A good strategy for Poached Eggs level 1-2 is to bounce the first red bird off the back hill so it bounces back and hits the tallest pedestal. This should cause a domino effect taking out all the pigs and leaving you with 40,000 bonus points. The score in the video below is 61,110.
If you have a different strategy feel free to leave a comment below; however, don't just post your score via the comments, as that's what the leaderboards are for.

I have seen some high score videos with nearly 63,000 points. The score was achieved by skipping the bird off the head of all the first three pigs, breaking at least two or three wood blocks in the process. I don’t think this was done on iPhone. I believe this technique is impossible on iPhone. I’ve tried it a million times. So, it looks like 62,080 will be the highest I’m going to be able to achieve with the standard technique.
You can actually do this skipping thing (it’s more rolling though), it’s just going in reverse (highest first). Ain’t gotten enough time yet to do this, though :S
I kinda almst did it in reverse but missed last piggie..ended up copying video.at least I matched my old score:)
I like that level.it’s like dominos
If the red bird can hit the piece of wood on the tall pole off the rebound it seems to produce more energy when hitting the lower pig and some results in breaking one piece of wood. Used the same strat as in the video.
There is also another strategy of bouncing the first red bird to the left of the tall pole. The bird bounces up to take out the tall pole and the pig and then bounces back to the left to take out the other three pigs. It worked twice but did not produce a higher score than what is posted.
Tips for eagle destruction on Chrome:
- Not too hard. Break the FAR RIGHT HORIZONTAL wood block with 1 of your birds. Then launch the can at the wood block in the front. Destroyed everything 5 times in a row.
- You can also just knock everything over as if you were getting 3 stars then lob the can in the front, note that the can mighty go in some crazy place.
It would be easier if you did the first step just like the video, and then launch the sardine can horizontally.
I went for a higher approach like the video shown and hit 61,000 right on the money.

Power ups change a lot of the top scores now… Just a simple shake on this level beat the previous high score by a lot…
Power up scores are not permitted.
Just saw that… so glad for the undo feature. This is gonna get to be a pain on the devices though because I don’t know which scores are without powerups.
We are working on more separation regarding that.
+62.xxx score is very repeatable with a “soft lob” to top of the first “T”. I haven’t broken 63K yet but @DonnMega has shown It can be done. And yes it can be done on IPhone to even if the “soft lob” is easier to execute on IPad.

Is 71k possible on this level without powerups?
I’ve been trying the “head-skipping” technique without complete success, but it’s a fun one to try.
No it’s not. 70k+ is only possible with Birdquake. I’ll take care of these scores.
Why I cant leave my score? it’s 70780 with birdquake…

I got 65k without Birdquake and 71040 with Birdquake
