The Chicken Cannon in action. Note its excessively large explosion radius. Additionally note the right click detonating the rocket in midair.

The Chicken Cannon is a post-Moon Lord launcher that is dropped by Yharon, Dragon of Rebirth. It rapidly fires chicken rockets that bounce up when hitting the ground, then explode with a very large radius and inflict the Dragonfire debuff. The explosion lingers for a few seconds and ignores immunity frames. Right-clicking while any rockets are still in the air causes them to instantly explode.

Its best modifier is Unreal.

Notes

• The Chicken Cannon's explosions only deal 50% damage to XM-05 Thanatos and 15% damage to Supreme Witch, Calamitas' Supreme Soul Seekers.
