Managing magical creatures and upgrading gear are essential mechanics for players exploring Hogwarts Legacy. Among the various shops located in Hogsmeade, Brood and Peck serves as the primary hub for purchasing rare beast materials and selling rescued animals for Galleons. Understanding where to find this shop and how to access its inventory helps streamline gear progression throughout your journey.
Where to Find Brood and Peck in Hogsmeade
Brood and Peck is situated in the northern section of Hogsmeade, just past the central town square. Players can easily reach the store by fast-traveling to the North Hogsmeade Floo Flame and walking across the nearby bridge. The shop is positioned right near the northern water edge, making it simple to spot on the map.
Visiting the location early in the game may reveal a locked store front. Players must advance through the main storyline before the proprietor opens the doors for business.
How to Unlock Brood and Peck
The shop remains inaccessible until players complete the main story quest titled The Elf, the Nab-Sack, and the Loom. During this quest, Deek introduces the mechanics of capturing beasts and using the Room of Requirement.
Once the quest concludes, Brood and Peck automatically opens its doors in Hogsmeade. Players can then visit proprietor Ellie Peck to trade items or buy essential crafting supplies whenever needed.
Key Features and Available Beast Materials
Ellie Peck stocks a wide variety of beast materials required for upgrading gear traits at the Enchanted Loom. Players can purchase items like Jobberknoll feathers, Puffskein fur, Mooncalf fur, and Kneazle fur directly from the counter.
These materials provide a convenient alternative for players who haven't yet rescued specific beasts in the wild. However, rare items such as Phoenix feathers are excluded from the shop's stock and must be obtained through alternate means.
Selling Rescued Beasts for Galleons
Beyond buying materials, Brood and Peck acts as a reliable commercial outlet for selling extra beasts captured across the Highlands. Ellie Peck purchases any rescued creature for a flat rate of 120 Galleons.
The selling price remains identical regardless of the species or whether the creature is a rare shiny variant. Utilizing this feature provides players with a consistent source of income for purchasing expensive spellcrafts and recipes.
