The hen is Wario's pet chicken seen in Wario Land II. She is one of the few things whom Wario loves other than treasure and wealth.
History[edit]
Wario Land II[edit]
The hen is featured in the first story of Chapter 2, Return the hen to her nest. The cutscene before the level shows the hen being started as three Pirate Goom soldiers of the Black Sugar Gang escape with Wario's treasures.[1] When the hen flies away, Wario briefly stops his pursuit to go looking for the hen. In gameplay, the hen is found in the outskirts of the level. While retrieving the hen, Wario is attacked by Roosters, which are similarly protective over the hen. Back at her nest, the hen lays an egg.
Game & Watch Gallery 4[edit]
The hen reappears in the Modern version of Fire Attack in Game & Watch Gallery 4. She climbs up the stairs into Wario's fort, where she lays an egg worth five points if Wario stands behind her,[2] but gives no points if she is attacked. The hen is shown during the corresponding Game Select sequence of Fire Attack, strutting around a tomato field before promptly flying off when seeing a Bob-omb approaching Wario.
