Ty So Much For Answering My Earlier Ask!

Ty so much for answering my earlier ask!

I have another question, since sirens are so good at mimicry and pattern recognition could you teach one to talk? I think it would be funny to be mugged by a siren like that. To be on your lunch break and hear someone say, "SANDWICH, NOW." and it's a faun staring at you.

if you mean "talk" as in copy a sound a human makes to use in the future for a reaction, then yeah they do that all the time. but for most words they don't really understand the meaning of them (they have their own way of communicating amongst themselves tho). they might be able to understand that the word "sandwich" means a food thing, but they really don't understand that "now!" is anything more than "i saw another human talk to someone in this way/this tone of voice, and they handed them something". so yeah if you did the classic conditioning method of repeating a word until they copied you and gave them food for it you can teach them words, but that doesn't mean they understand what they're saying. if they did want something you have their go-to behavior is to sit at your feet and just stare with big wet eyes going "hiiii :D for meeee?? :D"

gaeilge: má cíaliann tú "ciant" mar ag cópail torran a deanann daoine chun freagairt a fáil, deannan siad é sin alán. ach le haigh an chuid is mó de focail níl fóis acú can a cialíann siad (tá a slí féan chun ciant le a chéaile). bedir gur fedir leo nasc a déanamh idir an focail "ceapaire" agus bia ach ní fedir leo chial a deanamh as an focail "anois!" mar rud éagan seacais "connaic mé daoine rud mar seo a rá chuigh daoine eile, agus tug siad rud dóbh". má tug tú bia dóbh nuiar a dúart siad focail nua beidh siad ag rá an focail, ach níl fois acú cah a bhuil siad ag rá. má tá siad ag iarradh bia úait beidh siad ag suí ah dó cosaí ag duill "dia duitttttt :DD máis é do toil é :D???"

also another (probably not) fun fact about sirens, a lot of them have nicotine addictions due to eating too many cigarette butts. this means they get withdrawal symptoms when they go too long without them and just go into a rage. this also means they learned to vape and use heat/fire to light traditional cigarettes. but they also are seen taking hallucinogenic substances for fun too (eg mushrooms)

rud eile (mí) grannmhar faoi truptín, tá andúil nicotín ag a lán dóbh mar tá siad ag ithe bun de na toitín. ciallian é seo gur fedir leo preashach as fearg a deanamh don áit nuar a nach fedir leo iad a fáil. is fedir leo e-cigs a úsaid agus toitín a lasadh le tras/tine. agus itheann siad drugí (mar shampla muisiriún) don craic.

cothíocht fánas/faun nutrition

is fánas anmhithe a bhí crothithe chun bruscéar a thóg isteach agus feoil, teicstíl agus a lán rudaí eille a chur amach. is fedir le fánas i bhad níos mó rudaí a ithe ná anmhithe eile, ach fós cathig cóimheá idir na cothigh a beith ann.

mar is rúmináid íad fánas ní cathigh siad aimíonaigéad nó próitéin a fáil ó a bia, fightear iad ó a micróorgánigh i a córas díleá. itheann na micróorgánigh an pleastach agus briseann siad iad síos go chemicúil ionnas gur fedir an fánas é a díleá, nuair a fighann an bactéar bás súann an fán na aimíonaigéad ó a corp.

aiste bia don fánas/ diet for the faun

tá 95% de aiste bia fánas brúscéar crua, i a aiste bia, ba chóir go bhuil brúscéar ó líonadh talúin nó pleastach crua acú le nithe go saor don lá ar fad, tá pleastach crua an-tábhactach chun an córas dílea a cómead ag bogadha, agus líomhann sé a fiachala síos. tugtear timpeall 5kg do peilléad do fán ar leith gach lá, sa peilléad tá vitimíní, riandúil, agus cothig eile gur nach fightear i a brúscéar crua. má thugtear ionnomarcha peilléad dóbh is fedir na bacteir sa córas dílea a bheith mí-cothrom.

ba chóir go bhuil idir 60-95% (breathann ar a pór, chéan úsaid ect) MPP (pleastach)i a aiste bia ar fad. i a peilléad ba chór go bhuill tipeall 60% MMP ann. is é an MPP chad a bristear siad go dtí comhdhúil eille mar prótein, ola agus bia do na microrgánach ina corp.

