Raw chicken


 * This article is about the drop from an ordinary chicken. For the item dropped by undead chickens, see Raw chicken (undead).



A Raw chicken is an uncooked food item obtained by killing a chicken or (less commonly) a rooster. Players can make it into a cooked chicken by using it on a fire or a range. Doing so requires only level 1 Cooking, and grants 30 experience points.

These are popular amongst new players, since any player can attempt to cook them (though players with low Cooking levels risk producing a burnt chicken). Chickens are also found around Lumbridge, and are easy to kill.

The general store will not pay anything for raw chickens, and very few players will pay for them, since they are so easy to obtain. Therefore, players who do not need them may as well drop them on the ground for others to pick up.
