last weekend.</p>
<p>You don&#8217;t need to have EcoGen breeding tulips, as the snails will live without them &#8211; you can purchase dead tulips to feed them on from the mainstore and sattelite EcoGen stores at some markets &#8211; which will be supplied with the new snail products shortly.</p>
<p>However, if you do happen to be growing EcoGen tulips, you will find that you have a naturally ecosystem developing with these new arrivals &#8211; the snails will eat your dead tulips from Version 2.0 onwards (not the older versions &#8211; although their spored offspring will give tulips which will decompose and feed the snails).</p>
<p>You can buy a snail individually &#8211; particularly the three more special snails in pink, turquoise or a blue &#8211; or in packs of the pale snails which act as a good starter pack for breeding snails.</p>
<p>The snails will take about seven days to mature (if you do get babies), and will require a <strong>snail rock</strong> to breed under &#8211; the rock is sold separately, and is texture and shape changeable to suit your environment. As an additional accessory you can also purchase a &#8216;<strong>snail trap</strong>&#8216; which is in essence a 10&#215;10 meter 1 prim fence to surround your 10&#215;10 metre EcoGen compost mat. (Or you can simply build your own to contain the roaming snails). This snail trap is also texture change, and will keep your snails put.</p>
<p>The snails feed on dead tulip parts &#8211; the latest version of the tulips (which can be bred from your current older versions as long as you have the latest compost). The snails make these dead tulips decompose slowly onto your grass mat &#8211; and this provides food reserves for the snails (a statistic which can be seen from the Health menu option when you click a snail). As with the tulips, the snails breed with genetics, and you can get some interesting results from the snails.</p>
<p>To complete this new release, there is now a new <strong>watering can</strong> and a new <strong>Version 1.3 </strong><em>[Updated] </em><strong>of the compost mat</strong>. You will need this new compost to provide additional benefits to you &#8211; if you already own this mat, you should have been sent out a new one already (or several over the last weekend). Swap your old mat out for the last versioned one.</p>
<p>The new compost 1.3 mat contains new features &#8211; both supporting your snails and with other hidden features. We were told earlier that this compost might just have weeds in it, but I also have just discovered something else, when swapping out an older version 1.0 mat with the latest updated version. In the notecard which arrived on the first release of the snails and new version compost, we were told that there is a possibility of four &#8216;new species&#8217;, so perhaps I accidentally discovered one of these today. <em>See image below</em>.</p>
<p>The new version compost also holds a higher fertility rate to create more tulips for you. There will, apparently, also be fertiliser available to boost this fertility.</p>
<p>The very latest Version 2.0 of the watering can also contains scripts which will look at SIM permissions. Watering won&#8217;t work if you&#8217;re on a SIM which doesn&#8217;t allow for the physics of pushing or scripts to run, as the can is filled with a physical water ball. The new cans will give a message if you attempt to grow your tulips in SIMs which don&#8217;t allow it.</p>
<p>Note &#8211; because of a slight problem with the initial snail release, and their quickness to die, I can also show you what happens to snails that die, as this happened to a few of my first. <em>See image below</em>. Click on these little crosses and they will vanish with a message.</p>
<p>The increased fertility that is provided by the new compost version has also done another SL resident some good &#8211; Zippy Cortes found the red, white and blue tulip overnight also, and sent me a picture to feature on this blog post. Lucky avatar! <em>See final image below</em>.</p>
<p>Make sure you have a compost tile, and snail rock tile (if you have this) at Version 1.3 <em>[Updated]</em>. The watering can should be version 2.0. Be liberal with the use of the latest EcoGen Dead Tulips &#8211; available in bulk packs &#8211; scatter this across the compost tile to feed your snails on until your own tulip crop can support them.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Annika Designs</strong> is a find I made a little while ago when searching for a home for my turtles.  I had a picture in my head of a waterfall enclosure and decided to find out if any such thing existed, well I was delighted to discover it does.  My turtles now live happily in their turtle pond, made by <strong>Bitsy Giano</strong> for a friend that wanted something a little different for her turtles.</p>
