Wario's pet chicken [[Hen]] might be a Chick as well, although a much smaller, female one.

Chicks could be found as enemies in this game. They mainly appeared in stage 2-1: [[Return the Hen to Her Nest]], but could also be found in [[Defeat the Giant Spear Man (5-1)(2)|another level]]. Despite their menacing look they behave friendly as long as Wario ignores them. However, as soon as Wario touches them, they will get enraged and peck at the treasure hunter which will cost him some [[Coin|coin]]s if he gets hit. They also chase him while he is holding Hen.

Chicks are very persistent, so Wario cannot even damage them with his ramming attack. Attacking them like that will only stun them for a short time. While stunned they can be picked up. Chicks are heavy enemies and Wario's speed and jump distance will decrease while carrying one. They can only be defeated by [[Ground Pound|groundpounding]] on them.

Three Roosters

Roosters[1] appear in Wario Land II as enemies. They are roughly the size of Wario and have sharp beaks to attack. Wario's pet hen is a female member of their species, and more hens may have been the chickens in the modern version of the Game & Watch title Fire Attack in Game & Watch Gallery 4. Roosters are encountered in stage 2-1: Return the hen to her nest mainly, though they also appear in another level. Roosters are peaceful unless Wario either touches them or is holding the hen, upon which the roosters become enraged and peck at him, taking away some of his coins if he gets hit. Roosters are unaffected by Wario's charging, which they are stunned by instead. While stunned, they can be picked up. Roosters are heavy enemies, and Wario's speed and jump distance will decrease while carrying one. Roosters can only be defeated from a Ground Pound.
