How to unlock the Chicken Dinner achievement in Desperados III - Definitive Guide
From my experience, you DO NOT have to complete missions for progress to count, you can exit to the main menu right away.
Chicken 1: Mission 2 - Running Late On Payday (Byers Pass)
Found on a ledge above the larger of the two waterfalls, near the start of the mission. The correct waterfall is the one between the area where Cooper encounters the first civilians being shot at, and where you first encounter Doc, just look up.
Note: Finding an angle to shoot the chicken with cooper can be difficult, I recommend progressing until you can use Docs revolver than taking it with that.
Chicken 2: Mission 9 - Louisiana Voodoo (Mississippi River)
Found on a floating pallet, behind the steam boat Cooper is stuck on. The easiest method is swimming out to it with Isabelle and using the connect ability on the chicken and a nearby guard, killing the guard will kill the chicken.
Chicken 3 : Mission 16 - The Old And The New (Devils Canyon III)
Found on a ledge below the gate to the cemetery, look around where all the vines are, just get Doc positioned on the closest bridge and it should be easy.
Similar to the hidden developers, there are three golden chickens hidden in the game. These are a lot harder to spot though and you will need to snipe them from afar. When aiming at the chickens, your reticle might remain red, but as long as the path of the bullet is green, you should be able to shoot.
Check the screenshots below to see where each golden chicken is located.
Mission 2: Running Late on Payday
Shortly before teaming up with McCoy, you will pass a waterfall as you're making your way across the train. The chicken is located on a cliff slightly above this waterfall. You will have to continue with the mission for a short while until you unlock McCoy's Colt Buntline. At this point you can come back and snipe the chicken from the fallen tree you used as a makeshift bridge.
Mission 9: Louisiana Voodoo
This chicken is found on some debris near the boat where Cooper is stuck. You will have to continue the mission until you rescue McCoy and come back to shoot the chicken.
Mission 16: The Old and the New
The final chicken can be found near the end of the final mission. When approaching the chapel from the left side you should notice a small ledge on your right. Just like before, you will need McCoy to shoot the chicken.
