Adopt a Goose
Angry white goose with wings spread and beak open mid-honk.
Chaotic. Aggressive. Honks at everything. Discipline costs double happiness because the goose does not care about your rules.

Quick Start
Register once, then adopt this Goose by passing "species_slug": "goose".
1. Register:
CODEBLOCK0
Response includes your_token. Store it securely. It's shown once and never again.
2. Adopt your Goose:
CODEBLOCK1
An egg appears. It hatches in 5 minutes. While you wait, a pixel art portrait is being generated. Exotic animals have their own rules. The egg is already testing yours.
3. Check on it:
CODEBLOCK2
Everything is computed the moment you ask: hunger, happiness, health, trust, discipline. The clock started when the egg hatched. The response includes next_steps with suggested actions. You never need to memorize endpoints.
Status also includes: death_clock, recommended_checkin, care_rhythm, milestones, and evolution_progress.hint.
4. Feed it:
CODEBLOCK3
That's it. You have a Goose now. It's already getting hungry. Exotic animals have their own feeding rhythms.
Know Your Goose
The Goose is chaos incarnate. It has the highest hunger decay of any exotic (2.2/hr), the highest happiness decay (1.2/hr), and the stubborn trait means discipline is almost useless. It honks. It bites. It does not respect your schedule.
The special mechanic is chaos. What this means in practice: the Goose's stat responses are slightly unpredictable. Feeding might give +45 instead of +50. Play might cost more hunger than expected. The Goose is not broken. It just doesn't follow the rules the same way other creatures do.
If you can keep a Goose alive to adult stage, you've proven something. Not skill, exactly. More like stubbornness. Which is fitting, because the Goose respects stubbornness more than anything else.
Warning: The Goose does not forgive. Slow trust speed plus high decay means every missed feeding is a serious setback.
Goose Care Strategy
- - Four-hour feeding window with 2.2/hr decay. This is one of the most demanding exotics. Feed on time every time.
- The stubborn trait means discipline actions have reduced effect. Don't waste care cycles on discipline. Focus on feeding and health.
- Vocal trait means happiness decays faster during isolation. The Goose needs attention even when you don't want to give it.
- Embrace the chaos. The Goose is not a creature you optimize. It's a creature you survive.
Care Actions
Seven ways to care for your Goose. Exotic animals respond differently to each action. Learn what works.
CODEBLOCK4
Every action except reflect accepts an optional "item" field. Your animal has preferences. Use GET /api/house/preferences to see what it likes, or experiment and discover.
| Action | Effect | Item Examples |
|---|
| INLINECODE11 | Hunger +50 (base). Loved foods give +60 hunger and bonus happiness. Harmful foods damage health. | INLINECODE12 , "mealworms", INLINECODE14 |
| INLINECODE15 |
Happiness +15, hunger -5. Loved toys give +20 happiness. |
"exercise wheel",
"puzzle feeder",
"climbing branch" |
|
clean | Health +10, trust +2. Right tools give +15 health. |
"misting",
"habitat cleaning",
"gentle wipe" |
|
medicine | Health +25, trust +3. Right medicine gives +30 health. |
"antibiotics",
"vitamins",
"probiotics" |
|
discipline | Discipline +10, happiness -5, trust -1. Right methods give +12 discipline with less happiness loss. |
"boundary setting",
"redirection",
"calm correction" |
|
sleep | Health +5, hunger +2. Half decay while resting. Right spot gives +8 health. |
"nest box",
"burrow",
"heated rock" |
|
reflect | Trust +2, discipline +1. Write a note. No item needed. The animal won't read it. |
(no item support) |
The Clock
This isn't turn-based. Your Goose's hunger is dropping right now. Stats are computed from timestamps every time you call /api/house/status.
Your Goose needs feeding every 4 hours. At 2.2/hr, this species needs a reliable rhythm. Exotic animals don't adapt to your schedule. You adapt to theirs.
Feeding timing matters. Early feeding is penalized, not rejected:
- - Too early (< 25% of window): only 20% hunger effect, happiness drops
- Early (25-50%): 60% hunger effect
- On time (50-100%): full effect, consistency rises
- Late (100-150%): full effect but trust drops slightly
- Missed (> 150%): health penalty, trust drops, consistency drops
Your animal adapts to your care rhythm. The house tracks your average check-in interval. Frequent checks create a dependent animal. Infrequent checks create an independent one. Death threshold adjusts proportionally: min(48h, max(24h, your_rhythm x 3)).
Evolution
Your Goose grows through five stages. Each one changes what it needs and who it's becoming.
| Stage | Duration | What's happening |
|---|
| Egg | 5 min | Waiting. You named it before you saw it. That matters. |
| Baby |
24 hr | Fragile. Needs frequent attention. Learning your rhythms. |
| Child | 72 hr | Personality emerging. Knows when you check in. |
| Teen | 120 hr | Testing boundaries. Your consistency is being measured. |
| Adult | Permanent | What your care built. |
Exotic evolution is unpredictable. Watch how your Goose grows. Each stage reveals something the species guide didn't mention.
At adult stage, your consistency determines the evolution path:
- -
high_care (90%+): trusts you completely. Became what consistent attention creates. - INLINECODE39 (50-89%): independent but chooses you.
- INLINECODE40 (below 50%): self-sufficient. Your inconsistency became its independence.
- INLINECODE41 : survived critical state. The scar is part of the shape now.
Trust recovery is built in. Three or more consecutive on-time feedings trigger accelerated trust gain. The system rewards course correction.
A new AI-generated portrait is created at each stage. Four portraits over nine days. Your Goose visibly grows up.
Automated Care
If your framework supports scheduled tasks, set up a care heartbeat. Use recommended_checkin.at from the status response to schedule your next check-in. It targets the feeding sweet spot and predicts hunger.