<p>Annika Designs specialises in landscaping with an abundance of choices in waterfalls, caves, grotto&#8217;s and various other sculpts, there are also some lovely cottages and other structures.  Most of the caves have waterfalls and many have other pleasant extras like poseballs, rugs and some are fully furnished.  You will find plenty of space inside the caves to fit your dragon family and yourself.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-6194" href="http://thechickendiaries.com/precious-dragons-annika-designs-caves-and-waterfalls/annikacave/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6194" title="annikacave" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/annikacave.jpg" alt="Hidden Getaway Grotto" width="480" height="427" /></a></p>
<p>Some take a bit of experience in set up such as the <a href="https://www.xstreetsl.com/modules.php?name=Marketplace&amp;file=item&amp;ItemID=1419671" target="_blank">Hidden Getaway Grotto</a> which actually has a hidden underground cave and requires digging 15 metres underground, it is 91 prims and at a cost of 1500L is quite impressive.  Therefore this cave requires you to have terraforming rights to the land you are on.</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-6195" href="http://thechickendiaries.com/precious-dragons-annika-designs-caves-and-waterfalls/insidecave/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6195" title="insidecave" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/insidecave.jpg" alt="Plenty of space inside" width="480" height="480" /></a></p>
<p>There are however many that rezz straight out of the box and onto your land, the <a href="https://www.xstreetsl.com/modules.php?name=Marketplace&amp;file=item&amp;ItemID=2220895" target="_blank">Annika Restoration Point</a> is a double storey cave with a pool on the top level, the bottom has a sandy floor which would be a perfect home for your Precious Dragons and it is 94 prims and only 699L.</p>
<div id="attachment_6196" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-6196" href="http://thechickendiaries.com/precious-dragons-annika-designs-caves-and-waterfalls/furnishedchoice/"><img class="size-full wp-image-6196" title="furnishedchoice" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/furnishedchoice.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="480" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Furnished or Unfurnished</p></div>
<p>The <a href="https://www.xstreetsl.com/modules.php?name=Marketplace&amp;file=item&amp;ItemID=2402452" target="_blank">Forbidden Desires Cavern</a> is a jungle cave that is available fully furnished with campfire, hot tub, love bed and cuddle rug.  There is also various poses available in the waterfall.  All up there are 214 prims in the furnished version there is also an unfurnished version available inworld.  The variety of caves available is outstanding and there truly is one to suit every taste.  There is the added advantage of personalising a living space to enjoy with your dragons and with all those poseballs you might get a cuddle also.</p>
<div id="attachment_6197" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 490px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-6197" href="http://thechickendiaries.com/precious-dragons-annika-designs-caves-and-waterfalls/mystic-crystal-cavern/"><img class="size-full wp-image-6197" title="Mystic Crystal Cavern" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Mystic-Crystal-Cavern.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="331" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Mystic Crystal Cavern</p></div>
<p>The sim is beautifully set up with paths leading to the various caves available and a lot to look at, so I suggest you take a friend to wander around with you.  If you persevere you will find yourself at the No 1 Dragon Cave option at the end of the path.  The <a href="https://www.xstreetsl.com/modules.php?name=Marketplace&amp;file=item&amp;ItemID=1528639" target="_blank">Mystic Crystal Cavern</a> is perfect for the new dragon owner with a total of 112 prims, it has beautiful texture change crystals, a large variety of tropical and jungle plants, Custom designed fog emitters programmed for all the detail and low lag.  Texture change sculpted crystals have Peridot, Citrine, Ruby, Aquamarine, Amethyst, Clear Quartz, Smoke Quartz, and Rose Quartz as options and there are 2 sets to change, so it is possible to have 2 contrasting colours.  This particular cavern has 3 levels, the bottom level is filled with the lovely crystals, and a pool with waterfall flowing down from the second level, which also has a small bridge which leads you up to the third level which is a nice flat spot with plants and vines surrounding.  