If you’re looking to get your hand on an elusive Golden Chicken in Fortnite, here’s what you need to know about the creature.

Where to find the Golden Chickens in Fortnite

You can find Golden Chickens in the grassy or farmland areas of the Fortnite map, such as Reckless Railways, Restored Reels, Fencing Fields, and Pleasant Piazza.

However, you’ll have the best luck searching in the new Greek-themed POIs such as Mount Olympus and The Underworld.

What does the Golden Chicken do

As the name implies, Golden Chickens will drop gold bars for those who find them.

Simply shoot or defeat them with your Pickaxe, and they’ll drop bars for players to use on typical items such as Vending Machines, NPC interactions, and more.

Or you can take a rather peaceful route and chase the chicken as it drops gold bars along its path. The choice is yours.
