This Merchant request will be available after you defeat the lake-monster boss, Del Lago. The Blue Note will be pinned to a wall near the dock, describing the objectives. Unfortunately, not much is given about the locations of the Gold Chicken Eggs in the note, but we have them covered in this guide.

The first Golden Egg is located on the east side of the lake. Take your boat to the small area that has minimal loot and a whole lot of chicken. You can find many eggs lying about on the ground (mostly white or brown) but there will be one Golden Egg. Search the grounds for a while and you can get your hands on the latter egg.

The Merchant shop is quite close to this location. Head up to the merchant to sell it and get your rewards. You can also consume it should you choose to, but considering its worth, it is better to sell it rather than waste it away.

Resident Evil 4 Remake allows limited backtracking on the map. But in the later chapters, some areas, like the lake, become inaccessible. So, it's better to get the Egg Hunt done before reaching the Church area. In case you haven't acquired it from the lake area, there is another location to complete this quest.

Going forward with the story, you will reach the castle area. Look for the throne room. The room also houses another one of the merchant's requests, the Disgrace of the Salazar Family, where you will have to tarnish a portrait by throwing eggs at it.

It is in this room where you will find a golden egg in a treasure chest in the rear corner. The chest will have to be opened with a Cubic Device to get the second golden egg. Just remember not to use the golden egg to complete the Disgrace of the Salazar Family side quest. Wait for the chickens in the room to lay a few eggs and use them instead.

This sums up the Egg Hunt Merchant request in the Resident Evil 4 Remake. After collecting the golden eggs, find the Merchant shop to complete the quest. You can sell these eggs to make fast money and get the three Spinels as a reward.