I imagine there would be plenty of room for a variety of dragons, with the multiple levels and high roof making for plenty of space available.  If you, like me, are waiting expectantly for the release of Precious Dragons Annika Designs is the perfect place to take a wander and you might find the perfect first home for your first dragons.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is exactly the sort of news one wants to wake up to in the morning.  The Creators of Petable Turtles have announced they have decided to eliminate the generic food option and therefore lower the cost of hatchless food.  The Petable Turtle team continue to surprise and delight me with their innovative and fun ideas.  Making something cheaper!!  That will certainly knock the wind out of any complaints that it&#8217;s all about the money for breedable creators and put a smile on the face of many turtle lovers.</p>
<p>The change will start July 25th and is mainly due to the fact that few people use the generic food and if so only for cost savings rather than actually wanting eggs to hatch automatically, it will also eliminate confusion and accidentally getting the wrong food.  Hatchless food will lower to current generic prices saving up to 400L for the larger size boxes of food.  No update to turtles or vendors is needed, and all generic food bought before the change will be automatically converted to hatchless.  This will be cheaper and easier for everyone in the long run and good news for turtle breeders everywhere.  There will be some changes to consider, as outlined on the group notecard:</p>
<blockquote><p>If you only use generic food, you will be impacted by this change the most, but thankfully there are very few people who are in this scenario.  All of the generic food that you have pre-bought that is on our server will be automatically converted to hatchless food.  This will mean that you will need to begin using the hatchess 2.0 box/HUD to fill your bowls &#8211; if you try to use the generic 2.0 box/HUD, it will tell you that all food is now hatchless.  Any bowls that you have filled with generic will continue to have generic food in them.  Because of that, we recommend letting your turtles empty any bowls that currently have generic in them before converting them over to using hatchless.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some changes and new features at existing <strong>Breedable Markets </strong>in Second Life, plus a new opening. Here’s the first roundup of these.</p>
<p><span id="more-6184"></span></p>
<h3>The Nest Egg</h3>
<p><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/The-Nest-Egg-Western-Theme.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6206" title="The Nest Egg - Western Theme" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/The-Nest-Egg-Western-Theme.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="293" /></a></p>
<p>The Nest Egg Market, across two SIMs, has taken on a new look over the past month. This market used to be themed as a mediaval market with close-set stores. It now is a themed Western market, complete with tumbleweed and a lot of wind across the more spacious layout.</p>

<h3>The Farm and The Village Markets</h3>
<p><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/The-Farm-Offer-Board-Barn.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6207" title="The Farm - Offer Board Barn" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/The-Farm-Offer-Board-Barn.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="330" /></a><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/The-Farm-Zyngo.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6208" title="The Farm - Zyngo" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/The-Farm-Zyngo.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="290" /></a></p>
<p>The Farm Market and it’s sister market, The Village, now has Offer Board Barns up. You can rent an offer board to layout your best bunnies on. The Farm also has a very popular Zyngo area, featuring highly demanded bunnies as prizes for your gambling enjoyment.</p>

<p>Similarly to other main markets, the Bunny Wonderland Market also has a large Offer Board Barn setout.</p>

<p>This last weekend saw the grand opening of a large PlantPet superstore, Best Friends Farm PlantPet Super Store. There is a grand opening raffle, and the large store features boxes and boxes of PlantPets includng rares for sale, priced similarly to those found at other stores.</p>
