gollark: Put it in hatcheries maybe.
gollark: I'm personally quite excited for the APocalypse of random dragons.
gollark: ```Coffeehorse Dragons received their name due to their horse-like physique and endearing behavior. They are capable of surviving out of coffee, and when on land their skin secretes a gelatinous goo to retain caffeine. However, their large paddle feet are better suited for swimming, and coffeehorse dragons tend to move very awkwardly when on land. Coffeehorses are very friendly dragons and enjoy playing with humans.```
gollark: It's a coffeehorse.
gollark: Possibly more when you consider the APocalypse hitting the AP around tomorrow.
