what does a baby chimera look like

i wonder if this be cool minion but also what would a baby chimera look like

If you want to be technical then Chimeras arent born, they are manufactured, so from "birth" they look exactly as we see them. However there is no reason why we couldn't get a "baby" chimera as a runt or failed project.

This... actually isn't true. Chimeras aren't infertile and that is why they also haven't been hunted to extinction. Well, that and they're extremely dangerous creatures. Chimeras have a breeding population, not just in Azys Lla, but across Eorzea. If I had to take a guess, baby chimera (chimera cubs?) look like lion cubs, but with their extra features scaled proportionately.

I wouldn't be so sure. A process like that doesn't exactly leave the beast in good shape. And the many Chimera across Eorzea could just be from all the ones that were made, not just a new species that is reproducing.

After doing some digging, we might both be right, however I still firmly hold the belief that a constructed creature would not be able to breed. The game might (sources are thin and some may have been retconned) suggest that the eorzea chimeras (relic and cutters cry etc.) are completely unrelated to the allagan chimeras despite sharing the same model. If, and only if, they were natural, then they will be able to breed, however if they are related to the allagans, then my original post stands true.

EDIT: more digging - the Gorgimera states that the creature was made by a "madman", and some theories float around that the allagans knowledge of creating chimeras has passed down through the ages, causing others to make monsterous beings, much like void summoning. This would give an explantion to the eorzea chimeras being unrelated
