Boss: Hookbill the Koopa
Each time you hit the egg on its head, its body will rise, and it will flip over after four hits. Then, pound the ground on its belly to attack before it gets up. When you deal damage, it will bounce off the ground and attack. To avoid this, try to stay as far away as possible or flutter jump high after the recoil from pounding the ground. You can defeat it after pounding the ground three times.
It will spit out an egg if you step on its head, so to replenish your eggs.
