Broodwing Players & Bird Roster

Pick a species, join a family, and survive the valley together.

Last updated:

The Players Hub is your map to every playable bird, family role, and co-op loop in Broodwing by Realistics Studios. Broodwing is a free Roblox bird survival and family roleplay experience released on 21 October 2026. Servers hold up to 50 players. Currency is Plumes. You hatch or grow into a wild bird, fly the valley, gather food, claim a nest or hollow, lay eggs, and raise chicks with friends.

This hub focuses on who you play as and how families work, then routes you into the deep species guide. For codes and Plumes, see Codes. For first-hour setup, see Getting Started. Patch history lives under Updates. The full site map is on the Wiki Overview.

What this hub covers

  • The current bird roster and how roles differ (predator, scavenger, grazer, dabbler, night hunter, berry forager, cliff hunter)
  • Family and pack play: guardians, feeders, scouts, and chick care
  • Nest versus hollow versus scrape choices by species
  • Gamepass cosmetics that change look without rewriting the survival loop
  • Links into the full Playable Birds guide

Broodwing is online co-op first. Solo runs work, but nests last longer when one bird hunts, one guards, and one feeds. Treat every species page as a playstyle guide—balance still shifts when Realistics Studios ships new birds.

Families, eggs, and roleplay

Family play is player-driven. Form a pack around one nest, share hunting routes, and rotate guard duty when eagles or ravens pressure the area. You can join as someone’s egg from the menu after hatch, or start adult and invite friends into the brood. Player eggs show usernames; NPC eggs use generic labels—useful when you decide which chick to babysit.

Egg laying is gated by hunger and cooldowns. Feeding chicks spends your own food bar, so plan a loop: eat, return, feed, scan for predators, repeat. Keep eggs warm; awkward landings lose broods. Chicks grow into subadults and eventually leave—expect to raise a cycle, not a permanent flock.

Role ideas that work well in 50-player servers:

  1. Guardian — adult eagle or large bird covering the nest approach.
  2. Provider — mallard, goose, raven, or cardinal running food routes.
  3. Scout — raven or falcon checking predator paths before the family moves.
  4. Chick sitter — stays near eggs while others forage.

Gamepasses and cosmetics

Cosmetics do not replace skill, but they mark rare looks in crowded servers. Community pricing commonly cited for launch-era passes includes Leucistic Bald Eagle around 450 Robux, duck color passes around 250 Robux each, and Leucistic Black Swan around 400 Robux. Always confirm the live Roblox store before buying. For free Plumes that fund early nest materials, redeem active codes on Codes.

How to use this section

  1. Skim the roster table above and pick a role that matches how you like to play.
  2. Read Playable Birds for food, nest, and growth detail on every species.
  3. Cross-check recent patch notes under Updates so you know which prey, hollows, or berry bushes are live.
  4. Bookmark Getting Started if you still need controls and first-hour goals.

When a new bird ships, this hub stays the index; the birds page and the matching update article get the deep dive. Start with the species guide, then bring a friend into the nest.
