The All-Clucking Cucco
In your quest to find Zelda, you and your Lucky Clover Gazette colleague Penn come across a prophetic cucco. This side adventure, called The All-Clucking Cucco, takes place in the Akkala region.
As this Tears of the Kingdom quest involves three tricky trials, here's how to complete The All-Clucking Cucco.
- Quest Giver: Penn
- Prerequisites: Begin the Potential Princess Sighting! questline at the Lucky Clover Gazette
- Reward: Rupees

The All-Clucking Cucco side adventure is part of the Potential Princess Sightings questline. After starting the Potential Princess Sightings quest at the Lucky Glover Gazette (in the Hebra Mountains), you can travel to the South Akkala stable to speak to Penn (coordinates 3163, 1713, 0201), which will trigger the All-Clucking Cucco quest.
The cucco is a bit further northeast, on top of the grassy hill. Speak to him and he'll give you a trial: reach the top of the South Akkala Stable within the time limit. You can use any means to get there, but simply running and climbing should suffice.
As part of the second trial, you need to collect three logs and bring them back to the cucco. Chop down the nearby trees (use an axe if you have one) and use the Ultrahand ability to take the logs uphill. To save time, glue the three logs together (still using Ultrahand) and bring them back in one go.
Finally, be prepared to fight three ninjas from the Yiga Clan. You may use the large tree to avoid getting overwhelmed (climb it, then shoot arrows at the ninjas).
Finish the fight to complete The All-Clucking Cucco side adventure. Penn will give you a reward in the form of rupees, but the exact amount depends on your progress in the Potential Princess Sightings questline.