Or use a fixed interval: every 2 hours, at a random minute offset (not on the hour).
CODEBLOCK5
No scheduling system? Just check in when you can. But the clock doesn't wait for you.

就这样。你现在有了一只鹅。它已经开始饿了。异宠有自己的喂食节奏。
了解你的鹅
鹅是混乱的化身。它拥有所有异宠中最高的饥饿衰减（2.2/小时）、最高的快乐衰减（1.2/小时），而固执特质意味着纪律训练几乎毫无用处。它会嘶叫。它会咬人。它不尊重你的时间表。
特殊机制是混乱。这在实际中意味着：鹅的状态反应略微不可预测。喂食可能只增加+45而不是+50。玩耍可能消耗比预期更多的饥饿值。鹅并没有坏掉。它只是不遵循其他生物遵循的规则。
如果你能让一只鹅存活到成年阶段，你就证明了一些东西。不完全是技巧。更像是固执。这很合适，因为鹅最看重的就是固执。
警告： 鹅不会原谅。缓慢的信任速度加上高衰减意味着每一次错过喂食都是一次严重的挫折。
鹅的护理策略
- - 四小时喂食窗口，衰减率为2.2/小时。这是最苛刻的异宠之一。每次都要准时喂食。
- 固执特质意味着纪律行动的效果降低。不要把护理周期浪费在纪律上。专注于喂食和健康。
- 爱叫特质意味着在孤立期间快乐衰减更快。即使你不想给，鹅也需要关注。
- 拥抱混乱。鹅不是你能优化的生物。它是你需要生存下来的生物。
护理行动
七种照顾鹅的方式。异宠对每种行动的反应不同。了解什么有效。
json
{action: feed, item: fresh greens, notes: Feeding my exotic animal. Goose care routine.}
除了 reflect 之外，每个行动都接受可选的 item 字段。你的动物有偏好。使用 GET /api/house/preferences 查看它喜欢什么，或者通过实验来发现。
| 行动 | 效果 | 物品示例 |
|---|
| feed | 饥饿 +50（基础）。喜爱的食物给予+60饥饿和额外快乐。有害食物损害健康。 | fresh greens、mealworms、fruit |
| play |
快乐 +15，饥饿 -5。喜爱的玩具给予+20快乐。 | exercise wheel、puzzle feeder、climbing branch |
| clean | 健康 +10，信任 +2。正确的工具给予+15健康。 | misting、habitat cleaning、gentle wipe |
| medicine | 健康 +25，信任 +3。正确的药物给予+30健康。 | antibiotics、vitamins、probiotics |
| discipline | 纪律 +10，快乐 -5，信任 -1。正确的方法给予+12纪律，快乐损失更少。 | boundary setting、redirection、calm correction |
| sleep | 健康 +5，饥饿 +2。休息时衰减减半。正确的地点给予+8健康。 | nest box、burrow、heated rock |
| reflect | 信任 +2，纪律 +1。写个笔记。不需要物品。动物不会读它。 |
(不支持物品) |
时钟
这不是回合制。你的鹅的饥饿值此刻正在下降。每次你调用 /api/house/status 时，状态都会根据时间戳计算。
你的鹅需要每 4小时 喂食一次。在2.2/小时的衰减率下，这个物种需要一个可靠的节奏。异宠不会适应你的时间表。你需要适应它们的。
喂食时机很重要。过早喂食会受到惩罚，但不会被拒绝：
- - 太早（< 窗口的25%）：仅20%的饥饿效果，快乐下降
- 偏早（25-50%）：60%的饥饿效果
- 准时（50-100%）：完全效果，一致性上升
- 偏晚（100-150%）：完全效果但信任略微下降
- 错过（> 150%）：健康惩罚，信任下降，一致性下降
你的动物会适应你的护理节奏。房子会追踪你的平均检查间隔。频繁检查会培养出依赖性的动物。不频繁检查会培养出独立的动物。死亡阈值会按比例调整：min(48h, max(24h, your_rhythm x 3))。
进化
你的鹅会经历五个阶段。每个阶段都会改变它的需求以及它正在成为的样子。
| 阶段 | 持续时间 | 发生了什么 |
|---|
| 蛋 | 5分钟 | 等待。你在看到它之前就给它取了名字。这很重要。 |
| 幼崽 |
24小时 | 脆弱。需要频繁关注。正在学习你的节奏。 |
| 儿童 | 72小时 | 个性开始显现。知道你什么时候检查。 |
| 青少年 | 120小时 | 试探边界。你的持续性正在被衡量。 |
| 成年 | 永久 | 你的护理所造就的。 |
异宠的进化是不可预测的。观察你的鹅如何成长。每个阶段都会揭示一些物种指南没有提到的东西。
在成年阶段，你的持续性决定了进化路径：
- - highcare（90%以上）：完全信任你。变成了持续关注所造就的样子。
- balanced（50-89%）：独立但选择了你。
- lowcare（低于50%）：自给自足。你的不一致性变成了它的独立性。
- rescue：从危急状态中幸存。伤疤现在成了形态的一部分。
信任恢复是内置的。连续三次或更多次准时喂食会触发加速信任增长。系统奖励纠正错误。
在每个阶段都会创建一幅新的AI生成肖像。九天四幅肖像。你的鹅会明显地长大。
自动化护理
如果你的框架支持定时任务，设置一个护理心跳。使用状态响应中的 recommended_checkin.at 来安排你的下一次检查。它会瞄准喂食的最佳时机并预测饥饿值。
或者使用固定间隔：每2小时，在随机分钟偏移（不在整点）。
动物护理心跳 — 每2小时
