How to Get the Imposter Chick
The Imposter Chick is a Mythic chicken from the Cursed Egg, published at 2%. That works out to about 50 hatches before you should expect one. The Cursed Egg table's published percentages add up to 99%, not 100%. That gap means at least one figure is rounded or out of date, and every expected-hatch number derived from this table inherits that error. Below: the full 9-row table with expected hatches worked out for every outcome, where the Imposter Chick sits among them, and what the published rate does and does not tell you.
Where the Imposter Chick sits in the Cursed Egg
Of the 9 outcomes, 8 are more common and 0 are rarer. At 2% you should expect roughly 50 hatches, against 5 for NPC Chick at the top of the table and 50 for Imposter Chick at the bottom. These figures are reciprocals of the published rates, not survey results: they describe the average, and an unlucky run can and will run well past them.
The percentages do not add up, and that matters
The 9 published rates sum to 99%. A table that does not land on 100% has at least one rounded or stale figure in it, and there is no way from outside the game to tell which. The 50-hatch estimate above is therefore a working figure, not a precise one — treat it as the right order of magnitude rather than a number to plan a grind around to the hatch.
What the published rate does not tell you
A published 2% is a per-hatch probability, not a counter that fills up. After 50 hatches roughly a third of players will still have nothing, because each hatch is independent of the last. There is also no published pity system in this game, so a long dry run does not improve the next attempt. The rate is also community-recorded rather than developer-published, and it can change with any update.
Step-by-Step
- Get hold of a Cursed Egg — it is the only published route to this chicken.
- Hatch it and budget around 50 hatches at the published 2%.
- Nothing in this egg is rarer, so this is the pull the whole table is built around.
