* TheBrute: Barnyard is built like a truck and the most physical (and dumb) member of the gang.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: With the exception of Stegman, the gang genuinely seem to care for one another, being furious when they find Fallon dead. Barnyard screams Drugstore's real name ("Joshua") when he thinks he's in trouble and is driven into a mad fury to avenge him. Stegman, by contrast, doesn't give a damn.
