The quest's own structured objectives. How many of each you need is set by the game when you accept it, so it is not stored here – the sentence above is the quest's own wording.
The quest giver's words
The Haal'eshi arakkoa have domesticated a beautiful bird species called the kaliri.
I've managed to capture a young male and they appear to be trainable. The females are much rarer, but if I had one I could attempt to breed them. She has to be young, though... a hatchling. An older wild bird wouldn't survive in captivity.
Take this cage and travel south, to the Den of Haal'esh. Search the nests for eggs that are ready to hatch. If you bring me back a female hatchling, I'll reward you handsomely.
Progress
You've returned. Did you bring me the kaliri female?
Completion
You did it! You caught a female hatchling!
She's precious. You have my thanks, <name>.

By character level

A bonus of your own (a guild perk, a holiday) comes on top.
The listed figures and the players here disagree, so both are shown rather than one picked.
- Experience: players were paid 10% more than the 10,050 listed. An experience bonus (heirlooms, a guild perk) pays more; a character well above the quest's level earns less.

What players recorded
Everything below this line is a different kind of knowledge from everything above it. Above: what the quest is, the same on every realm. Below: what actually happened when people played it, uploaded by them, with the number of runs printed against every figure. It is an observation, not a fact about the quest.
This guide rests on 1 completed run. That is enough to show where people went and not enough to trust the timings – treat them as one player's evening.
How precise this guide is
Early guide Built from 1 run by 1 player – low confidence. Every upload of this quest sharpens it: the hotspots tighten, the order and the timings settle, and the parts below unlock as the sample grows.
- Where to go – pick-up, objectives and hand-in available
- Typical time and objective order – median and middle half needs 3 completed runs (now 1) not yet
- Tips – what most players do needs 5 runs (now 1) not yet
- Where players die – death hotspots on the map needs 5 characters from at least 2 different people (now 1 from 1) not yet
Timings
Based on 1 completed run. Published by the analyser – low confidence.
Same 1 run; mean 52 min 26 s.
Counting every recorded attempt, finished or not.
0 tracked kills, typically 11,055 XP, done around level 60.
The route
An early route: drawn from the first runs and sharper with every upload. Pick-up, hand-in and the objective hotspots are where the quest is, so they are shown from the first run.
Map coordinates are the addon's own 0–1 zone coordinates (Hellfire Peninsula), origin top-left, x to the right and y downward. Drag the zone map to pan, ctrl/⌘ + scroll or the buttons to zoom; the grid lines are tenths of the zone.
- hotspot centroid (numbered by weight)
- where players were
- pick up
- turn in
- where players die – not published yet
Where they happened is shown once at least 5 characters from at least two different people have done this quest (now 1 from 1): unlike the route, a death spot is about the player, not the quest.
