Where is the Gold Chicken Egg in Resident Evil 4?

The Egg Hunt request in the RE4 Remake sends you to find a Gold Chicken Egg.

The Resident Evil 4 Gold Chicken Egg in the Remake is the target of the Egg Hunt blue note request, but where to look to actually find the Gold Egg's location isn't clear in the least. The RE4 Remake actually has two different Gold Chicken Eggs for players to find, with one in the Lake area and one much, much further into the game, in the Castle, and we've laid out the location of both of them for you. If you want to find the Gold Chicken Egg in Resident Evil 4 Remake and complete the egg hunt request, we can double and show you where to find not one, but two!

The Gold Chicken Egg in the Resident Evil 4 Remake is found on the East side of the Lake, at the location marked above, and will require use of a fuelled boat to reach it. This means you won't be able to get the Gold Chicken Egg until part-way through your quest to find the Resident Evil 4 Church Key, after killing Del Lago and finding a second boat past the locked Insignia and key to the Resident Evil 4 Wayshrines.

Once you have the boat, take it over to the East unnamed section, which has no enemies, but a lot of wandering chickens, appropriately. At the far side across from you, simply lying on the ground, is the Gold Chicken Egg! Pick it up and take it back to the Merchant, where you can sell it to him to redeem the Egg Hunt request and get your Spinels. Be careful not to throw or eat it - this'll destroy the egg!

However, if you miss the chance, there is another Gold Chicken Egg far, far later in the game - Chapter 12, specifically. After completing the Minecart Ride and having a knife fight with the boss Krauser, you'll be able to return to the Throne Room in the Castle's Easternmost point, where you went down the pit the first time around. In the corner of the room is a Square Lock Box, which you can unlock with the Cubic Device to get a second Gold Chicken Egg!

Guides Editor, GamesRadar+

Joel Franey is a writer, journalist, podcaster and Very Tired Man with a BA from Brunel University, a Masters from Sussex University and a decade working in games journalism, often focused on guides coverage but also in reviews, features and news. His love of games is strongest when it comes to groundbreaking narratives like Disco Elysium, UnderTale and Baldur's Gate 3, as well as innovative or refined gameplay experiences like XCOM, Sifu, Arkham Asylum or Slay the Spire. He is a firm believer that the vast majority of games would be improved by adding a grappling hook, and if they already have one, they should probably add another just to be safe. You can find old work of his at Eurogamer, Gfinity, USgamer, SFX Magazine, RPS, Dicebreaker, VG247, and more.
