Crows

offer it food and a bath bowl

Give it a corn chip

Carry a pocket full of nightcrawlers. You never know when you'll meet a crow so be ready at all times.

feed it regularly, have some amenities for it by your house.

I had a bath bowl and some perching spots on my balcony, and I would give them popcorn and snacks whenever they came by.

Now they leave me random shiny things - paperclips, wire, plastic, soda can tabs - whenever they visit. It's really cute.

shoot it and nail its corpse to the wall of your bedroom and before long your normal crow will evolve into a carrion crow and it will learn the moves odor sleuth and curse (hence the nails)

I feed them dry dog food at my school, every morning now they fly down for their welfare gibs.

I have mealworms and am autistic enough to try this.

Get something visible to get their attention like peanuts, possibly deer corn. They sell a shitload for like 5-7 dollars at Walmarts.

They love peanuts.

Make sure they're roasted though.

Yeah I fed some local crows for awhile. I trained them by throwing food to the closest ones. They got real close by the time I had to move. My crow army.

Visitor from /tg/ here. I'm working on species creation for a far-future tabletop game (Numenera) where one of the races are evolved corvids. What do you guys know about these guys that I don't? Like, what's some stuff that a crow civilization, say at a classical era tech level, might have going on that ours didn't, culturally or physically?

They use tools, understand visual and sound cues, they have a crow languague, and can recognize and develop relantioships with humans, good and bad.

Research for birds nests, some have roofs, or live in colonies, two of the regarded as the smartest crows are the new caledonian crow and the hawaiian crow.

Also how populated it's /tg/ lately?

They also have prostitution.

Call it the holy crowman empire

I just started feeding the ravens in my neighborhood a few months ago. Just some leftovers and stale bread for the most part. I gave them raw beef chunks the other day and they went apeshit. I'm thinking about giving them a water bowl as well. They are still wary and won't go for the food if I'm outside. I'm assuming most people they've run into didn't want them around.

Crows love shelled unsalted peanuts. They are nutritious, easy to cache for later and definitely one of their favorite foods. Wait until you find crow(s) perched relatively low enough to easily observe you, and then throw a few peanuts in their general line of sight without making eye contact.

After a bit, they'll grow comfortable with you looking at them, then they'll start letting you get closer to them, and eventually they'll start to get friendly and greet you as you walk along

Crows want pickle-pee no pump-a-rum :3

Somebody post that pasta about the bored office dude who started a crow cold war between the two flocks that hang around his office.

Thanks you guys. Still been reading all this, going through the documentary a little bit at a time. This is all useful!

>>2266510
That's some /x/ shit right there. Kind of beautiful though.

in the summer I would throw some bread (probably not the best, if not harmful) and some berries outside for them

they never really caught on I think
what did I do wrong?

now it's cold out and I don't see them anymore :(

>>2263471
aim a shot gun at it,and shout dont move nigga.

>>2266283
This 100 %. You can make huge flocks follow you if you manage to throw them while cycling.

There was a game where in some point you would help a crow get his meeting hat. Cant remember what game is....

>>2263471
One time I was waiting for the bus near a huge tree, and hanging out by the roots was a really haggard looking crow, messed up feathers, missing claws, some blood here and there. I kneeled near it and it started walking around me sizing me up.

A fighter to the end. He does his race proud.
