Basilisk
A basilisk on its way to work.

The basilisk is a snake/chicken hybrid that is incredibly deadly. It premiered in episode 4, Basilisks a.k.a. Any Time A Whistle Takes A Piss.

Description

The basilisk, often called "baskilisk," though commonly believed to be large due to the Harry Potter books and movies, is actually very small, described to be only twelve fingers (Leonardo DaVinci's fingers to be specific) in length. It is comparable to a weasel in size, and actually is weak to the smell of a weasel, specifically its urine. The odor of the weasel's piss is allegedly so deadly it kills the weasel too, which just doesn't make sense...

Not to be confused with a Cockatrice, they are considerably close in description and ability. To be discussed further in a later episode.

A basilisk is created when a toad or a snake lays an egg, but a chicken hatches it. Other account claim "this animal is born from an egg laid by an old cock just before his death a clear night and full moon exactly at midnight." Which probably never happens.

Several recipes include Basilisk blood, including Spanish Gold. Powdered Basilisk blood really enhances mac n' cheese as well.
