Grow a Chicken Fighter Rarity List: Common to Secret
Rarity in Grow a Chicken Fighter is a property of chickens, not eggs, and it decides how high a chicken’s stats can go. Here is the full ladder with examples you can actually hatch.
The rarity ladder
| Tier | Example chickens | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Common | Classic Rooster, NPC Chick, Pizza Rooster, Zombie Chick, Stone Face, Static Chick | Starters and egg-line workhorses |
| Uncommon | Cosmo Brat, Farmer Rooster, Bow Chick, Bone Rooster, Jack Rooster | Cosmo Brat is the Scratch Egg layer everyone uses |
| Rare | Creepy Clown, Slugger Hen, Sergeant Hen, Viking Rooster, Taser Hen, Ballerina Hen, Rooster of Fortune | Most of the chickens that unlock a new egg line |
| Epic | Commando Rooster, Crest Rooster, Spider Chicken, Valkyrie Hen, Rumble Rooster, Shockwave Hen, Dudoo Squat | Valkyrie Hen is the creators’ “best starter” |
| Legendary | Astro Chick, Agent Cluck, Founder Rooster, Blitz Rooster, Bravo Rooster | Founder Rooster is the only Colossal Egg layer |
| Mythic | Baron Cluck, Phoenix Hen, Ghost Hen, Viper Hen, Void Rooster, Talon Titan | Some rosters write “Mythical”; same tier |
| Divine | Doll Hen, Aurora Hen, Nine-Tail Hen, Zodiac Hen | Doll Hen carries Voodoo |
| Celestial | Prism Rooster, Radiant Fenghuang, Overclock Rooster, Crystal Hen | Radiant Fenghuang carries Cycle of Ash |
| Cosmic | Reaper Rooster, Nebula Hen | The 31-cap bodies for Voodoo |
| Secret | 404 Chick, Golden Goose, Storm Colossus | Also 31-cap; Storm Colossus arrived with the Aug 15 update |
The order up to Celestial is consistent across recorded footage and the fan rosters. Secret and Cosmic both sit above Celestial, but no official text says which of the two is higher, and we are not going to guess.
Why rarity matters: the stat cap
Every stat (Power, HP, Speed, Attack, Egg, Vigor, Impulse) has a per-chicken maximum. Players who have compared cards report that only Cosmic and Secret chickens can reach 31; lower tiers top out earlier, with 27 showing up as a max on a mid-tier bird in one clip. That is the whole reason the Reaper Rooster and 404 Chick anchor both meta builds: the skill can come from anywhere, but the body has to be a 31-cap tier to carry it. See the tier list for how rarity and skills combine into actual rankings, because rarity alone does not decide a chicken’s tier (Zombie Chick is Common and still B-tier for its laying).
Fusion can move a chicken up the ladder. One early recorded fusion turned an Uncommon into a Rare, and a fusion that lands in Cosmic or Secret gets the 31 cap. Details on the fuse guide.
Where rosters disagree
Fan rosters do not always match. The cases worth knowing:
- Doll Hen: Divine on two rosters and in streamer footage; one site says Rare.
- Aurora Hen: Divine on two rosters; one site says Legendary.
- Zombie Chick: Common on three sources; one site says Rare.
- Storm Colossus: Secret on two rosters; one wiki says Mythic.
- Astro Chick: Legendary on four sources; one wiki says Rare.
When in doubt, trust the in-game card. The chickens index lists our best-supported rarity for each bird.
Egg rarity: the game does not rate eggs
You will see Thunder Egg called Rare on one site and Legendary on another, or Void Egg called Mythic, Very Rare, and Legendary. That is because the game only labels chickens; sites infer an egg’s “rarity” from the chickens inside it, and they infer differently. What is consistent is the egg’s pool: the Nest Egg holds Commons and Uncommons, while the Blazing Egg’s pool is almost entirely Legendary and above (Golden Goose 25%, Baron Cluck 9%, Founder Rooster 8%, 404 Chick 8%, down to Reaper Rooster and Nebula Hen at 2% each). Use the pools on the eggs page, and treat any egg rarity label as a fan-site shorthand.
Quick answers
- What is the highest rarity? Secret or Cosmic; the game has not ranked one over the other.
- Is Celestial above Divine? Yes, on every roster: Radiant Fenghuang (Celestial) sits above Doll Hen (Divine).
- Do scripted tier lists use this ladder? Some videos name chickens like Shadow Clucker or Golden Hen; those are not in the game’s egg index and have no rarity because they do not exist. See the FAQ.
