Hippalektryon

Hippalektryons are an unusual breed of magical beast that originate from Greece, but are now domesticated worldwide.

Appearance
Hippalektryons are beasts that basically have the front halves of horses, and the back halves and wings of chickens, or roosters. Essentially, the main differences between the males and females are males are more colorful than females.

Behavior
Hippalektryons are skittish by nature, preferring to live in their own groups than interacting with strangers. Males tend to get into little fights over females during mating season, in which they use their hooves and their talons to fight. Basically, the one who wins gets the girl, and the one who loses has to find another girl. Eggs are usually laid in groups of 1-2, and the foals are able to walk around 90 minutes after hatching.
