The Tex Flamingo, Sgt. Drake, and Budge (Birds of a Feather) skins in Fortnite were introduced in Chapter 5 Season 1 with the update v28.10. The characters in question seem to hail from a reality wherein birds have evolved to walk upright. They've also somehow become fashionable, sporting colors that co-relate to birds found on Earth - 616 (that's where we exist).

Tex Flamingo is the evolved version of a flamingo, while Sgt. Drake and Budge are a duck and chicken respectively. It is unclear how they found their way to the Metaverse, but they are a colorful bunch. They even have their very own LEGO Styles. This means that you can all three characters while exploring the numerous LEGO Fortnite Odyssey seeds that are out there.

Here's how you can get the Tex Flamingo, Sgt. Drake, and Budge (Birds of a Feather) skins in Fortnite Chapter 6 Season 1.
