Initially, they would have to hide in the tall flora of the area, including the [[Speckled Berry Plant|speckled berry plant]], due to their carapace heat sinks sticking out of the substrate, but this problem was finally fixed by changing the overall shape of these 'spines', to make them appear more like
Line 71 ⟶ 38:
Young are born during the cooler months, and are laid in the ground while the female sauceback remains burrowed during the day. At this time, she will not eat until the night, when she will unburrow herself, but cover her eggs back up. She will remain close to the egg location until they hatch. Falsequill saucebacks begin life as strange, subterranean "larvae", who do not eat and instead live off of a protein sac attached to them. Once matured enough to hunt for prey, they will begin to hunt nocturnally until large enough to fool creatures into thinking they are a patch of quillblades. To aid in breathing while underground, a couple of their microlungs have been encased in carapace, which possess tubes leading up to the surface in the shape of quillblade leaves.