i a peilléad ba chór go bhuil timpeall 11-15% de carbohídrát (ag braith ar achlaíacht, úsaid nó pór) sa peilléad. tá súcra an-tábhactach do fuinneamh an corp, tá dromhclá bia foinse chun iad a fháil gan peilléad.

tá prótein an mead lán prótein sa bia, is fedir an fánas prótein a díleá ó MPP, ach tá sé tábhactach é a fáil go dírach fresin, ó faoinse mar sicín cúbarnaí, is faoinse maith de ola agus iaran iad seo fresin (ba chór go bhuil 10-15% prótein sa peilléad)

tá ola tábhactach chun cabhrú le díleá de vitimín intuaslagtha i ola (m.sh vitinín K, vitimin A) agus mar fuinneamh, de gnáth cuirtear 0.7% ola sa peilléad (is fedir le microrgánach sa corp ola a crothú as MMP fresin)

is raindúil ná grúpa de mianra atá fíor tábhactach do feidhmiú an corp, tá na mianra ná copar, fluairíd, iarann, sinc, cóbalt agus maignéisiam. fightear an fán iad seo i méad ulmhór i a aiste bia náduirthe. chun na leibhéal a comead síos i áit sábhalte, crothig DerCo peisteanna chun na raindúil barraíocht a thóg isteach ina corp ionnas chun dílea iad ó an fán a moilligh. nuair a fighann an peist bhás is fedir iad a dílea i slí níos mall (agus fightear aminoaigead ó a corp fresin). má tá ionnomarcha carbóhidráit sa rúmen is fedir na peisteanna a marú.

cothiacht do fánas mar-muic nó pór feoil

níos mó protein agus MPP chun na mattán a fhás agus ionnas go bhuil fuinneamh acú chun a bheith cuirthe as-raca (20% prótein, 65%% MPP). níos lú carbóhidráit i chás fánas mar-muice amháin(10% carbóhidráit do mar-muice) da bharr nach ba chór siad a bheidh ag inilt, ach tá níos mó carbóhidráit ag teastáil ag crossantach de bharr atá siad ag inilt agus chun níos mó sail a crothú(15% carbóhidráit do crossantach, 15% amhprótín, 60% MPP).

cothiacht do fánas caorín bán-dearg nó pór ollan

breathann an méad prótin, MPP, agus raindúil ar chéan sighas tecstíl atá tú ag iarradh fás. má tá tú ag irarradh níos mó poliestir sa ollan is fedir peilléád le 70% MPP, 10% amhprótín, agus 15% carbóhidráit a tabhart dóbh, ach ní fedir iad a chur ag innilt de bharr nach buil a crúbanna crua go leoir gan níos mó ola agus amhprótin. fightear níos mó airgead as méad políestir níos airde, ach chun slánteachas an fán, tá peilléad le 50% MPP, 20% amhprótin, 20% carbóhidráit. is fedir púdar garleog a chur ina bia fresin chun cur cosc ar cuileog.

cothiacht do leanaírud agus fánas ag iompar

tá i bhad níos mó amhprótein, raindúil, agus carbóhidtáit ag teastail ag fán ag iompar ionnas gur fedir leo na leanaí a fás. má nach fightear a méad cothig is fedir leo tit tinn ó tocsaeime torrachas nó fiabhras bainne. cuirtear 40% MPP, 30% amhprótein, 20% carbóhidráit agus 5% ola agus 5% raindúil agus vitiminí (go háirithe calciam, iarann agus copar), tugtear na leanaítiní an bia chéana go dtí go bhuil siad timpeall 6 seactain aois.

cothiacht do fánas atá as-raca

do fánas as an raca ní fedir MPP a tabhart dóbh de bar nach bhuil rúmen acú, cathigh siad leact cothig le a lán amhprótein, carbhóhidráit agus raindúil. timpeall 50% prótein, 30% carbóhidráit agus 20% raindúil agus vitiminí

do fánas atá arais ar an raca, cathigh siad 50% prótein, 30% carbóhidráit, 10% raindúil agus vitiminí agus 10% MMP, bí cuairamach chun leact próibhitheach a tabhart leis.

