Discover where to find all Kakariko Village Cuccos in the Ocarina of Time remake.

Background: The Cucco Hunt Begins in Kakariko Village

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake has finally been released. In this adventure game, players take control of Link, a young boy tasked with stopping a great evil from taking complete control of Hyrule. Along the way, Link can help all types of people, whether to advance the main story or obtain additional goodies.

One side quest in Kakariko Village asks Link to find seven missing Cuccos that have escaped their pen. The reward is an Empty Bottle, an item Link will definitely want to snag early. Knowing where the Cuccos are saves the headache of looking all over town, and the order of the rescue does not matter.

Development: Speak to the Red-Haired Woman and Retrieve Cucco 1

When Link arrives in Kakariko Village, he should head south and speak to the young red-haired woman outside the empty stable. She explains that all of her chickens have escaped and asks for help wrangling them.

To rescue a Cucco, Link must locate it, approach it, and press the interact button (A) to pick up the chicken. Then he runs the Cucco to the pen and throws it in with ZR.

The first Cucco is right outside the main entrance when entering the village on the east side. It is near the tree where the Foreman is hanging around. Pick it up, run it back to the pen, and throw it in. Six Cuccos remain.

Development: Find Cucco 2 and Save Cucco 3 for Later

The next Cucco is reached by climbing the stairs on the north side to the elevated area overlooking the rest of the village. It is right beside the stone staircase leading up to that area.

The third Cucco is inside a building under construction directly across from the pen. Among the equipment and bricks, Link can find it. Do not throw this Cucco into the pen yet; Link needs to hold it first to reach a few other Cuccos.

Development: Use a Held Cucco to Reach Cuccos 4 Through 6

While holding Cucco 3, Link should run up the large staircase leading to the raised building in the south. From there, he should look toward the large pile of stacked bricks with a Cucco on it. Jump off the edge of the wall and use the held chicken to fly across the gap to the fourth Cucco. Throw the Cucco being held onto the ground below, then pick up the Cucco on the bricks and put it in the pen. Keep the other bird out, because it will be needed to access other areas.

The fifth Cucco is behind the fenced-off area in the northeast corner of town. While holding a Cucco, Link can make his way up the staircase directly in front of the windmill and jump off the edge where the fence is broken. Use the Cucco to float over the high fence to the other side. Then take both Cuccos and toss them over the fence before returning them to the pen. Do not go over the fence with them right away.

Still on the other side of the high fence, look for two ladders that lead up the eastern wall where the windmill is. Climb the ladders to find Cucco 6 right in front of Link. Now float down to the village with this Cucco and throw all three birds into the pen. One Cucco remains.

Latest Progress: Break the Final Box to Recover Cucco 7

The seventh and final Cucco is inside a box to the left of a house with a red door. The box is right by the main square where the central tree is. Link can roll into the box to break it, grab the Cucco, and return the bird to the pen.

Current Stage: Complete the Quest and Earn the Empty Bottle

Once all seven Cuccos are back in the pen, speak to the young red-haired woman to complete the side quest and earn an Empty Bottle to use.
