Chompy bird

From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape

Chompy birds can only be killed when you have finished the Big Chompy Bird Hunting Quest and only if you are using the Ogre composite bow, or Ogre bow, Brutal arrows and ogre arrows. Bloated toads must be used as bait to catch them. When you kill a Chompy Bird you will get a message which says: You scratch a notch on your bow for the chompy bird kill. After 30 kills the player can wear Chompy hats. When a Chompy dies it will give you a corpse, which you can pluck to gain feathers. Doing this will also place a Raw Chompy and some bones on the ground. Raw Chompy can be cooked on a Spitroast to give cooked chompy.

[edit] Chompy hunting

Below is a guide for the most efficient and speediest method to hunt chompies.

[edit] Equipment Setup

[edit] Inventory

This is your recommended Inventory setup. Players should try to carry the least amount of weight they can. Energy potions are optional if players have low agility but they will not last very long. Food is also optional as you might be hurt from the exploding toads. Steel arrows are not required but will be gathered if wielding Ava's accumulator. Only one ogre bellow is needed.

[edit] Hunting Grounds

Players are recommended to use the hunting grounds at the very west. This is mainly because there no monsters to attack you. Additionally, there are several spots to choose from. You do not actually have to put the bait on the dirt grounds but an open area helps.

[edit] Strategy

After finding their preferred hunting spot, players should inflate their bellows. Then players should gather three toads and inflate them with the bellows. Dropping the toads in the hunting area will set them as bait. While waiting for the chompy birds to come, inflate your bellows again and gather toads. When a Chompy bird is seen, they do not have to be attacked straight away, as they actually stay for quite a while. Players can choose to pluck them after they die. Raw chompies weigh 10 kg each, so they will add a considerable amount to a player's weight. Decent money can be made by selling raw chompy on the Grand Exchange. Some players also choose to bring unfinished wild pies, and add the chompies to them. This reduces the chompies' weight to almost nothing. Players may wish to wear weight reducing clothing.