cothiacht do folladortór

breathann sé ar úsaid an folladortór, ach de gnáth tughtear leacht chéana a tugtear do na fánas atá as-raca, ach do folladortór a úsaidtear chun folla a déanamh tá níos mó iarann ag teastáil.

english;

fauns are animals that are designed to turn garbage and other waste products into meat, fabric, and many other things. fauns can eat a huge variety of things, but they still need a balenced diet

as ruminants they dont need to have amino acids or proteins suplimented in their diet, they can synthesize them from microrganisms in their digestive tract. the microrganisms break down plastics (in conentrate feed products this is called MPP, microplastic polymer) into other compounds that the faun can digest (oils, vitimins, ect) then once the microbes die the fauns body can digest the amino acids from its body.

diet for the faun

95% of a fauns diet should be hard landfill waste, this will be their main source of nutrients, it keeps their digestive system moving and it keeps their teeth in shape. hard waste (or "roughage") should be available 24/7. fauns should be given typically 5kg of concentrate daily, the concentrates have vitimins, minerals, and other nutrients the fauns mightnt get enough of from hard waste, feeding too many concentrates can make the diet unbalenced

beetween 60-90% of a fauns entire diet shouls be MPP (depending on breed, activity levels, use ect). they should have at least 60% MPP in their concentrate/pellet.

fauns need to have around 11-15% carbohydrates in their pellet (again, depending on breed, use, ect). fauns already get plenty of sugars from food waste in their roughage.

fauns can synthesize protein in their digestive tract, but pure protein in their diet is good for their health, sources like battery hens or offal (have to be tested for disease) also provide oils and vitimins. fauns need around 10-20% crude protein in their pellet

trace elements are a group of minerals that have many uses to the body, they're safe to have in small amounts, but the fauns natural diet makes them take in far too many than normal. to combat this, DerCo created many speceis of worms to consume the minerals so the fauns can absorb them at a much slower rate (they also get amino acids from the worm corpses). if the faun has too much sugar in its diet this can kill the worms.

nutrition for swinelikes or other meat breeds

meat breeds need a lot of protein and MPP to grow muscle and for energy to be off-racked. (ideally 20% protein, 65% MPP in pellet), swinelikes specifically need less carbohydrates as they dont move much and their meat is very lean (10% carbohydrates in pellet ideally). curlcoats and meat breeds who graze however need a higher amount of sugars since theyre more active and need to grow fat in their meat (meatbreeed cross ration is typically 15% carbohydrates, 15% protein and 60% MPP)

nutrition for heatherhorns and other fiber breeds

the ratios depend on what fiber texture you're looking for. if you want a higher amount of polyester in the wool you can feed a pellet with 70% MPP, 10% protein, and 15% carbohydrate, but this means that you wont be able to let them graze since their hooves will be too soft due to low levels of protein and oils. you get more money for a higher amount of polyester, but for the fauns physical and mental wellbeing a pellet with 50% MPP, 20% protein, 20% carbohydrates id ideal. to prevent flystrike you can mix garlic powder into their roughage.

nutrition for pregnant fauns

pregnant fauns need more protein, trace elements, vitimins and carbohydrates. if they dont get enough this could leat to pregnancy toxemia and milk fever. 40% MPP, 30% protein, 20% carbohydrates, 5% oils and 5% trace elements and vitimins (especally copper, calcium and iron)

nutrition for fauns on and off the rack

you cant give off-racked fauns MPP for obvious reasons, but the liquid nutrient should be made of 50% protein, 30% carbohydrates and 20% minerals and vitimins

for fauns that have just been re-racked, their ration should be made of 50% protein, 30% carbohydrates, 10% minerals and 10% MPP, make sure you give them a probiotic drench over it

nutrition for bloodletters

it depents on their use, but they can have the same liquid as you would off-racked fauns, but if theyre being used for blood transfusions they need a lot more iron and copper

counter's eye/sulie comharach (binasolacrimal mirari)

tá suile comharach ná míchuma ó broinn a cuireann na deoirdhucht ar taobh clé (nó dheis, ach níos coitianta clé) ar beirt na suile. glaotar "suile comharach" ar an míchuma seo mar tá seans 1/100 ar fán a bheith berithe mar seo, cialiann é seo ná má tá cheann sa plód, tá timpeall 100 fánas crosantach ann. níl sé marfach, ach is fedir a lán síl a bheidh faoi an suil ar clé de bharr nach bhuill andeoirdhucht nasca leis na cuas. ní tharlíon an míchuma i pór táirgeadh folaíochta, agus tá sé is coitianta i crossantach tairgeadh mar crossantach cótacassach nó muice mincéir.

