Zombie Chicken
Zombie Chickens are enemies first found in the gloomier parts of the world in Rayman 2. They are the result of hens laying dead eggs out of terror from the events caused by the Robo-Pirates. They can also be seen in the Game Boy Advance version of Rayman 3 and as well as very briefly in the console versions. Ghostly, spirit-like versions can also be seen floating around in the First Ruins track in Rayman M.

They appeared in Rayman 2 in the swamp levels, appearing from the ground or swamp water and floating towards you to hurt you. They appear again with the same roles in the portable versions of Rayman 2 and Rayman 3.
In Rayman 3, it is revealed that the Knaaren are fond of Zombie Chicken eggs; many vending machines containing them are found in the Desert of the Knaaren. It is necessary for Rayman to pick up these eggs and place them on certain platforms to open doors; however, ghostly Zombie Chickens appear and harrass Rayman if he attempts to move their eggs. They have their own frantic, frightening-sounding theme in this game.
It is unknown whether the Zombie Chickens have any connection to the Denys or the Minisauruses, other chicken-like creatures found in the Glade of Dreams.
Appearance
Zombie Chickens have slightly deformed chicken beaks with cartoony eyes and grey-brown feathers on their heads. They wear long, ripped, brown cloaks and their arms look like human skeleton ones that are bent in a haunting way.

There are two different kinds of Zombie Chickens in the PC version of Rayman 2: a kind with eyes, and a kind with hollow eye sockets. Both kinds can be found in the Tomb of the Ancients.
