No, it’s not a realistic sex doll! Dreamchick is the latest must-have gadget in the Japanese robotic pet movement. It’s a cute, little, lifelike robotic baby chick made by Segatoys that won’t grow into an ugly chicken and crap all over your house. Dreamchick has sensors so it “knows” when it is being held or pet and responds with wing flapping or chirping. In short, this is an irresistible improvement on the real thing. You’ll never have to give it away to a farm or bury it in the backyard under the cover of moonlight.
 In addition to wing flapping, the Dreamchick chirps and cheeps in response to being petted. This is a salient feature of Japanese robotic toys and adds much to their appeal. Interactivity makes the "pet" owner feel they are dealing with another creature instead of an appliance. This feature has been used to create very effective therapy pets like Paro, the robotic baby seal.
