Chickens are largely common in Fortnite Battle Royale and can be found in many parts of the island. They drop meat, which can be useful for restoring health, and you can also use it to move quickly over the map.

To return a chicken to a pen, you will first have to find one. This is why we suggest that you visit one of the following locations as they have a lot of chickens:

• Loot Lava Volcano Station
• Sunflower's Saplings
• Reality Roots
• Overtaken Outpost
• Desolate Delta
• Horse Shoe Hideout
• Fort Jonesy

There are many other locations where chickens spawn, but if you want to complete the new Fortnite challenge as soon as possible, you should land at one of the locations above.

Here is everything else you need to do to complete the challenge:

1) Find a chicken and grab it

The first thing you need to do to complete the challenge is to find and grab a chicken. This is the trickiest part as catching a chicken can sometimes be difficult, especially if you are dealing with enemy players.

To reach out for a chicken, you need to get close to it and press the grab button. If you are not sure what button this is, please check your keyboard or controller configuration. This is the same button that is used to carry teammates and sidegrade weapons.

Once you pick up the chicken, you will gain a low-gravity effect that will help you move faster around the map.

While carrying them, you will need to find a pen that can be easily identified as they have a small red coop and wooden fence surrounding the area.