counter's eye is a congenital deformity where the tear ducts are on the left (sometimes right, but usually left) of both eyes. this is called "counter's eyes" because there's a 1/100 chance of a faun being born like this, meaning that if there's a faun with this there's around a hundred crosses in their cluster. this deformity isn't lethal, but they can get a buildup of discharge under their left eye due to the tear duct not connecting with the sinuses. this disorder doesn't happen in purebred production breeds, but its very common in production hybrids like curlcoat crosses and ballyer blues

chiall a cosaí a bogdha (ag thosú le na cosaí ar thiar)

ag luí agus ag dull a choladh níos mó

freagart níos lú do spreagadh

ag ithe i bhad níos lú (fós ólann siad uisce agus ais dílea)

ag an deiradh, paralisís lán-corpach

tá an am-clár do fánas a bheidh cuirthe as-raca 8 seactain le fánas mar-muice, 6 mhí do caorín bán dearg agus do crossa idir na póranna sinn timpeal 3 1/2 -4 mhí. de gnáth tá grúpa (timpeall an aois chéanna) nó an plód go léar ag teaspaint na sintóm seo, má tá sé ach fán ar leith agus tá siad as-am seic iad le haigh galar mar galar bogha prislín nó easpa de cothig éagan.

chun an fánas a chuir as-raca, ar dhús cathig tú an cheann a gearr dírach síos ag barr a cheann. i fánas mar-muice tá an áit seo an sraith i lar a gruig scúb, i fánas caoríon bán dearg tá an áit seo dírach taobh thiar de a adharc. is é seo an áit a nascann an cerebellum agus an lób occípital le na páirt den inteann eile, tá na páirt den inteann seo slán i lár agus tar éist an próseis as-raca. ag an pointe seo fástear an sac drommach timpeall na páirt seo agus sroiceann siad as an inteann go héasca. tá an féith chuingealach díreach faoi an giall, tá sé seo ionnas a doirteann an foil í an corp go tapadh, ionnas go nach loiteann an foil an feoil.

tar éist iad a gearradh, is fédir an sraith ola a mothú faoi an craiceann ar a drom. tá an craiceann is tanaí san áit a nascann an drom agus peilbheas leis an eireaball, is fedir do méar a brú iseaach sa spás idir an drom agus an feoil. tá an sraith ola an áit a scarann an sac dromach leis na néaróg agus cnámha, deannan sé i bhad níos éasca chun an drom a sraic as an corp.

nuair a fighan do méar isteach, brú isteach níos doimhne agu lúb isteach faoi an droim. ansin sroic síos chun an eireaball a lig saor, anois is fédir gach méar a chuir faoi an drom, an órdóg a luí thar agus brú suas. nuair a shroiceann tú deradh na easanna, sroic an craiceann (an craiceann amháin, ná brú an drom go fól) suas go dtí an blaosc agus ocail an craiceann go homláin. tá brois crearnógach san áit a nascann an blaosc agus an drom, glaotar an "cnámh dorsalhatch" an brois seo. chun na páirt den inteann a figh amach tá ort do órdóg a brú faoi (go cúramach) agus tóg é amach.

anois tá an inteann saor is fedir brú suas chun an drom a scarradh go hoimlán, nuair a fighann tú go dtí an inteann pioc deradh an drom suas le do lámh eile, ansin lúb do lámh faoi an inteann agus tarraing é soar. anois is fedir é a chuir i mála as-raca

sa mállí as-raca fástear iad i leacht cothigh (de gnáth déantear as síoróip arbhair) ar fadh 2 seactain.

