Getting Started

Beginner Guide — How to Start

Your first hour in Grow a Chicken Fighter: redeem codes, hatch the right eggs, build a cash loop, and set up your first useful checkpoint.

Guide

01

Redeem every code first

Before you spend a single minute farming, redeem every active code from the codes page. Early codes hand you Cash, free Nest and Thunder Eggs, and timed boosts — the difference compounds across your whole first session.

Write down what each code gave you and when. That baseline tells you later whether a failing code expired or you mistyped it.

02

Build one cash loop

Send your best chicken to the PIT, reinvest the income into attack upgrades, and keep the loop running. One repeatable route beats three abandoned ones.

Recycler income is small but constant — feed scrap while your PIT fighter works and let both streams overlap.

03

Choose one active fighter

Split upgrades across your roster and nothing hits hard. Pick your best combat chicken, push its attack, and keep money-layers like Viking Chicken working in the background.

Use Favoriting (UPDATE #3) to protect the chickens you are keeping from accidental selection or fusion.

04

Reach your first checkpoint

Your first meaningful checkpoint is a Tower floor you cannot beat yet. Use it as the test: upgrade until you clear it, then check what the next floor demands.

When the loop slows to a crawl, that is your rebirth signal — read the rebirth guide before you reset.
