The Chicken Diaries

This morning I woke up to some sad IM news. Lucky my black chicken had IM’ed me to tell me he’d died of old age. This geniunely gave me a lump in my throat. Lucky is one of the sionChicken killers – a race that was produced slightly over a year ago, and shortly will [...]

The Alphaville Herald has done it again, featured an article on sionChickens. This time it’s based on a talk called “On Chickens” by a scholarly chap named Patrick Davison. More a perfomance piece than a conclusive study, the talk somehow comes to the conclusion that sionChickens explain the possible meaning of second Life. Technorati Tags: [...]

Ouch, just as we recover from the Petable Turtle server movements, sionLabs decides to bring out further drastic changes on the chicken front. I had not realised that the sionVendors had been down for 24 hours over the same time period as the turtles, as we had not needed to purchase from the vendors. But [...]

We were invited by Callie Cline to visit Posh farms, a store set up a few months ago, catering for pampered pets / AI animals within Second Life. Set up by Callie and barnesworth anubis, the shop offers quite a few pens and accessories for both the sionChicken, Petable Turtle of (upcoming) bunny enthusiasts. Technorati [...]

Well, it’s me again. My last item for a while, as we are having a rough time in real life at the moment, but Aunty Audrie will be still around, I’m sure. This is just an update on the Pacific estate’s experiments with AI pets, including the sionChickens and my Aunt’s infatuation with turtles. Technorati [...]

Well, well, Well…[/me shakes head]. I went away for a few days and I come back to find dead chickens, and turtle hatchlings. My Aunt has vanished off somewhere when she saw me pop up on her mystitool, and I’m standing here looking at turtles. Technorati Tags: Petable Turtles, sionChicken

As I’m currently on real life holiday, with limited broadband access, I’ve been late in posting up the latest sionChicken and sionCorn notecards which came out – on the 17th of August. But both can now be found in full in the sionChicken FAQs section onsite here. Notecard | Food and Fraud – released 17th [...]

This is a very personal blog, but one I’ve been considering for some time. The sionChicken DRAMA still keeps reaching the airwaves, spurted along by consistent and often biased views in second life gossip blogs and newspapers, latching onto one aspect of sionChickens only. It gets now to the point where if you come out [...]

I’ve added some new farmers markets, a couple of new sections, some new in-world groups, and some new links for sionCorn onto the Great Big sionChicken and sionCorn List now. Originally posted in June of this year, this is the third iteration as the markets change. Additionally, you will find plenty of FAQs, Notecards, and [...]

Late last night – very late – I got ‘laid’ a GLITCH egg. I’ve heard tales of them for sometime on the sionChicken groups, but as I’m not a commercial farmer, and only hold a pen of a dozen chickens, I thought statistically I had no chance of ever seeing this happen with my sionChickens. [...]
