How to Get the Ghost Hen
What this page helps you decide: which egg to hatch for the Ghost Hen, and how many hatches to budget before it shows up
The Ghost Hen is a Mythic chicken, tier 6 of 10 on the rarity ladder that appears in the drop data. 2 eggs can hatch it, and the best published rate is 3% from the Haunt Egg — about 33 hatches before you should expect to see one. Below: every route in with the expected hatches worked out, where it sits among the 10 outcomes of that egg, how it compares with the other Mythic chickens, and what we found when we checked the published percentages.
Which route is actually faster
The Haunt Egg drops it at 3%; the Blazing Egg at 3%. Supply is the catch. The Blazing Egg cannot be farmed on demand, so the better rate only helps once you are already holding one. If you are working with eggs you can produce yourself, the Haunt Egg is the route that actually applies, and you should budget the 33 hatches that implies rather than the headline number.
Where it sits inside the Haunt Egg
The Haunt Egg can hatch 10 different chickens. The Ghost Hen is the 8th most likely of them, with 2 outcomes sitting below it on the table. At that position it is one of the outcomes you are genuinely farming for, not something that shows up on the way to something else. Plan the session around it rather than expecting it as a side effect.
Against the other Mythic chickens
There are 11 Mythic chickens in the current drop data. Ranked by best available rate, 3 of them are easier to obtain than the Ghost Hen and 7 are harder. Rarity labels are not difficulty labels: two chickens carrying the same tag can sit an order of magnitude apart in expected hatches.
What the published table does not say
These rates come from a single community index rather than the game files, so we checked the arithmetic before using them. 9 of the 17 egg tables do not add up to 100 percent — across the set they run from 91 to 102 percent. The Haunt Egg table does add up, which is a small point in its favour. Rounded rates are good enough for deciding which egg to farm. They are not good enough for predicting any single hatch, and anywhere a rate is written as "under 1%" the true value could be several times smaller than the estimate above.
Step-by-Step
- Keep a Creepy Clown on your plot — it lays the Haunt Egg, which is the source you can actually control.
- Hatch it repeatedly and budget around 33 hatches at the published 3%.
- Skip the Blazing Egg route unless the faster egg is out of reach — it costs roughly 33 hatches instead.
- Treat it as the target of the session; at 8th of 10 it will not appear as a side effect.