<p>Out the front and around the back this PlantPets store is surrounded by other breedable market buildings and rental stores and stalls, plus large parcels of land to rent from Best Friends Farm.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some more products, although I think I had better rename this whole series ‘Products of the Fortnight or even Month’ given the frequency I manage to publish these. This time it&#8217;s not really all my fault &#8211; my entire SL family rooted up from the spots we were living on, and have moved over to a new SIM. Actually, it would be fair to say &#8211; we&#8217;re still moving, and probably will still be moving in two week&#8217;s time.</p>

<h4>Sugar Bunnies’ Ground Sculps</h4>
<p><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Sugar-Bunnies-GroundSculps.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6165" title="Sugar Bunnies GroundSculps" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Sugar-Bunnies-GroundSculps.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="508" /></a></p>
<p>There are lots of nice presentation products around for Ozimals Bunnies, but when I was walking past this it caught my eye, for the sheer simplicity.</p>
<p>In the pack you get six different textured um blobs – they’re called ‘Sculps’ and are copy modify, so you can enlarge them or fit them to a pen or a small display bench.</p>
<p>Although they are pictured being used for Ozimals Bunnies, I would suggest that other static animal or plant displays of a small nature might also look good on this – for instance HunnyBunny eggs would look good.</p>
<p>Available as a pack of six for L$60 at $ugar Bunnie$ stores – here’s a landmark to their store at <a href="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Bunny%20Wranch/230/93/23" target="_blank">Bunny Wranch Market</a>.</p>
<p><em>For : Ozimals Bunnies or other static animals on display.</em></p>
<h4>BBB – Bunny Gem Mine Display</h4>
<p><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/BBB-Bunny-Gem-Mine.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6171" title="BBB Bunny Gem Mine" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/BBB-Bunny-Gem-Mine.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="504" /></a></p>
<p>Best Bunny Breeding – you may recall my review featuring the Bunnies Display Baskets by the same people – now have this Bunny Gem Mind Display – three rocks, 2 terrains and 10 gems, and 11 prims per mine. You can customise the display via a texture change menu.</p>
<p>Good (obviously) for displaying gem eyes bunnies in, but the reason why I really noticed this, is that the gem mine looks like a little cave. My niece has been searching out caves lately, because of those breedable dragons coming soon. I don’t know whether the dragons can be made to stand still on a display like this, but if they can – wouldn’t this be ideal for selling them in too?</p>
<p>Available from Best Bunny Breeding stores across many markets, for L$350. I found these at <a href="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Scooter/180/11/21" target="_blank">Bunny Wonderland.</a></p>
<p>For : <em>Ozimals Bunnies (or other small static or still animals for sale)</em></p>
<h4>Jolly Farm Bunny Hats</h4>
<p><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/JollyFarm-BunnyHats.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6166" title="JollyFarm BunnyHats" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/JollyFarm-BunnyHats.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="494" /></a><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/JollyFarm-Whipped-Topping-Hat.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6167" title="JollyFarm Whipped Topping Hat" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/JollyFarm-Whipped-Topping-Hat.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="489" /></a></p>
<p>Jolly Farm specialises in Ozimals Bunnies, and several of their products have already been featured on The Chicken Diaries. But aren’t these cute also? <strong>Bunny Hats</strong> – to be worn by static bunnies (with movement off) on display. They are a prop only – bunnies don’t have attachment points. For L$100 you get ten different hats, in three sizes each – small, medium and large.</p>
<p><strong>Whipped Topping Hat</strong> – you get one for you, and one to place on top of the new Strawberry Elite bunny, for L$50. On the same floor and for the same price you will also find a <strong>Pancake Hat</strong>.</p>
<p>Available from <a href="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Lionheart%20Scar/162/127/28" target="_blank">Jolly Farm</a>.</p>
<p>For : <em>Ozimals Bunnies (although the small one is worth a try on a static MicroPetz piggy also)</em></p>
<h4>Posh Pets Backpack HUDs</h4>
