Our strategy for Poached Eggs level 3-19 is to fire the Red bird head-on into the stones supporting the last helmet pig. The bird will roll backwards onto the solitary TNT in the middle of the level, eventually triggering the trio of TNT on the left. Launch the next Red bird into the boulder in the top-right, which triggers the last TNT and pops the mustachioed pig. Use the Yellow bird to detonate the final TNT. The score in the video below is 67,560.
Version 2022:
This method got me above average (which was difficult to do).
1. Direct hit on boulder on far right. The explosion pushes the far tower to the left.
2. Skid across the rectangular stone piece on the first building, to hit the trio TNT batch. The shockwaves cause the thin stone structure to fall on the next TNT. The tower on the right falls and if lucky, makes the TNT in it explode.
3. Cleanup bird (if needed)
Thanks to everyone who helped me get above average in PE! Next up, MH! :)
Kart, thanks for the extremely, helpful strategy! :)I almost had a one bird, but I’ll settle for this.:)
@kartflyer Ohhh thank you lol. 5 days and like 87 different methods then finally your method works :) It actually happened in one bird though I have no idea how… Thank you :)
Same on chrone, I think red hits the TNT then all slowly explode. 87450.
I was following @Kartflyer, sort of, and got a 1-birder for 93010. Thanks Kartflyer! The only difference is that I started out aiming too low, so the red bird hit the wood planks under the rock. I noticed that sometimes the planks as well as the rock were destroyed, leaving a slightly higher score than a direct hit on the rock. I went back to aiming for the wood blocks, and my first score higher than average was this excellent 1-birder! Wow!
also following @kartflyer strat (ty for a really good strat) and also got a 1birder for a score of 90930. Can’t remember how to put up a link but if anyone would like to see the angle of the shot there is a photo in my album
Thanks to @kartflyer for a great solution! I used this and abandoned ship after a while thinking it wouldn’t work but thanks to the comments here I resumed and got an 83880. The one birder all seems to hinge on whether the tower with the helmeted pig collapses so that the wood on the LHS falls on the TNT with enough force to detonate it. I got a one birder but only with a high 70’s score.
It seems logical (to me anyway) that if you start on the LHS with the three TNT’s that the shrapnel should all fly to the right and that would perhaps be a better approach but I’ve not made much headway with it!
I got 81010 with nearly the same methode as the video above. The first bird I shot different, but the result is the same. The second bird I got lucky, it rolled back on top of the Pig.
Here’s the video
E, I know you like 1-b’s; so > on Full Screen, pointer where rock at touches Left Side and bounce RB off the back wall, RB goes down to right side TNT, the rock at the back might not look like it’s moving, but wait a few secs. [Low Score, but pretty good 1B!]
This is pretty much what I was doing. I can’t seem to trigger that last tnt without using all 3 birds though.
@E-star I finally did it like your video. I have played this level for days and could not get the two bird solution or an above average score. Patience and persistance to come back to a level that one cannot get will eventually overcome the obstacle and win. This is a feel good moment. Wow!
Still way behind your awesome score, @E-Star, but this strat put me above the average- and that’s my goal right now. Thank you yet again! (-:
I really got lucky and got a one-border with this method. I accidentally skipped red bird over the top of the two vertical cement pieces. Red bird continued to bounce up and hit the pig to the right. The explosion of the tnt got the pig at the bottom under the wood supports. One of those vertical cement pieces flew over and hit the boulder. The falling cement pieces fell to the left and set off the tnt that got the other two pigs on the left. I couldn’t duplicate it to get a better score so I’m happy and moving on.
Same strategy. It’s possible total destruction with just 1 bird. 91210!
100k? How much destruction can you get?
1 shot – 100,240 http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/8710/100ah.jpg
@tnatiuk17piano, how do you even get 96k? I think I’m a fairly good shooter, and have played this one a lot. No matter how I hit the first bird, the only way the right top TNT explodes, is if I bounce off the middle structure, and fly through the small piece of cement right in front of it, which only happens very rarely. Never has the big ball caused enough damage to the right-most structure to even do any danger to that TNT. This obviously has to be a one-birder, I just am not seeing it.
@pointdexter5, these 1-birder scores are indeed rare. There might be some strats contributing to these but in my case it took a MONSTROUS amount of luck, GIGANTIC amount of perseverance, and MOUNTAINOUS effort to feel my flinging fingers back upon completion… LOL (seriously, i’m in my third day with this level when i finally got above 90k).
