[[Image:Snotling.jpg|thumb|rightleft|120px|Typical Snotling<sup>2</sup>]]{{OrkoidSpecies}}
The '''Snotlings''' (sometimes called ''Snots'') are an [[Orkoid physiology|Orkoid]] species. They are tiny beings that appear as small [[Gretchin]], and being so, occupy what is perhaps the lowest rung of Ork society. While the Gretchin serve as servants and other secondary positions in Ork society, Snotlings will serve sometimes as "pets," but more often they serve in Orkish agricultural and animal husbandry roles due to their affinity with the fungus and [[squig]]s that appear in Ork settlements. Supervised and trained by [[Runtherd]]s, Snotlings will cultivate the fungus to provide Orks with food, drink, and medicine. Snotlings' affinity with squigs usually ensures that only a few dozen Snotlings are eaten by their "livestock" on any given day.<sup>1a</sup>
