Our strategy for Poached Eggs level 2-14 is to fire the White bird and bomb just right of the triplet of watermelons. The explosion should cause the two carts to move, eventually popping the far-left pig and larger pig on the right. Loft a White bird as far as possible, bombing the small pig at the extreme right. The score in the video below is 50,180.
Debut: This level is the debut of the White Bird, whose real name is “Matilda”. She drops an egg bomb and flies off at a tangent when activated. She is best when both bomb and recoil create damage. She was the original bird used in “Bloated Bird Technique”; i.e., flinging a bird into a structure without activating its ability. She can also be used to “shoot the moon,” but not used as often as Yellow.
Version 2022:
A 1-bird strategy is possible. Aim at the same point as the video – just to the right of 3 melons, but use a very high arcing shot. Just before the w/b hits, drop the egg. With ridiculous amounts of luck, the w/b will bounce through the engine and be slowed just enough to hit the rightmost pig.
Not easy – but I did replicate the shot (after 100’s of attempts)
That’s all well and good, that is, if you have ridiculous amounts of luck. But, for us mere mortals, well…… :-)
This mere mortal got it with one too. However, I didn’t use a high arc, I went with a short close lob of the w/b, dropped the egg close to impact and it skipped over and hit the far right structures.
Not easy, but easier than leaving the far right pig intact. Gave me the above average score I was lookng for.
Same aim as the video, but had more luck! Got a one birdie!
Here’s my video
@e-star – your video’s helped me at least 10 times today – thanks for putting these out there – you deserve the helping hand badge you got!
Thx estar once again I got above avg with your video in mind!! I loooove you!!! ;)
@e-star, I got me a 1-Birder too just like yours, but as usual, The Nordic Gods were looking the other way, so my score came out a little lousy.
same as Rhyl only not yet lucky with one birdie
i got now 55,190
Used the ABN video and two birds. Helps if the white birds come in low and do some other damage if luck be with you.
Did a one-bird strategy like in e-star’s video but the score was in the 56k area.
A one-birder is possible if you use the method in the video but aim the white bird low so it just skims over the melons. Then it bounces off the cab of the engine and into the pig on the far right.
For me, this has been the most consistent way of getting the right pig. Even if the white bird carcass doesn’t hit the right pig, sometimes it will just upset the whole right side enough the pig will still end up getting popped.
Wow? Noone else found my solution? 66170, trying to get 70k, First on leaderboard so easily. Just throw it right before first cart, its egg will get you some score, as well as kill 1-2 pigs, and then bird will fly flat to the right, killing the rest. If necessary, use second one for last one.
@omegha, very nice score! Have you been able to repeat this 1-birder strategy? I will have to give it a try :)
Okay, I only tried this about 50 times, once getting a 1-birder for 56k, and close calls between 59-61k. I can see getting higher scores, but for now it is beyond my reach.
Oh, to be honest I’ve used two birds, IIRC. That gave me some points more, but I believe it’s all about luck. Anyways – why my points are removed? I wasn’t using powerups or anything, how can one judge if I am telling truth?
Try posting a screenshot of the level that contains the score. You have already provided a strategy.
Also, come to think of it, is this the only score you added? You need to add other scores to some other levels as well.
Good flinging. Unfortunately, your score cannot be entered here since Facebook scores are not permitted for Poached Eggs and Mighty hoax. Sorry.
Oh, that explains everything then. Too bad. Thanks anyways.
Used all 4 birds….Took out piG & wagon on far right, Split the cart/train with 2nd shot. Used last 2 birds to clean up. No power used on Facebook. 67K!!
@terribletom, I understand higher scores are more easily possible on Facebook than on iOS, Android, and PCs. I imagine that is why Facebook scores are not permitted here.
@bonneypattycat Hi There!! I do realize that!! I was just providing any help/strategies, that would assist others. Nothing more. If it is all the same (levels/themes)…I didn’t see any harm in providing some input (and the levels I did provide strategies for…NO Powerups were used!!!)
Best Regards,
Um, yes, but if the strategy only yields higher scores on Facebook, I don’t see the point in the strategy or in advertising your Facebook scores here.
I got lucky with a version of the first strategy mentioned here: aim WB to just miss melons and try to drop bomb at last minute to hit train so WB bounces onto last piglet. After a week I got very lucky… now what am I going to do with my life? level 1-7 of course….
1 birdie, 65k. 1 in 3 chance
1. drop the egg between the little pig and the 3 watermelons.
With v5.0.0 this level does some self-destroying. After reset, about half the time the train starts rolling on its own. This can take out the farthest two pigs leaving an easy one bird shot for 60K.
Yes I noticed the train caboose also, but happens more than 50% and it takes out anywhere from 1 to 3 pigs on the right and also leaves a larger gap between it and the melon cart. Should make 1 bird strategy even easier :)
Whatever version I have now the train is 100% stable. had to get a new phone my old score was 58440 but managed to get a bit higher with some persistence.
ok heres another one i got another highscore on that is a considerable gap. is this version different? v5.1.0? screenshot of this one too..proof that the score was with no power ups. just gotta figure out how to post the screenshots
high arc, activate right from the 3 watermelons
here a video with 61k:

I always thought the white bird is a male. Looks like it in the game, even though he lays eggs.
Ok so I got this score using Classics. It was done as a one birder. The 1st bird you use to aim at the middle of the two carts. That should split the carts in both directions scoring a good amount of points. And if your lucky enough, you might be able to get all the pigs with one bird. The left cart will take out the left pig, and the right cart will take out all the pigs on the right. The other birds will be added up of a score of 30000. I have the screenshots down below.

@discobeaks impressive one bird score! Best I can do so far with one bird is 65k, though I did manage 66k with two birds. The trick seems to be to get Matilda to damage both the engine and the two loose cars on the right.
@hallieginsb Thanks for the compliments you’ve given me lately! I’m glad I’m helping you increase your scores higher! I always like to supply how the level was done, and the screenshots if it’s a record score. I’m planning to see how far I can get just on Poached Eggs right now. There’s still many levels I’m working on. Some levels are a bit difficult and it’s been years since some of the records I’ve seen been broken. I have some levels on mind that have records with no proof that I will try and get. And as always I will continue to have proof with my screenshots if I break a record score! Again thanks so much that my info and screenshots have really helped you out!!!
@discobeaks you clearly have skills with Classics and I’m glad your are sharing your success on ABN. Yes, definitely go after those top scores with no score proof! I look forward to seeing your progress.
Finally got the one-birder in Classics.
Score proof: https://angrybir.de/3jX0r10
Argh, pig on left just failed to die, would have scored just under 70k. So it is possible.
68689/1
It was coming. You need to get Matilda carcass to drop on the right hand pigs after exploding in the middle.
Link to come.
