A farmer lost her seven chickens, and she wants your help finding them and bringing them back to their little fenced-off area. She's got a very good reward for you, though, so the task is definitely worth your time, even if it isn't the most straightforward to complete. Below, we show you where to find all the Kakariko Cucco locations in Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Cucco locations in Kakariko Village in Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake Graphic: Johnny Yu/Polygon | Source image: Nintendo EPD/Nintendo via Polygon The distressed farmer needs you to find seven escaped Cuccos, of which only a few are immediately visible. Inaccessible as a couple of the locations might seem, you can find all seven chickens during your first visit to Kakariko Village before setting foot in Dodongo Cavern — and you should. Your reward for bringing them safely home to roost is an empty bottle, and those are among the most important items in the game. You can find the Cuccos in any order. We've just numbered them in the order we happened to run across them. Note that some of the birds wander from the location shown in these images, though they remain in the same general area. Cucco #1 location Graphic: Josh Broadwell/Polygon | Source image: Nintendo EPD/Nintendo via Polygon The first one is in the northern part of the village on a ledge near a home. This one wanders, so it might be in front of the house or behind it. Cucco #2 location Graphic: Josh Broadwell/Polygon | Source image: Nintendo EPD/Nintendo via Polygon The second Cucco managed to trap itself in a wooden box just to the south of the first one, nestled against the side of a house. Smack the box with your sword or roll into it to break it, and then take the chicken back home. Cucco #3 location Graphic: Josh Broadwell/Polygon | Source image: Nintendo EPD/Nintendo via Polygon Number three is wandering along the path that leads back to Hyrule Field in the western part of the village. Cucco #4 location Graphic: Josh Broadwell/Polygon | Source image: Nintendo EPD/Nintendo via Polygon Cucco number four is lazing around the construction site underneath the wooden scaffolding. There's a Gold Skulltula on the platform above it, too, so make sure to grab that after you take the Cucco home. Cucco #5 location Graphic: Josh Broadwell/Polygon | Source image: Nintendo EPD/Nintendo via Polygon The next one is on a pile of bricks in the south-central part of the village. You can get it down by firing a seed from your slingshot at it, which startles the poor Cucco and makes it fly down. Run after it, pick it up, and take it home. Despite your aggressive behavior, this single shot won't incite a Cucco mob to attack Link, as long as you don't keep hitting the bird. Cucco #6 location Graphic: Josh Broadwell/Polygon | Source image: Nintendo EPD/Nintendo via Polygon Finding the next Cucco requires the aid of another Cucco. It's behind the tall wooden fencing, and the only way to reach it is by climbing the steps in front of the windmill, holding a Cucco, and jumping. The Cucco flaps its wings so you glide, which gives you enough height to clear the top of the fence. Toss that Cucco back over, then grab the sixth Cucco and toss them over, too. Cucco #7 location Graphic: Josh Broadwell/Polygon | Source image: Nintendo EPD/Nintendo via Polygon Before you cross over the fence again, climb the ladder leading up the stone wall. The final Cucco is wandering around the windmill here. Speak to the farmer again after the final Cucco is returned, and she'll hand over your shiny new empty bottle.
