Ur LGBT list made me realize Skyclan probably suffers a lot from spays/neuters. Does Skyclan seek out more honorsirings as a result?
They do! They also, notably, don't have the Queen’s Rights.
They follow a code that diverged before Ripplestar's rebellion! One that is modified heavily, and took SUGGESTIONS from Firestar and Brokenstar. They never had a Darkstar's Commandment type situation to force some sort of exception into their laws.
So, Echosong was very open about being Hawkwing's biomom. She didn't raise him, but there was no need for secrecy.
They also don't have the same flavor of xenophobia that Forest Four do. It's different. When Sharpclaw (villain in this au) started railing about Daylight Warriors, blood really had nothing to do with it. It's about loyalty, having a paw in two worlds, willingness to give everything to the SkyClan Way Of Life.
Defining SkyClan as essentially being the opposite of soft reliance life. "Humans are a danger to us and we must reject any cat who would take their side, the time of shame is over, there is now SkyClan and Kittypets."
But, digressing, adoptions are extremely common in SkyClan. Honor sirings are not kept secret. This is both good and bad-- they also don't have the same taboo about gossip, single parents are not as accepted as they are by the Forest Four.
