seeing those lovely macro’s, is everyone aware you can copy and paste straight into wow from any text, saves a lot of time and most people don’t seem to realise you can do it.

WTB edit button.

For the critter bites part
/target [harm,nodead] Fjord Turkey
/use Critter Bites

This will target only turkeys that a) can have a damaging abilities affect them, and b) are alive.
That way, you don’t have to worry about critter bites being sent to turkeys you already control.

I hope you don’t mind if I elaborate on your macro

#showtooltip
/target [nodead] Fjord Turkey
/cast Ice Lance (insert your favorite instant cast spell or ability here)

Just spam it to death. It should just target the next living turkey, and ignore the dead ones.

self correction… follow the north ridge towards shadowvault for the penguins

Personally I had a flash of inspiration just before a Grobbulus pull in 25 man Naxxramas; noticed that there were a bunch of rats and maggots, and I had a stack of Critter Bites in my bag, so I thought “why not?” and did it. I think the other raid members were quite amused. XD

Another fast way to do this is while your in Icecrown grinding daily’s head north along the ridge that leads to Stormpeaks. You will find huge flocks of penguins that work just as well and may save you some travel time.

It’s probably worth mentioning that going after the turkeys and their subsequent backlash is probably a nod toward the Zelda series, in which there are chickens scattered across the world. Repeatedly beating these up will eventually launch a debilitating attack by fowl spawning off-screen and swooping down on you, which will last until death, or zoning.

Heh, I did the Friend or Fowl one there as well and it was worth a good laugh when they all rush you at the end. I happened to do the Critter Gitter one on the back cliffs of Icecrown where there are tons of penguins just sittin around in groups of 10+ just waiting to be tamed. Also heard of people going to Moonglade for all the different critters there but your suggestion would of course save time and get two turkeys with one stone
