What would you do if you found a random Tyranid Hormagaunt or Termagant?
Stand very still and hope it goes away
Shit your pants
Kill the Xeno filth in the name of the Emprah!
Wonder who crossed a dinosaur and cockroach
Casually leave to return to your Imperial Cruiser in orbit to begin the exterminatus
Krump it in da 'ead and then krack it open ta get to da tasty bitz inside
Scream and faint
Be the good 41st millennium hippy you are you decide to give it a hug
After it hugged you back by stabbing the ever living feth out of your dumb hippy ass you decide to travel to the hive mind to return it to its home
Burn it with fire!
Keep it as a pet and name it lil' rip rip and have him follow you on your adventures
Run like hell because you know where there is one there will always be more.
Put on your Tyranid costume you always keep handy and try and learn its language
Fix bayonets!

Not with termagants. But hormagaunts, yes - they're the only self-reproducing tyranid species short of a norn queen.

Keep it, smuggle it to inhabited worlds, help the swarm spread. I find the little buggers cute and the hive-mind is certainly smart enough to not kill such a useful rescource / agent. Probably end up getting adsorbed and reconstructed as a Tervigon or something at some point (The hive mind has been shown to posses the ability to transfer souls to new bodies, sometimes multiple).

I will become one of them. Learn its customs, it's language and it's way of life. I will eventually bridge the gap between mankind and nidkind and over the course of a few years I will enact a breeding program spear headed by me. We will take some of their women and they will take some of ours. We will then interbreed so that our cultures merge and become one.

I will name my nidchild Clackity Howell and we will have a normal life. I will respect his mothers wishes when it comes to their way of life and she will respect mine. Our sun will be happy.

Then school begins and he comes home upset after the normal Tyranids and Humans pick on him relentlessly. My son is normal goddammit and I will raise him to be normal. I speak to principle but he too hates the hybrid. After a few months I decide to take him to a hybrid only school across country. I take my nid wife and we start a new in a community like us.

For a while things are great. He is with others like him. He feels like the normal kid he is. But then comes the time for him to become a man and make his way in life. All the businesses around these parts are run and owned by non hybrids. Getting him a job will prove difficult.

I decide to quit my job and start a business. We decide to make a business that caters to hybrid needs. The local hybrids for the first time have proper fitting clothes and actually have items built to function for their form. Word spreads and more and more hybrids come to our town. As the non hybrids leave we become our own little community surrounded by miles of others. The government does not pour funds into our area so our schools worsen and infrastructure collapses.

To try turn hybrids away from a life of violence we initiate peaceful protests to raise awareness. My son leads this movement and regularly marches in non hybrid territories. He once came home missing a limb which we quickly had to grow back for him.

Progress was being made until there was a split in the movement. A group of hybrids came in a time machine and spoke of a world where hybrids rule over non hybrids. One group of hybrids decided that violence would quicken the process. It became clear that the missing astronauts knew these hybrids. The community feared for themselves when they heard the future will be one under hybrid domination.

And thus started the hybrid wars.

During this conflict hybrids rose over the non hybrids and the world was in ruins. My son was forced to imprison me with the rest of the non hybrids as per law and I did not see him or my nidwife again. All I wanted was to bring our cultures together and I technically did.

Leave it on the sprue. If it already off the sprue, I'll leave it in pieces. If it has already been assembled, I will include it in my spawning pool (aka bucket of gaunts).

Greebo had spent an irritating two minutes in that box. Technically, a cat locked in a box may be alive or it may be dead. You never know until you look. In fact, the mere act of opening the box will determine the state of the cat, although in this case there were three determinate states the cat could be in: these being Alive, Dead, and Bloody Furious.

You see good sir Lil' Rip Rip can follow you any where on your adventures even assist you if need be, whether you be a, mighty Space Marine or even a lowly Grot, Lil Rip Rip is a great comrade to have to aid you in your endeavores, even if you're off in some other universe you can be sure Lil' Rip Rip will be there to help you!

Also this is the image I stumbled upon when looking for info on tabletop Tyranids that gave me the idea of Lil Rip Rip.

Force feed the little gakker Amasec and go out on the town looking for chicks. Now that is a wingman.

Please note, for those of you who play Chaos Daemons as a faction the term "Daemon" is potentially offensive. Instead, please play codex "Chaos: Mortally Challenged". Thank you.
