Cluckboom

Cluckbooms (also called Bomb Chickens or simply Roosters) are chicken-like enemies that appear in Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2. They fly around and periodically drop explosive eggs.
== Description ==
Cluckbooms resemble chickens. They have green markings around their circular eyes, which have black pupils. Their wings are yellow, and the top of their head has a spiky mohawk-like comb. Their lower body doesn't have legs, forcing them to fly, instead having a cannon that can drop their bombs.
== History ==
=== Super Mario Galaxy ===
Cluckbooms first appear in Dusty Dune Galaxy. They lay egg bombs that explode a few seconds after landing. They can be brought to the ground by using a Star Spin in their vicinity or shooting them down with a Star Bit, causing them to lose control of their flight and plummet. Upon landing, they can be defeated with a ram for Star Bits or stomped on for a Coin. Some Cluckbooms show up after a certain event is activated and must be avoided as they drop their explosive eggs, when the event ends, the Cluckboom simply leaves.
=== Super Mario Galaxy 2 ===
Cluckbooms can be found in Slipsand Galaxy, where they behave the same as in the previous title. They once again drop explosive eggs on Mario/Luigi which must be avoided and just as before to beat a Cluckboom, Mario/Luigi must either ground it by shooting a Star Bit at it or by Star Spinning at it accurately. This will ground the Cluckboom allowing the plumbers to get a clear chance to finish it off.

==Trivia==
*The Cluckbooms attack patterns are similar too Coo Coos, a chicken species from Super Mario Sunshine, the Coo Coos drop blotches of Goop down which is similar to the Cluckboom's explosive egg attacks.
