Red Dead Redemption 2: All Exotics Locations


Red Dead Redemption 2 has 5 Exotics Quests, consisting of 19 Exotic Locations. They count as collectibles for 100% completion. To complete the Exotics in RDR2 you must first accept the Stranger Mission "Duchesses and other Animals" by Algernon Wasp in the north of Saint Denis. This becomes available in Chapter 4, after main mission "The Gilded Cage".

The quest giver will hand you a list of materials he needs. You can check this at any time in your Satchel (D-Pad Right) under Documents, Notes, Exotic Collector's List.


How Exotics Work

You will be given a series of 5 exotic quests in total. There are two types of exotics you'll have to collect: bird feathers and plants. The birds (egrets, herons, spoonbills) all spawn in the Bayou area near the quest giver as the maps in the guide below will show. The birds can be farmed in specific places where they spawn at day.

The plants are not too bad if you know exactly where they are located. They only spawn in a few specific places. These are marked with red dots in the Exotics Maps below. Go to these locations and use eagle vision L3 + R3 and you will easily spot them from afar. The plants have a blue "dust" around them in eagle vision. There are more of these plants than you need to fulfill the request and unlike birds they will always be there at any time.

After fulfilling an exotics request, return to Algernon Wasp to get the next one. You can keep track of how many exotic types you have completed by pressing (D-Pad Left) to open the log, or view them individually in your satchel (D-Pad Right).


Exotic Request 1

5 x Snowy Egret Plumes: There are 3 types of egrets (birds) and you need to skin them for their feathers. They all can spawn within the red zone marked on the below map at daytime (west side of the Bayou). Herons can also spawn there, which are needed for the second Exotic Request. It's by far the most reliable place to farm all Exotic Egrets. Getting all 15 Egret plumes takes about 1 hour in this spot. The best time to find them is at noon, so make a camp and advance time. They will be sitting all over this area. Use Deadeye to mark and kill them before they fly away. They die in one hit by any weapon. You can then see the "Carcass" symbol on the map and HUD which makes the bodies easy to find. To make them respawn, ride to Rhodes, fast travel to Emerald Station, make a camp to sleep as often as it lets you, then ride back to the farming spot. Repeat the process to farm all egret plumes in this area.

5 x Little Egret Plumes: There are 3 types of egrets (birds) and you need to skin them for their feathers. They all can spawn within the red zone marked on the below map at daytime (west side of the Bayou). Herons can also spawn there, which are needed for the second Exotic Request. It's by far the most reliable place to farm all Exotic Egrets. Getting all 15 Egret plumes takes about 1 hour in this spot. The best time to find them is at noon, so make a camp and advance time. They will be sitting all over this area. Use Deadeye to mark and kill them before they fly away. They die in one hit by any weapon. You can then see the "Carcass" symbol on the map and HUD which makes the bodies easy to find. To make them respawn, ride to Rhodes, fast travel to Emerald Station, make a camp to sleep as often as it lets you, then ride back to the farming spot. Repeat the process to farm all egret plumes in this area.

5 x Reddish Egret Plumes: There are 3 types of egrets (birds) and you need to skin them for their feathers. They all can spawn within the red zone marked on the below map at daytime (west side of the Bayou). Herons can also spawn there, which are needed for the second Exotic Request. It's by far the most reliable place to farm all Exotic Egrets. Getting all 15 Egret plumes takes about 1 hour in this spot. The best time to find them is at noon, so make a camp and advance time. They will be sitting all over this area. Use Deadeye to mark and kill them before they fly away. They die in one hit by any weapon. You can then see the "Carcass" symbol on the map and HUD which makes the bodies easy to find. To make them respawn, ride to Rhodes, fast travel to Emerald Station, make a camp to sleep as often as it lets you, then ride back to the farming spot. Repeat the process to farm all egret plumes in this area.

15 x Lady of the Night Orchids: These grow on trees, at fixed positions.


Exotic Request 2

20 x Heron Plumes: Herons are a type of bird. You need to skin them for their feathers. They all can spawn within the red zone marked on the below map (where you also found the egrets), only at day. At noon is the best time to find them. They will be sitting in that area. They die in one hit by any weapon. When you see flocks of birds flying together in the air, shoot down all of them! You can then see the "Carcass" symbol on the map and HUD which makes the bodies easy to find. To make them respawn, ride to Rhodes, fast travel to Emerald Station, make a camp to sleep as often as it lets you, then ride back to the farming spot. Repeat the process to farm all exotic Heron Plumes.

7 x Lady Slipper Orchids: These grow on the ground, at fixed positions.

10 x Moccasin Flower Orchids: These grow on the ground, at fixed positions.


Exotic Request 3

25 x Gator Eggs: These are the easiest on the list. There are gator egg nests at the swamps in the north and by the water in the south of the search area near Shady Belle (which is outlined in red, on the map below). The good thing is that each nest contains multiple eggs, usually between 3-5. So you only need to find around 6-7 nests. They are always near their fully grown parent alligators and always near water / swamp. Pretty easy to spot, in eagle vision ( L3 + R3 ) they got a golden shine on them. You may have already found these in your previous Exotic Quests while exploring the area.

3 x Acuna's Star Orchids: These grow on trees, at fixed positions.

7 x Cigar Orchids: These grow on trees, at fixed positions.

5 x Ghost Orchids: These grow on trees, at fixed positions.


Exotic Request 4

30 x Spoonbill Plumes: Spoonbills are a type of bird that spawn at noon in the area circled below. Like the other birds, the map below has their fixed spawn area where they can be farmed. Go there at noon, use Deadeye to slow down time, mark and kill all Spoonbills before they fly away. Skin them, ride to Rhodes, fast travel from Rhodes to Emerald Station, sleep as often as it lets you at your camp, return to the farming spot. Repeat this until you have 30 Spoonbill Plumes. There are about 5 of them sitting in this spawn zone on each visit.

5 x Night Scented Orchids: These grow on trees, at fixed positions.

10 x Rat Tail Orchids: These grow on trees, at fixed positions.

5 x Spider's Orchids: These grow on trees, at fixed positions.


Exotic Request 5

5 x Clamshell Orchids: These grow on trees, at fixed positions.

5 x Dragon's Mouth Orchids: These grow on the ground, at fixed positions.

5 x Queen's Orchids: These grow on the ground, at fixed positions.

10 x Sparrow's Egg Orchids: These grow on the ground, at fixed positions.


That's all 5 Exotic Requests in Red Dead Redemption 2 (RDR2). After completing the last one, return to the quest giver to check these collectibles off your 100% completion list.
