Beginner Guide
Tutorial unlock, codes, Feeder, Pit cash, Tower, Arena trio, Promotes and Charm Dust, fuse with Lock, then rebirth when the panel says so.
By Bloxron Editorial Team · Last updated

Finish the tutorial so codes unlock. Stock the Feeder, Pit with your strongest bird for Cash, push Tower when ready, field a three-chicken Arena team, Promote keepers and claim daily Charm Dust when you can, fuse with Lock checked, then rebirth only after you spend leftover Cash on hatch or fuse.
Grab strings on Codes and hatch rewards with the egg guide. Combat specials and skill Lock are on Abilities.
Common mistakes
- Trying to redeem codes before the tutorial finishes
- Selling route chickens before checking the Flock index
- Opening money or corn boosts while AFK
- Fusing without Lock on the egg-type trait or combat special you want to keep
- Queueing Arena with only one fused carry: you need three birds
- Crossing a rebirth milestone without opening Rebirth Milestones to claim the Ascension Egg
- Skipping the daily Shop Charm Dust claim before long Arena or Pit sessions
First session
- Finish the tutorial. Work through hatch, Feeder, a Tower floor, Recycler, scrap pickup, a second chicken, fuse, and chaos. Chaos is a second fight mode in the fight menu; finish the tutorial step, then come back to it later. Codes unlock when that chain is done.
- Redeem codes and claim Community Thunder. Open the ticket icon (top-left), paste every active string, including BATTLEREADY if still live, then claim the Community / group Thunder Egg if it is offered.
- Keep the Feeder stocked. Hungry birds stall. Upgrade Feeder and Coop when you have spare Cash so more feeders and slots stay online.
- Pit for Cash, scrap to Recycler. Send your strongest chicken to the Pit. Pick scrap near the Pit fence and run it through the Recycler for more Cash.
- Tower when ready. Climb floors when Pit income feels stable. You can pay Cash to resume from your highest floor. Rebirth unlocks when the rebirth panel shows a Tower floor gate. Use that number on the panel, not a remembered one.
- Arena team (3 chickens). Open Arena from the HUD, pick your three strongest birds, and queue Battle for Trophies and Ranks. Master V (~2,200 trophies) grants one Ascension Egg; Grandmaster I (top 1%) grants three. Spread fuse, Promotes, and Battle Charms across the roster. Arena scores the full team, not one carry.
- Promote keepers and claim Charm Dust. When you have same-name duplicates, open Flock → Promote for permanent stars. Claim free Charm Dust from the daily Shop reward, then roll Battle Charms on birds you actually field. Skip Trick Egg hunting until Colossus and Catalyst are online.
- Fuse with Lock. Pick a base and a donor. Lock the egg-type trait you want. If you are moving a combat special, Lock that skill the same way. An unlocked fuse can weaken rolls. Check the preview before you confirm.
- Check Fertility Gene in Flock. Fusion can expand which egg types a chicken lays. Hover Fertility Gene on the bird before you sell or fuse again.
- Rebirth with Cash spent first. Spend remaining Cash on hatch or fuse, then confirm rebirth. Cash, level, and Coop progress reset. Your flock, permanent money/corn/egg bonuses, Recycler level, and faster hatch upgrades stay, with level-cap bumps. At 10, 100, and 250 lifetime rebirths, open Rebirth Milestones from the rebirth menu and claim each Ascension Egg tier when it lights up.
Rebirth: resets vs keeps
Spend remaining Cash on hatch or fuse before you confirm. Floor gates change between runs, so check the Tower floor on the rebirth panel.
| Resets | Keeps |
|---|---|
| Cash on hand | Flock (your chickens) |
| Player level (back to 1) | Permanent Cash / Corn bonuses |
| Coop / Feeder progress | Permanent egg-output bonuses |
| Current Tower run progress | Level-cap increases |
| Recycler level | |
| Faster hatch upgrades | |
| Rebirth milestone Ascension Eggs (claim at 10 / 100 / 250) |
Ascension Egg milestones
Ascension Eggs come from lifetime rebirth totals and Arena ranks, not from a daily lay chain. Hatch odds and pool birds are on the Eggs page. Queue steps and rank rewards are on the Arena page.
| Source | Requirement | Reward |
|---|---|---|
| Rebirth total | 10 rebirths | 1 Ascension Egg |
| Rebirth total | 100 rebirths | 1 Ascension Egg |
| Rebirth total | 250 rebirths | 1 Ascension Egg |
| Arena rank | Master V (~2,200 trophies) | 1 Ascension Egg |
| Arena rank | Grandmaster I (top 1%) | 3 Ascension Eggs |
FAQ
When do codes unlock?
After the tutorial finishes: hatch, feeder, tower, recycler, scrap, second chicken, fuse, and chaos. Then the top-left ticket icon accepts strings.
Should I rebirth as soon as the panel lights up?
Only if the deal looks fair and leftover Cash is already spent on hatch or fuse. The Tower floor on the rebirth menu is the gate, and it is not the same every run. Late totals also unlock Ascension Eggs at 10, 100, and 250 rebirths.
What is Chicken Arena?
A three-chicken team mode. Open Arena, pick a trio, Battle for Trophies, and climb Ranks. Master V grants one Ascension Egg; Grandmaster I (top 1%) grants three. Details and hatch odds are on the Eggs page.
How do I claim rebirth Ascension Eggs?
Open Rebirth Milestones from the rebirth menu after your lifetime total hits 10, 100, or 250. Claim each tier when it lights up: they are not a passive inventory drop.
What are Chicken Promotions?
Spend same-name duplicates on the Promote tab in Flock for permanent stars and stats. Later stars need more copies. Cap is about ten per bird.
How do I get Charm Dust?
Claim the free daily Shop reward when it is available. Missions and codes like BATTLEREADY also pay dust. Use it to roll Battle Charms on birds you field.
What are missions?
Daily and weekly missions on the HUD pay Cash, eggs, Charm Dust, or other rewards. Knock them out while you farm Pit, Tower, or Arena instead of ignoring the tracker.
Does Recycler level reset on rebirth?
No. Recycler level and faster hatch upgrades persist. Cash, player level, and Coop/Feeder progress still reset.
Can fuse make a chicken worse?
Yes, if you skip Lock or ignore the preview. Lock the egg trait you care about and abort if the preview looks weaker than your base.
What does Fertility Gene do?
It shows which egg types a bird can lay. Fusion can expand that set. Read it in Flock before you sell a route layer.
How do combat specials move?
The special is bound to the hen until you Lock it in fuse. Named donors, observed loadouts, and Pit vs Tower picks are on the abilities page.
