At first glance the colors made me think of the boxart for NES 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles'.

This raises another question then; how do feathers and hair grow since they're not living? Obviously they carry DNA.. so I'm assuming at some point during their growth they die off and carry the genetic sequence or something?

Fascinating.. I'd say you went above and beyond answering this one. The bit about Lexus is an interesting detail.

I really appreciate the thorough answer; reddit is awesome for these sort of questions and redditors such as yourself who take the time to teach are a gift.

Thank you!
