The Genome
Six body parts, a few wrapped surprises, one honest math — and you can check all of it yourself.
What am I looking at?
A bird shows six body parts: 🎨 Feathers, 👁️ Eyes, 👑 Crest, 🐔 Body, 🦚 Tail and ✨ Extra. Each part gets a one-word look and dots for rarity — that's the whole system.
What does it hide?
Wrapped 🎁 surprises: about a third of every bird's genes are invisible until you run a Gene Lab test on its page. A tested bird is stamped 🧬 forever and its surprises become public — an untested bird keeps them for its children.
What is it worth?
The power score (0-100) sums how unlikely every look was to roll. Higher = harder to roll = the market pays attention. Disclosed rare parts trade at a premium.
The six parts
Everything a chicken shows lives in one of these. On every bird page the genome panel is just this list — tap a part for its story.
Color and pattern roll from both parents — a baby can pull a hidden shade out of nowhere.
6 gene slots
Every hatch rolls its eyes fresh. Cosmic eyes land on about 2 in 100 birds.
2 gene slots
The head crown. Royal pairs (crown + aura) wake the mutation recipes here.
4 gene slots
Shape, wings and legs — the frame everything else sits on. Mostly steady, rarely surprising.
8 gene slots
Tail drama. Phoenix tails land on about 8 in 100 birds.
2 gene slots
Nature, wearables and the mutation roll — the rarest things in the game live here.
3 gene slots
Seed
Every chicken starts as a seed — a random string created the moment its egg is laid. The seed is the chicken's complete source code.
DNA roll
The seed is hashed into a deterministic random stream. The same seed rolls the same numbers every time, on every device, forever.
Genes roll
The roll fills 25 gene slots — the six body parts you see (feathers, eyes, crest, body, tail, extra) plus the wrapped 🎁 surprises hidden inside. Common looks roll often, rare looks roll rarely.
Render
The renderer draws exactly what the genes say. No two seeds look alike — and what a bird hides, only a lab test reveals.
Deterministic means checkable. A chicken is not a picture we uploaded and counted — it is the output of math anyone can re-run. The verifier at the bottom of this page computes any seed with the same librarythe game uses at hatch. If a seed made a mythic, the math says so — and if it didn't, no marketing can pretend otherwise.

The six parts are the readable layer; underneath, every slot rolls a weighted value like the ones below — most common (left) to rarest (right, gold). These are the real weights the hatch roll uses. Rarer rolls add more “surprise bits” to a chicken's rarity score.
Rarity, measured honestly
Every look a chicken shows was a roll with real odds — rare looks are rare because the math says so, not because we picked favorites. Each rare roll adds “surprise bits” to the bird's score; stack enough of them and the tier climbs. The odds of a bird's exact genome existing in the wild are shown as 1 in N on every chicken page.
Egg tier shifts the odds before a chicken is even born: a standard egg is one roll, premium keeps the best of three rolls, and golden guarantees at least Rare — plus the exclusive royal model pool.
Wrapped surprises & breeding
🎁 Wrapped surprises
About a third of a chicken's genes are hidden — a second look a bird carries but does not show. Hidden looks can resurface generations later when you breed: a plain-looking hen may be carrying the exact shade her great-grandchick finally wears.
🧬 The Gene Lab— an owner can run a lab test on their bird's page to unwrap every surprise. Tested birds are stamped forever: their carries show in jade on the genome panel and in market filters. Untested birds keep their secrets — that gap is where the hunting is.
Sex & lineage
Sex rolls 50/50 from the seed. Egg tier stamps a visual lineage into the DNA — golden eggs draw from the royal pool, premium from exotic — and breeding passes the stronger parent's lineage on.
Nest luck
Fed birds earn hearts (up to 3 each). The combined affection of both parents biases the hatch roll toward rarer looks, part by part. Daily care is the skill layer: attentive breeders hatch better birds from the same seeds.
The Golden One
Exactly one seed in 1,000,000 is The Golden One — a hard rule in code, not a promo. It is always a rooster, it always looks the way the seed dictates, and anyone can verify a claim by running the seed through the verifier below.
What collectors look for
- Rare looks — any shown gene under ~10% odds shows as a gold star on the chicken page. Stacked rares climb the tiers fast.
- Mutations — only 8% of chickens carry one; galaxy, the rarest, is a 1-in-500 roll. They live in ✨ Extra.
- Royal & exotic lineage — exclusive model pools that only golden and premium eggs can start.
- 🎁 Depth — breeders pay for birds whose wrapped surprises might unlock a combination two generations out.
- Hearts — a ❤️❤️❤️ breeding pair hatches luckier nests than any shop egg.
Verify any chicken yourself
Paste a seed below. Everything is computed in your browser with the same library the game hatches chickens from — nothing is sent to a server, and nothing is taken on faith. Copy the seed of any of your birds from its page (shown under the genome panel), or try any random string to see what it would hatch into.
