How to Get the Taser Hen
What this page helps you decide: which egg to hatch for the Taser Hen, and how many hatches to budget before it shows up
The Taser Hen is a Rare chicken, tier 3 of 10 on the rarity ladder that appears in the drop data. 2 eggs can hatch it, and the best published rate is 23% from the Circuit Egg — about 4 hatches before you should expect to see one. Below: every route in with the expected hatches worked out, where it sits among the 8 outcomes of that egg, how it compares with the other Rare chickens, and what we found when we checked the published percentages.
Which route is actually faster
The Circuit Egg drops it at 23%; the Scratch Egg at 12%. In expected hatches that is roughly 2 times more work on the slower route. Both eggs come from chickens you can keep on the plot, so the higher rate is simply the one to farm.
Where it sits inside the Circuit Egg
The Circuit Egg can hatch 8 different chickens. The Taser Hen is the 1st most likely of them, with 7 outcomes sitting below it on the table. At that position it turns up often enough that a dedicated farm is usually wasted effort — it arrives while you are chasing the rarer drops in the same egg.
Against the other Rare chickens
There are 29 Rare chickens in the current drop data. Ranked by best available rate, 0 of them are easier to obtain than the Taser Hen and 28 are harder. Nothing at this rarity comes easier, so if you want a Rare at all, this is where to start.
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 Circuit Egg table is one of those, summing to 101 percent, so treat 23% as a rounded figure rather than an exact one. 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 Taser Hen on your plot — it lays the Circuit Egg, which is the source you can actually control.
- Hatch it repeatedly and budget around 4 hatches at the published 23%.
- Skip the Scratch Egg route unless the faster egg is out of reach — it costs roughly 8 hatches instead.
- Treat it as a by-product: farm the Circuit Egg for its rarer outcomes and this one will arrive on the way.

FAQ
How do you get the Taser Hen in Grow a Chicken Fighter?
Hatch the Circuit Egg. It drops the Taser Hen at 23%, which works out to roughly 4 hatches before you should expect one.
What rarity is the Taser Hen?
Rare, which is tier 3 of the 10 rarity steps that appear in the drop data.
Is the Taser Hen worth farming for?
Not on its own. It is the 1st most likely outcome of the Circuit Egg, so it arrives while you farm that egg for something rarer.
Is the Scratch Egg worth using for it?
Only when the Circuit Egg is out of reach. The rate there is 12% against 23%, which is about 8 hatches instead of 4.
Does the Taser Hen lay anything?
Yes — the Circuit Egg at 75%. Keeping one on the plot is how you produce that egg.