<p><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Posh-Pets-Backpack-Hud.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6168" title="Posh Pets Backpack Hud" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Posh-Pets-Backpack-Hud.jpg" alt="" width="298" height="308" /></a></p>
<p>These are very interesting. You can choose between a Bunneh Backpack Weaved with Lite Hud V1 for L$150 or with a Custom HUD for L$250.</p>
<p>The hud allows you to combine and change textures and colours on the woven backpacks. The Lite version comes with 4 Weave and 4 Leather textures in 9 earth tones with a full color menu. The base of the backpack plus metals – the rings, and buckles, plus flaps and straps can all be defined through the HUD.</p>
<p>The full custom hud comes with 15 of the weave and leather textures. The backpacks themselves also allow you to nclude a landmark and notecard – a script is included and the backpacks are modifable. With the change texture script you can also create and use custom tags – so you can add your own business logo, and use for commercial purposes in promoting your business.</p>
<p>Of course, with an open backpack like this, it is also handy to carry around your Ozimals Bunny within (or perhaps an enlarged MicroPetz pig, if they come in the correct size).</p>
<p>Available from <strong>Posh Pets</strong> stalls across the markets, I found my own copy at <a href="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Gem/145/104/802" target="_blank">JD’s Auctions</a>.</p>
<p><em>For : Ozimals Bunnies or other similar static animals which can be &#8216;held&#8217;.</em></p>
<h4>Cosmic Spaceship Pen</h4>
<p><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Cosmic-Spaceship-Pen.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6169" title="Cosmic Spaceship Pen" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Cosmic-Spaceship-Pen.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="468" /></a></p>
<p>Altney’s Turtles has this ‘Cosmic Spaceship Pen’ for sale for L$75. It hums with a noise that I would fancy could get annoying quite quickly, but the space effect inside is also quite mesmerising. I imagine it’s been designed for those new types of Petable turtles – the Cosmics, with their glowy eyes and all.</p>
<p>Available at <strong>Altney’s Turtles</strong> – I found this at the <a href="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Serenity%20Lake/238/158/21" target="_blank">Forest Friends Market</a>.</p>
<p><em>For : Petable Turtles (Cosmics)</em></p>
<h4>Kessis Seedbag Dispenser</h4>
<p><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Kessis-Seedbag-Dispenser.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6170" title="Kessis Seedbag Dispenser" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Kessis-Seedbag-Dispenser.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="498" /></a></p>
<p>Here’s something simple but very useful. A seedbag dispenser for XS Cactus seeds. Fill it up, and click to rez out one seedbag. Best yet, it’s only L$35 and copy/mod so you can have as many out as you need.</p>
<p>I found this at The Nest Egg Marketplace and the <a href="http://slurl.com/secondlife/The%20Ancient%20Isle/37/78/23" target="_blank">Kessis stall</a> there.</p>
<p><em>For : XS Cactus</em></p>
<h4>Awesome Blossom – Kawaii Bunny Hutch and Blossom Bunnies</h4>
<p><a href="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Awesome-Blossom-Kawaii-Bunny-Hutch-and-Blossom-Bunnies-Seat.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-6172" title="Awesome Blossom - Kawaii Bunny Hutch and Blossom Bunnies Seat" src="http://thechickendiaries.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Awesome-Blossom-Kawaii-Bunny-Hutch-and-Blossom-Bunnies-Seat.jpg" alt="" width="494" height="311" /></a></p>
<p>These two products were released a little while ago from Awesome Blossom. The Kawaii Bunny Hutch features a little white picket fence around the white hutch. The hutch has a blue trimmed window box and lattice cladding below.</p>
<p>Inside the fenced area, you will find a barrel holding some lovely gerbera daisy blossoms and a bowl of peppers. On the other corner, a heap of hay and a fork complete the little scene. 77 prims in total for this hutch and it retails for L$199.</p>
<p>There is also a Bunny Watchin’ Bale with four sit animations included. This also features the daisy blooms as decor, with a red pillow holding one of the sits. L$99 and 7 prims.</p>
<p>Both little builds are copy, with the Bunny Hutch also being modifiable, so that you can take away some of the accessories if you’re short of prims.</p>
<p>Found at <a href="http://slurl.com/secondlife/Morning%20Glory/73/139/22" target="_blank">Awesome Blossom</a>.</p>
<p><em>For : Ozimals Bunnies, obviously. But applicable for any static cute animals also, or other breedables looking for a cute little pen. </em></p>
