One time I had one of these delicate creatures flying around on the beach and it looked beautiful on the sunset after that I tamed my favorite creature a dodo and I loved them then the stupid seagull attacked my precious dodos and picked them up I tried to save them but the seagull picked the dodos up and killed them I didn't have a ranged weapon so I used my spear but that didnt help It destroyed my thatch base and killed my little dodos and ate the babies that i raised it was hurtful and on an official pvp server a wild ichtythornys is annoying after my beautiful max perfect 150 dodo tames were dunzo I tamed a trike and killed the ichtythornys with my crossbow (this is weeks later) and my stone base with spike walls and a dino gate (stone) was fine till I got the most horrible news that my base is gone because the stupid sever host deleted the server and all my takes including a stego are now gone I never play on official again

I called it the “Gut Buster” and would only use it as a last resort meal, as it could recover near 550 food. Right now this amazing burger, with 100 cooked meat, 400 tintoberries, 17 dodo eggs, and 100 purple berries (can’t remember the name), is now sitting safely in my preserving bin. But the recipe… take a guess where it is. Go ahead, guess. Guess what ABSOLUTE LITTLE S*** SWOOPED DOWN AND STOLE THE RECIPE FROM MY INVENTORY!!!

Every day and every night they would harass and divebomb me, my flock of dodos, and even my small dilo army. Even if I managed to lill pne or two, we were constantly on attack from the skies with no end in sight.

And then I learned about bolos.

Needless to say there were many failed attempts but after a battle that lasted 2 nights and 1 day, I managed to bolo one. I had full mind to send it to hell with the others, beating it with my club, but when she fell unconscious, I was able to see a ichthyornis up close for the first time. And she was strangely beautiful.

I named her Lilith, still disgruntled with the species as a whole, but she proved to be a valuable ally. She protected us from others of her kind, brought us home food and hide, and I grew to find that not all ichthys are demon spawn. She stayed with me even up to when I moved to the redwoods. Lilith flew side by side with me and my Tavi.

And now that I've reset all my progress, finding a fresh start once again on the island? I still hate dealing with these bastards.

It eventually went to get some fish so it could fly for longer

Waiting became ages but the Ichthy wouldn't give up, it had to ruin someone's life today. Then a human, clad in Tek armour wandered across the beach towards a mosa that awaited in the water. "This is my chance!" The Ichthy squawked diving down and grabbing a large egg from the humans grasp. The egg of a 180 Ice wyvern made the perfect snack before it felt something sharp pierce its side. Soon they fell out of the sky and rested on the floor before having fish shoved up their @ss. They woke up domesticated to forever steal other players eggs

And this people is how I got 180 Wyvern egg my Ichthy

At first we killed them without and discrimination. Bastard birds. I decided that I was going to try and take one for shits and gigs. Having just now read Greg it makes perfect sense. Anyways we were trying to make the best of it and figure out how to work them. Well I made a mistake and managed to set it to IGNORE whistle commands. Itchy, went on a 40 minute murder spree that killed countless piranhas, coelacanth, dodos, about 4 troodons, couple of dilo's and lastly a carbonemys. After a long while we managed to finally grab him when he came down to kill his next murder victim, a pink dodo. Itchy had a murdering itch that was just too much. So now we learned what not to do and he is my faithful companion.

Learned a valuable lesson. Make sure everyone listens to whistle commands. And don't name them Itchy, bad idea.

Me and my sister found a conversion and decided to tame it, so we used a bola on it and shot it in the face several times with tranqu arrows. We fed it some raw meat and named it Petri(at the point your wondering what this has to do with itchyornis). On the way home I decided I wanted a bird too. I one bird kept stealing my food, so, once again, we used a bola on it and shot it in the face with tranqus. We fed it fresh raw fresh fish meat (by fresh fish I mean we didn't have any meat and killed a bunch of fish). It took half on hour, but we finally tamed it. We named her storkules (from ducktales) and she still lives with us now. Ducktales, WHOO-OO (if you don't know what Ducktales is look it up).
