A redwood birdhouse is a trap setup for bird house trapping on Fossil Island. A redwood birdhouse is created by placing a redwood bird house item on a bird house space, which requires level 89 Hunter.
To arm the trap, players must fill the birdhouse with 10 low level or 5 high level hop seeds, herb seeds, flower seeds, bush seeds, or allotment seeds. When filled with seeds, the redwood birdhouse will passively fill with birds. After about 50 minutes, the redwood birdhouse will be full and can be collected for bird nests, raw bird meat, and feathers, as well as the clockwork used when crafting the item. Collecting the redwood birdhouse awards 1200 Hunter experience.

Loot
editOnce a birdhouse is full, it can be collected for loot, which includes raw bird meat, feathers, and the clockwork that was used to build the birdhouse.
Birdhouses will also give varying numbers of bird nests, dependent on the tier of birdhouse and Hunter level.[1] Each birdhouse will give at most 1 seed nest, followed by 10 chances to get nests off the nest table. The nest table drops regular empty nests, ring nests, egg nests, and rarely also clue nests.
In addition, wearing a strung rabbit foot will replace about 5% of the empty nest drops with ring nests or egg nests.[2] This is different from the bird nest mechanic while Woodcutting, which reduces the number of seed nests.
The seeds used do not affect amount of nests received.[3] Disassembling a birdhouse does not have a Hunter level requirement, meaning boosts only need to be used when placing birdhouses and not when disassembling them.
Using redwood birdhouses, the expected number of bird nests per run is 9.0924 at level 89 and 10.1408 at level 99.
Guaranteed drops
edit| Item | Quantity | Rarity | Price | High Alch | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Clockwork | 1 | Always | 1,005 | 300 |
 | Raw bird meat | 10[d 1] | Always | 460 | 100 |
 | Feather | 30; 40; 50; 60 | Always | 90–180 | 30–60 |
- ^ Always dropped to the ground, even if there is space in the inventory.
Seed nest
editAt most one seed nest is given per birdhouse. Having a higher Hunter level will make it more likely to obtain a seed nest.
| Item | Quantity | Rarity | Price | High Alch | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Bird nest (seeds) | 1 | Varies[d 1] | Not sold | 271 |
- ^ The rate depends on Hunter level.
Other nests
editThe nest table will be rolled 10 times. The chance of a successful roll is based on Hunter level, with more nests provided with a higher Hunter level[4]. The rate is constant at levels below 50.
Pre-roll clue nests
edit |
After a successful roll for the other nest table, an additional series of rolls is performed for clue nests. It is possible to obtain multiple clues from the same birdhouse, but once at least one clue has been awarded, further rolls do not attempt to give clues. Completing tiers of Combat Achievements will increase the rate of receiving easy, medium, hard, and elite clue nests. Clues are not awarded if the player already has a clue of that level.
The following rarities assume the nest roll shown above was successful, and are attempted once on each roll until a clue has been given (up to 10 attempts).
| Item | Quantity | Rarity | Price | High Alch | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Clue nest (elite) | 1 | ~1/1,500[d 1][d 2] | Not sold | 272 |
 | Clue nest (hard) | 1 | ~2/1,500[d 1][d 3] | Not sold | 271 |
 | Clue nest (medium) | 1 | ~3/1,500[d 1][d 4] | Not sold | 271 |
 | Clue nest (easy) | 1 | ~4/1,500[d 1][d 5] | Not sold | 270 |
 | Clue nest (beginner) | 1 | ~30/1,500[d 1] | Not sold | 270 |
