Training a greater chicken

**Ally** · 07-04-2008, 04:25 PM

So how do you train these chickens? Got bored so I thought why not train one up..

Maybe find a chicken fight somewhere in Atlantic too.
Oh and where do I find grains and hay?

Well, I once tamed a chicken outside Brit and sicked it on a feathered friend of his. They both tamed each other up without killing each other. Was pretty relaxed

Never had the chance to take it to the CFC, so I don't know if that was the right way to do it, or even the right kind of chicken...

bond it first, wheat can be found in wheat fields....which might be edible by them as for training start with simple stuffs like other chickens, birds, cats and dogs and so on

Bond first, then start them in the Jhelom bull pens. I started with other chickens, moved quickly to pigs and cows, then bulls. You will need to heal them a lot, and expect them to die more than a few times while training them up. After that, I moved to Haven for skels, spell binders and zombies, then black, brown and grizzly bears, and then on to trolls/ogres. I didn't do them long before I just put him on a shadow ele. Oh, and expect the stat (not skill) gains to go real slow for a long time...that was the worst part of the training.

You can find hay at the farmers market in Skara, that's what I feed mine....2GP apiece, and they weight 10 stones each. The chickens are a ton of fun to use, and fight at the CFC. Nothing like watching a chicken take down an ogre. My chicken is named....drum roll please.....Chick Norris.

Hehe good name jfk. Okay, off to get some hay. Do you remember what max phy resist would be for a tamed one? I got 1 with 5, then 8, and then 10. Is 10 the highest?

**merth** · 07-04-2008, 05:20 PM

hehe Chick Norris too funny!

**merth** · 07-04-2008, 05:21 PM

10 is highest

**Ally** · 07-04-2008, 05:25 PM

Cool thanks guys.

jfk · 07-04-2008, 07:00 PM

Yep 10. If they don't have 10, make them dinner.

What is the strongest monster a fully trained chiken can kill?

jfk · 14-04-2008, 07:05 AM

With a lot of vetting I've had my chicken take down an Ogre Lord. Could probably go higher, but I've never tried. I don't normally hunt with it, it's just for Chicken Fight Club.
