- General behavior: Spink live in underground colonies of up to 50 individuals. Despite being avians, these creatures are most similar to the real world naked mole rat, and have workers and breeders. They can have up to four queens/king pairs, which serve as breeders, while most of the others are workers. Queens can control whether a clutch will be workers or breeders. The Spinks only surface at night. A few times a year, potential king and queens will surface. When they surface, the male will sing to try to attract females. Once they mate, the pair will go start their own colonies. Workers do the digging and search out for food. They are also often hunted by Harenar Foxes.
Spinks are a common creature on Vanquo which are often preyed on by wild Harenar Foxes. They are also a common dish on the world, tasting like quail, but are difficult to keep do to their borrowing.
