How to open a Vault while holding a chicken in Fortnite Chapter 3

Fortnite Chapter 3: Season 1 sees Vaults return to the Island, and some creative players have figured out that you can actually use a chicken to open them.

Fortnite Chapter 3 is well underway, and with the likes of Marvel’s Spider Man and iconic actor, Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson, joining the Epic Games title’s ever-growing roster, it’s already been an absolute banger.

The map itself has also undergone a huge overhaul with Vaults making a return. These high-security rooms are hidden under the mysterious Seven Outposts, and they contain loads of Supply Chests with rare weapons inside.

You’ll need to pay a visit to one of these Vaults to complete the new Avian Ambush Quests, but instead of enlisting another player to open it, this time you’ll have to be holding a chicken. Here’s how to do just that.

Who would have thought that these feathered fiends were key to unlocking the Island’s greatest treasures?

How to open a Vault while holding a chicken in Fortnite

To open a Vault with a chicken in Fortnite Chapter 3, you first need to find a chicken out in the wild (we’ve got a location guide that should help) then travel to any Vault location hidden around the island.

Vaults can be found at Seven Outposts at the corners of the map. Once you arrive there, you’ll need to search each individual building to see which one has a downstairs area for you to descend into.

Found it? Good. Now, you’ll need to stand in front of the Vault door with your chicken held high above your head, waiting for it to scan you both and eventually allow you to enter.

Normally, you’d need to have at least two players stand in front of a Vault for it to open, but the chicken works as a replacement. Squads require more players, so it might be easier to complete this quest solo.
