Gigant Chicks

Gigant Cox is a trio of large enemies in Kirby: Triple Deluxe. It only appears in Stage 1 of Old Odyssey and Stage 8 of Royal Road.

Physical Appearance
The group Gigant Cox is composed of three giant, spherical roosters. Each has a short beak, two feet, a large tail, and an enormous wingspan. Their eyes are yellow with oval pupils. The birds come in three colors: green, turquoise, and purple. Each rooster wears a different style and color of bow tie.

Behavior
When Kirby finds Gigant Cox, the birds screech in rage and attack him one at a time. Using the Hypernova ability, the pink puff can yank gargantuan turnips out of the ground, launching them into the air -- one hit from a flying turnip will defeat the bird struck.

The green rooster attacks first. He hovers in the top-right corner of the screen, regularly spitting Air Bullets at the hero. The bird cannot hit him if he runs to the right side of the screen. When hit by a turnip, the rooster's feathers will fly off, and he will plummet off the stage into a pit.

The turquoise rooster attacks second. He flies back and firth between the top-left and top-right corners. He quickly spits two Air Bullets at Kirby before swooping across the screen again. Like the green rooster, the blue rooster will lose his feathers and plummet when hit by a turnip.

The purple rooster attacks last. Rather than swooping across the screen to switch sides, he circles the area, occasionally spitting three consecutive Air Bullets or a trio of Air Bullets at once. Like the previous two birds, he will lose his feathers when hit struck by a turnip. Unlike the others, however, the purple rooster will hit the screen and slide down it to his doom.