My session went somewhat like :
1. Red directly to the boulder at the top right (a la @kartflyer) in a way that it’ll bounce back (preferably) on the corner of the “floating – upside down letter L” platform, bounce again on top of the helmet pig (without killing it), and fall down to the wooden platform below.
2. Meanwhile, the boulder will fall to the right, descending down the slope, and detonate the TNT (killing the grandpa pig). The explosion must be strong enough to tilt the wooden platform we mentioned above leftward.
3. If the platform tilted far enough, Red will roll down to hit the TNT on the ground, sending the small stone to the right of said TNT to kill the pig near it, with the other small stone up and to the left, toppling the stone structure just beside it. This will explode the group of three TNTs, killing both pigs nearby, and sending debris in all direction, including to the last TNT with a pig on top, the one that should be our first “victim”, hehehe… :D
Trev (@tnatiuk17piano) might confirm these… :)
One-birder, going exactly like @birdjo described for 101k. Hit boulder low.

thx to @kartflyer and @birdjo for the strat. and details
here my video:
https://youtu.be/8ZhdhpZ5adI
Interesting one birder:
took a shot on the TNT with the helmet pig on it. Try to hit vertical stone wall exactly into the sweet point, means just under the horizontal stone. Structure fell to the left and made middle TNT explode. Some debris went further left making the triple TNT explode. Luckyly one piece of debris went to the right in a high arch and touched the big boulder which fell to the right making last TNT explode and over it was!
That’s an interesting strat. However, I’m finding that it doesn’t seem to work the same way every time. Every so often, it seems that in utilizing this strat, the far left helmet pig only gets rolled out of his starting position without being destroyed, and the Rube Goldberg reaction tends to come to a screeching halt at that point.
I can’t crack the 80k mark here..): I 1 birded this level twice with a high of only 72k . I 2 birded this level too many times to count and haven’t been able to break my 78k high, which I did with 3 birds. Very frustrating level for me. …
Well sometimes all it takes is a post to change your luck. As soon as I posted I got my 80k score. (: … Got it with 2 birds, using the video method with the 1st bird which luckily killed all the pigs except the last one on the right. 81900 is what I’m settling with here. Moving on…
This is quite different from the one in the guide.
First, shoot the red bird at the horizontal stone block on the small tower of stone blocks between the first and second TNTs, which will stumble the tower over the right and the red bird will fall back to the left and kill the 2 pigs there. If lucky, the red bird will fly over to the last helmet pig and kill it, along with pushing the boulder there. If not, continue on. Note that if the second-to-last helmet pig doesn’t die at this time, it will be quite a challenge on the next steps to finish this level. Next, shoot the red bird at the 2 wood blocks under the boulder if the previous red bird did not kill the rightmost helmet pig. If it did, fling right at the boulder instead to make sure that it is able to push the boulder. Use the final yellow bird and shoot at the wooden parts below the rightmost TNT to kill all the remaining pigs, or to rack up some more points if there are still plenty of blocks.
Score: 68,180 using this strategy.
Although the scores seem low, it is quite easier to do than many of the strategies for this level.
I found this a surprisingly tough level to crack. I have no idea how the average is so high! I was pretty sure I wasn’t going to be able to get above it, but then using E-star’s first shot, which worked exactly as in her video, a flying piece of debris just happened to hit the boulder, sending it off to the left and back into the rightmost TNT. This meant that only the helmet pig on the right was left and the structure it sat on was tilted, so hitting the wood in the middle of it was enough to tilt it further and detonate the TNT for a 74k two-birder.
I finally got that much coveted 1-birder, but only 79,680 points, 4k higher than my previous high score.
I noticed I got the best bounce back from red bird when striking low on the boulder. See the trajectory here:
http://angrybir.de/VvhJtT
Good luck :)
Woo hoo! Finally a decent 1-birder shooting for a direct hit to the boulder!
I shudder to think how many hours I have devoted to this level off and on over the past year….
