A guide for the quest given by Worzel Scrumpy. He lost his chickens and wants you to find them.
Quest: Missing Chickens
You start the quest by interacting with Worzel Scrumpy. He will tell you he lost his 3 chickens and need help to find them. He says they can be found in “The Vale”, which is basically 1/4 of the map.
If you want, you can interact with the townsfolk until someone tells you: “Lost chickens, you say? I heard some clucking when I was in the woods recently. Funny-sounding cuckoos I thought!”.
You can also just head to Cuckoo Wood, and get them without the hassle of prompting the message.
Location of the 3 chickens
Worzel Scrumpy’s chickens can be located at the bottom of the map in Cuckoo Wood, there is a little alcove to left, where they are hiding.
The specific location is marked on the map below.
Returning the chickens to Worzel
Get all 3 chickens to follow you. Then take them to Tasty Acres, where Worzel Scrumpy is located. You can use any transport method you prefer, as the chickens follow you as your pet would.
When you arrive at Tasty Acre, just lead the chickens to the coop, right next to the farmhouse. Shown on picture below:
When “close” to the coop the chickens will automatically unfollow you, and you can go to Worzel Scrumpy and complete your quest.
Reward: 30 Brass, 19 FP.
Because you are a master chicken herder, Worzel asks you to go check the noticeboard in Poppyhill, to continue your quest.
Missing chickens in Poppyhill
When in Poppyhill, go check the noticeboard. It will have a notice with missing chickens.
Find Rose Thorn, who can be found at her home in Homesteads or strolling around in Poppyhill. When found ask her about the missing chickens.
Location of the 3 chickens from Poppyhill
Just like last time, you can go interact with the townfolk of Poppyhill to get a tip on the chicken’s location.
I got the tip from Roger Readily, but you’ll properly be able to get it from any named townfolk who you are on friendly terms with.
Well, the message is: “Lost chickens, you say? I heard some clucking when I had a romantic walk recently.”
Just like last time, you don’t have to prompt this message to find the chickens. Just head to Loverwood where they are hiding.
When in Loverwood head to the bottom right corner of the map, there you’ll find another hidden alcove where the 3 chickens are hiding.
Exact location is shown below:
Returning the chickens to Rose Thorn
Get all 3 chickens to follow you. Then take them to Homesteads, where Rose Thorn is located. You can use any transport method you prefer, as the chickens follow you as your pet would.
When you arrive at Homesteads, just lead the chickens to the coop, right next to the farmhouse. Shown in the picture below:
When “close” to the coop the chickens will automatically unfollow you, and you can go to Rose Thorn and complete this part of the quest.
Reward: 40 Brass, 30 FP.
Now Rose Thorn is asking you to go check the noticeboard in Mellowbrooks, because they have problems with missing chickens too!
Missing chickens in Mellowbrooks
When arriving at the noticeboard in Mellowbrooks you’ll see that Frogg the Hermit is missing some of his chickens too.
If he is not strolling about in Mellowbrooks he can be found at Outlane. Ask him about his missing chickens.
