Hen
Hen has 10 health.
Spirit does nothing to it at all. Blunt, slash and pierce land at full damage, so that is what to bring.
Its only attack is base attack, 10 blunt.
Of everything craftable,
Frostfire Crossbow,
Thunderblood Crossbow and
Lightning Strike put the most damage through what it resists.
It always drops
Chicken Meat and
Feathers.
It can be tamed with
Dandelion,
Barley,
Beech Seeds,
Birch Seeds,
Carrot Seeds,
Onion Seeds and
Turnip Seeds.
Hen is a tameable bird with 10 health and the grown form of a
Chicken, which makes it the one tame that has to be hatched from an
Egg rather than fed in the wild. A chicken takes roughly two in-game days to grow up. Feeding a hen
Dandelion,
Barley,
Beech Seeds,
Birch Seeds,
Carrot Seeds,
Onion Seeds or
Turnip Seeds makes it lay more eggs. It drops one
Chicken Meat and 1 to 3
Feathers, and takes normal damage from every type except spirit.
Buy an
egg from Hildir, keep it warm near a fire until it hatches, and the result is tame from its first breath. Feed seeds,
dandelions or
barley. They are fragile and dumb in equal measure, so wall the coop against everything, including your own careless swings: only a
Butcher Knife can hurt them on purpose.
With devcommands enabled, this spawns Hen in front of you. The third number is the level: 3 spawns a 2-star.
