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.


Hen appeared in the first Story of Chapter 2 (the [[SS Tea Cup]]): [[Return the Hen to Her Nest]]. The cutscene before this stage depicts the three [[Pirate Goom]] soldiers of the [[Black Sugar Pirates]] dashing away with [[Wario's Treasures]] and startling the graceful bird. Wario followed closely behind, in pursuit of his loot. However, when he saw his pet fly away, he temporarily stopped his quest, as he loved his Hen even more than he did money. He soon found the Hen in the outskirts of his lawn, and he managed to fight his way through the other Chickens and strange foes to return the Hen to her nest. It was there that she laid an [[egg]].

Wario Land II[edit]

The hen is featured in the first story of Chapter 2, Return the hen to her nest.

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.

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.