@bonneypattycat I feel your pain when finally…. achieving the coveted 1-birder for such low points. Mine was even worse. When here for the Challenge I managed my first 1-birder for even fewer points; mine was 77890, which was 1770 LESS than my best 2-birder. Instead of aiming to the high or top of the boulder, I’d aimed lower, more to where the bottom wooden block meets the ledge it’s sitting on. The red bird eventually bounced down & left to set off the TNT as the boulder slowly rolled to the right & down. I was so very disappointed to see such a low score. It’s just not right .. LOL. Some how I don’t think that’s what’s supposed to be happening here : – (
Hang in there @justpast40! In the past, I spent a huge amount of time pursuing other strategies without any luck at all, only a few close calls for a score around 100k. I finally dedicated my time to the boulder and it didn’t take terribly long to get a lower scoring 1-birder. I had several last night, each one increasing my score until I got close to 94k. I will try a bit longer today, hopefully the pattern will continue!
@justpast40 my best 1-bird clear on this one is a spectacular 73k. I was so happy to see everything clear with 1 shot only to have my hopes dashed seconds later. It happened differently, I flung the 1st bird at the stone “H” in the middle (I’ve been trying all sorts of approaches in this one) which exploded both the pile of 3 TNTs & the next one along. Somehow one of the stone planks from the H flew up & knocked the boulder over, which fell down to set the rest of the TNT off & clear the pigs. Too bad I couldn’t score better, so far all I’ve got is 78k with 2 birds.
@bonneypattycat congrats on your awesome score! I thought I was ready to wave a white flag at this one but maybe I’ll have to keep going.
@bonneypattycat & @karen68 thank you so much for your encouraging words, unfortunately they have yet to improve the aim of my flinging finger past a 2-birder of 80870
This is one level that shows a lot of promise, as a 1-Birder or 2-Birder solution seems highly probable, so I’ll definitely come back for round 3 later tonight.
Thx 4 the 3 star walkthrough! I really needed it as my mighty eagle was
Taking a break. I got 89, 569! Thankyou angrybirdsnest.com!
2birds strategy.
First bird same @kartflyer.
Second bird aim TNT.
I never had good luck of 1-birder…

This is the same strat as several others,and begun by @kartflier ,but I do have an aiming point that works pretty well to increase the chances of a one birder. Aim that first shot at the very bottom of the big boulder, right where the bolder and the board meet. Chances are good that the RB will bounce back over the helmet pig and set off the TNT. It never seems to work if you pop the pig as then the RB doesn’t roll to the TNT. Of course a lot has to happen just right after that. The pig that causes the most problems is the right hand helmet pig. On my score of 84,000 the structure under the helmet pig slowly collapsed and popped the pig, but didn’t quite set off the TNT. Had that gone off, my score would have been much better.
There are a number of scores here over 100k. Are they really legit Slim?
@steviep147 Yes, from Google Plus or Chrome.
@r-l-l You quite rightly asked how I managed this score and I can see from my own comment here that I was asking the same question in May 2014! Why I never posted a screenshot, when it was so close to top score I don’t know. Anyway, here it is (from January 2015) for you and anyone else who may be interested. A One Bird effort. A very lucky one bird I now see! On a iPad I’m almost certain.

Point of order on this one. That pig on the far left will surely die if there’s nothing at stake. However the minute it looks like you could be on for a juicy one birder he defends his piggy honour and is guaranteed to survive a bricking more severe than that Oliver Hardy gets in the famous fireplace scene. Just needed to get that off my chest.
😂. I gave this a go on BlueStacks, newish iPhone and my very old iPad. Couldn’t even make 90k. Well done to @skowse for doing so.
I got a few 90s…. almost got a 97 but for that one on the left. I’m throwing to bounce of the top of the 2nd thin upright gray plank thing in the middle. that structure falls to right and tnt throws some of that structure to boulder up top. @steviep147
structure falls left not right!
It seems like we’re pursuing the same strategy with similar results @skowse.When it flicks off the top of the H Red can set off the tnt second from right leading to a chain reaction demolishing the level. 92300 my best so far. But like you had 98k sitting there but for our friend on the left.
2nd effort using @skowse strategy. In this instance, the left pig left, but the right pig was the pig in the ointment…
https://angrybir.de/3vERqvy
Got a 97 with this strategy
You’re on fire at the moment @skowse have you recently retired and found yourself at a loose end? Seriously though you’ve had some good puppies in recent weeks, especially in Seasons. That one in Egg Snatchers a short while back was one of the best puppies in a long while imho. Good shooting.
We’re definitely on the same tramlines tonight @skowse. 98860k.Same strat.
