@/Denial @/Punkinator919 a bunch of people got upset that the chickens were not accurate to their real-world counterparts, and a bunch of other people were upset over the “lilypad lochness” because a “lochness” is not a thing. Loch Ness is a real place, Loch meaning Lake, where the urban legend (the Loch Ness monster) originates from. So, Lake Ness. It was basically like naming the familiar “Lilypad Lakemichigan” as one person put it. I didn’t get either drama personally, but the chicken thread was locked. ill try to find a link to it in a minute here
Here’s the chicken thread. as you can see, it was… something.
edit edit: Another chicken forum from suggestions, petitioning to have the names changed and/or art updated.

Thank you for the context.. I find it a bit silly but I guess I understand. I'd be confused if a Dachshund was suddenly called a German Shepard. Just wish we didn't get 'color chicken' instead. Could've been neat to have a unique color like name- maybe the color that shares closest to the dragon color wheel. Dunno. I absolutely loved the 10th anniversary apparel items and the achievement system.

Thanks @ the responses, I see! Can't say I'm against accuracy so I get it. :) Kind of a shame but maybe we'll get more realistic chicken breeds at some point! Lochness I would've let slide as a kind of pun, but the new name isn't bad either.

Can I just say thank you again for the screenreader access fixes? Because squee! :D Both the extremely kind and clueful response and the sheer speed of the updates have given me a lingering case of the warm fuzzies over here!
