FULL GUIDE To NEW UPDATE 3 in Grow A Chicken Fighter (SpaceQT) — full Update 3 walkthrough — Trick Egg, Charms & Promotions in action
What Update 3 Added (2026-08-29)
UPDATE #3 went live on August 29, 2026 (official Discord #updates). The two headline mechanics are Battle Charms — rollable permanent stat boosts on each chicken — and Chicken Promotions, which spend duplicate chickens to raise stats and unlock charm slots. New content includes the Trick Egg, 12 new chickens, chicken Favoriting, and shop additions: a new Daily Reward, a new Pack, and Auto Rebirth.
Grab the new code BATTLEREADY on the codes page — it grants Charm Dust, a Royal Egg, and a Hatch Luck boost.
Battle Charms — How They Work
Battle Charms unlock at Rebirth Level 2 (see the rebirth guide if you’re not there yet). Each chicken carries its own charms as permanent combat boosts.
How to roll charms:
- Open the Flock and pick a chicken
- Click the “+” button
- Choose ROLL CHARMS — each roll costs 20 Charm Dust
Charm Slots & Promotion Unlocks
Every chicken has 8 charm slots (I–VIII). Only slot I is open by default — the rest unlock through Promotions:
| Promotions (stars) | Slots Unlocked |
|---|---|
| 0★ (no promotion) | I |
| 2★ | II |
| 4★ | III |
| 6★ | IV |
| 8★ | V, VI |
| 10★ | VII, VIII |
You can lock a slot once you roll a stat you want — locking prevents further rolls on that slot but doubles the reroll cost for the chicken’s remaining rolls, so lock late, not early.
Charm Rarities & Drop Rates
| Charm Rarity | Chance |
|---|---|
| Common | 49.8% |
| Uncommon | 26.9% |
| Rare | 17.9% |
| Super Rare | 4.3% |
| Legendary | 1.0% |
| Ascended | 0.1% |
Max stat boosts per charm (at the top of the roll pool): DEF 13.3%, HP 13.3%, CRIT 11.1%, CRIT RES 11.1%, CRIT DMG 11.1%, Ability Boost 8.9%, DMG Reduction 8.9%, Movement Speed 8.9%.
Fusion rule: charms only carry over when fusing chickens of the same rarity — fusion with a different-rarity donor loses the charms. Check the fusion guide before sacrificing a rolled chicken.
How to Get Charm Dust
- Free daily claim — 100 Charm Dust in the Shop every day (new in Update 3)
- Robux — Charm Dust packs are buyable in the Shop
- Code
BATTLEREADY— includes Charm Dust (active codes)
At 20 Dust per roll, the free daily claim alone is 5 rolls a day — slow but steady. Prioritize rolling on your best fighter first (see the ability tier list and best chicken picks).
Chicken Promotions
Promotions spend duplicate chickens to add a star (up to 10★). Each promotion:
- Raises the chicken’s base stats
- Unlocks charm slots (table above)
Duplicates you weren’t using for fusion now have a clear sink — promote your meta carries first. It pairs naturally with Favoriting (new in Update 3): favorite chickens you’re promoting or farming with so they’re protected from bulk selection and accidental fusing.
The Trick Egg
The Trick Egg is the new egg of Update 3 — and the hardest egg to farm in the game:
- Only one chicken lays it: Catalyst Hen (Secret, 2% lay chance)
- Catalyst Hen itself comes from the Colossal Egg at under 0.2% — see the eggs page for Colossal Egg sources
- Hatch pool spans Rare to Secret, per-chicken rates not yet published
| Trick Egg Hatches | Rarity |
|---|---|
| Domino Chick | Rare |
| Checkmate Hen | Epic |
| Puzzle Hen | Legendary |
| High Roller Rooster | Cosmic |
| Ace Rooster | Secret |
Shop Additions
Alongside the free daily Charm Dust, Update 3 added a new Daily Reward, a new Pack, and Auto Rebirth — the official way to automate rebirths without scripts. See the gamepass & shop review before spending Robux.