Conas leibhéal tocsín sa fuil a léabh ar sampleoir leictreach

how to off-rack a faun safely

you can tell a faun is ready to be off-racked when they:

less mobility in their limbs (usually starting with the hind legs)

lying down and sleeping more

lessened reaction to outside stimuli

eating very little or not eating at all (still drinking water and digestive aid)

then finally, full body parlylisis

the scedule for fauns being off-racked is 8 weeks for swinelikes, 6 months for heatherhorns, and crosses are normally somewhere in between at 3 1/2 - 4 months. normally a group (typically littermates or fauns of similar ages) or an entire cluster will show these syntoms at the same time, if its just one individual or if they're "out of time" check to see if it could be bow neck disease or a nutritional deficency.

to off-rack a faun, first you have to cut them at the crown of their head. in swinelikes this line is where the brush hair parts, on heatherhorns its directly behind the horns. this is the spot where the cerebellum and the occipital lobe connect to the rest of the brain, these two lobes will stay intact during and after the off-racking procses. at this point the spinal sac wouldve grown around these parts so they rip easily from the rest of the brain. the jugular vein is at the bottom of the jaw, this is so the blood drains from their body quickly during this part.

after you cut them, you can feel for the oil layer directly under the skin on either sides of the spine, the skin is thinnest around the area where the spine, pelvis and tail meet, you can press your finger in this area between the spine and the meat to break the skin. the oil layer is what seperates the spinal sac from the meat, nerves and bones, it also makes it a lot easier to seperate the spine from the body.

once your finger gets under the skin, push it in further bending your finger in a "c" shape around the spine. then pull down towards the tail to free that end fully, now you can fit all four of your fingers under the spine, have your thumb over the spine and push up. once you reach the end of the ribs, stop and rip the skin (the skin alone) up to the skull and expose it completely. theres a seam in the skull just over where the spinal cord meets the brain called the "dorsalhatch bone", you can pull this off with your thumb to free the cerebellium.

now that the brain is free, you can go back to taking the rest of the spine, once you get to the end pick up the end of the spine with your other hand, then push your other hand under the brain and pull it free, now you can put the spine in an off-racking bag to regrow. in the off-racking bag they're grown in liquid nutrient (normally corn syrp based) for two weeks.

how to read toxin lelels in the blood with an electric sampler

an electric sampler is a handheld device thats used to test the fauns blood for levels of MMP(microplastics), heavy metals, glucose, and the bloods ph. its important to test both the blood of fauns (individually and as a group) to grade the meat and to check for any signs of disease.

to take a blood sample of an individual faun, after cutting them, hold the flasc under the jugular vein (normally under the tounge) and hold the fauns body by the chest with your shoulder, pointing it downward so the blood flows to the head and into the flasc until its full (20 ml). then insert it into the sampler

how to read the screen: the letters on the side of the screen stand for (from top to bottom) microplastics, heavy metals, ph and glucose. the colored lines beside each one show the level of the substance, 1 is the lowest and 4 is the highest. the normal range for each level is:

MMP- 1 (any more and the meat is illegal to sell, also a syntom of spillout)

HM- 1 (just like a high MMP level its also illegal to sell, also a syntom of a lack of microrgansisms in the digestive tract)

ACID(ph)- 2 (if the level is any different the meat is allowed to be sold, but a different level either higher or lower should be investigated, lower levels could mean poor oxygen intake and higher could be a whole list of conditions)

GLUC(glucose)- 2 (again, legal to sell regardless but a different level could mean an issue with the pancreas)

layout of an intensive faun farming unit/ re-racking care

the re-rack crates,(two rows of pens in between the off-racking shelves and the main rack), newly re-racked fauns spend their first few days in these pens to be fed a probiotic/re-rack ration until they're strong enough to all be put back on the main rack.

the pens must be kept as a single row of two on each side to ensure proper air circulation and prevent the spread of disease.

there should only be a maximum of 10 fauns in each pen, this is to prevent the spread of disease, and make it easier to keep track of how they're doing/how much they're eating.

after being off-racked the hoof wall is extremely pliable and cannot hold weight until it dries after 10 hours, because of this the bedding should ideally be something soft like straw or wood shavings to ease the pressure.

a fully automated system of food, water and digestive aid is industry standard(the less human handling the better), but each pen of fauns should be looked over every 6 hours.

if all goes well the fauns should be moved to the main rack after 3 days. any longer and there's a risk of physiological harm or aggression towards other fauns and handlers

i hate warrior cats especially the number 3
