How to get Tex Flamingo, Sgt. Drake, and Budge skins in Fortnite

Tex Flamingo, Sgt. Drake, and Budge are some of the most unique characters to be introduced to Fortnite. These birds of a feather sure do flock together, as they were added simultaneously during Chapter 5 Season 1. These skins are somewhat sought after as they take character design back to the good old days when cosmetics were goofy in nature.

Although they might not be the best skins to use to gain a competitive advantage, having your teammates dress up as oversized birds is rather amusing. So, here's how to get Tex Flamingo, Sgt. Drake, and Budge skins in Fortnite.

With Fortnite Chapter 5 Season 2 fast approaching, Tex Flamingo, Sgt. Drake, and Budge Skins will not stay in the Item Shop for long. They will likely be rotated out over the course of the weekend.

As these skins are not exclusive, they will be featured again sometime during the next season. However, the exact time is difficult to tell as the final decision rests with Epic Games. If you're interested in purchasing the Birds of a Feather Bundle later, keep an eye on the Item Shop.
