Ky smiled a little. "Couldn't you farm them? Compost and such?"

"Could do." He nodded. "Didn't say I couldn't get worms. Just that it was hard."

"Of course," Ky inclined her head. "Sammie seems perfectly healthy and happy."

"They just breed themselves unless we have some sort of pairing in mind." He shrugged. "Ravens are ravens."

"... so they're terribly inbred by now?" Ky concluded.

Ky nodded. Still seemed like there'd be a lot of inbreeding going on if they let them breed themselves. But she wasn't going to argue. "How do you train them once they hatch?"

He nodded. "That would be fine, I'm sure." He headed for the third floor. "You're interested in caring for ravens, I take it?"

“I’m fascinated by them. They seem like very intelligent creatures.”

"They are indeed." He nodded. "You saw Kirri talking; quite a few of them can do that! Makes for interesting social dynamics."

“I bet!” She hesitated. “Do they speak to each other? Or just mirror humans?”
