From Witcher Wiki
A Cockatrice is an ornithosaur.
|
"Cockatrices are born of eggs laid by roosters consorting with other roosters. The egg must be incubated for forty-four days by a toad, which is devoured by the little beast as soon as it hatches. A cockatrice hates everything that lives so fiercely that its glance turns the living to stone. Only a bold adventurer with a mirror can deflect its deadly gaze and defeat the cockatrice."

- Their remains will not contain their feathers until you have this bestiary entry.
- The The Beast of the Sewers encountered as part of the Prison Break quest is a Greater cockatrice, and therefore different from the creature described above. It's also one of the two Trophy Quests in Act II, and the only story-required trophy quest in the whole game.
