Interacting with the parrot in Leo's hut will cause it to squawk hints for more walnut locations. Hints update as the player progresses—quantities change to reflect only unfound walnuts, and hints to walnuts that have already been found no longer appear.

|At the upper right of the jungle is a hidden path. Following the stone path from Leo's house stairs leads to a hidden shrine area with four bird statues. Each bird statue is associated with a particular [[Ginger Island]] area, as hinted by the carved picture at its base (volcano = north, waves = south, palm tree = east, heart = west).<br/>
+
|Complete the [[Ginger Island#Gem Birds|Gem Birds]] puzzle to receive 5 walnuts. Image shows a final gem being placed on the pedestals.
 
 
On rainy days, a Gem Bird will appear in <b>one</b> of the island areas (North, South, East, or West). Approaching the Gem Bird will cause it to fly away and drop a gemstone. The player must place this gemstone on its corresponding altar.<br/>
 
 
 
The Gem Birds will always appear in the same locations:
 
<ul>
 
<li>North: Below the Island Field Office Tent.</li>
 
<li>East: In the middle of the path in the jungle towards Leo's hut.</li>
 
<li>South: To the bottom-left of the beach as you walk in from the docks.</li>
 
<li>West: To the left of the farm, right next to the pond.</li>
 
</ul>
 
 
 
There are five possible gems: [[Amethyst]], [[Aquamarine]], [[Emerald]], [[Ruby]], and [[Topaz]].
 
 
 
The shrine will activate and reward the player with 5 walnuts once the final gemstone is placed. Once activated, the puzzle cannot be completed to obtain more walnuts (though the altars may still, incorrectly, display plus signs while the player is holding a valid gem).<br/>
 
 
 
<i>(Note: The puzzle solution is randomized per game. Gem birds will still appear and drop gems on rainy days even after the puzzle is solved. The gem birds do not have to be found to solve the puzzle.)</i>

|After the farmhouse is repaired, the player may talk to the [[Ginger Island#Gourmand Frog|Gourmand Frog]]. The frog then asks the player to grow a [[Melon]], a [[Wheat]], and a [[Garlic]], in that order. When a crop is mature, leave it unharvested and talk to the frog again to show him the crop. The reward is 5 golden walnuts per crop. Harvest each crop after receiving its reward. The three crops yield a total of 15 walnuts.<br />  
  
<i>(Note: The three crops may be planted at the same time, but they cannot be harvested until the frog has seen them.)</i>

<i>Note: All three crops may be planted at any time, together or separately, but they must be presented to the frog in order one at a time and each crop can be harvested only after the frog has seen it and rewarded the player.</i>

Golden Walnut
Golden Walnut.png
To the parrots of Ginger Island, this nut is the finest delicacy.
Information
Source FarmingMiningForagingCombatFishingDigging • Breaking Golden Coconuts
Location Ginger IslandBlacksmith
"Parrots" redirects here. For the parrot found in Pelican Town, see Emily's 4-heart event.

Golden Walnuts are the currency of the parrots on Ginger Island. The number of Golden Walnuts that a player has saved is displayed directly underneath the Player's name in the Skills Tab. Walnuts are shared amongst players in Multiplayer.

The player can find a total of 130 Golden Walnuts scattered on the island by exploration, killing monsters, farming, fishing, mining, breaking crates in the Volcano Dungeon, etc.

After finding 100 Golden Walnuts:

Parrot Hints

Interacting with the parrot in Leo's hut will cause it to squawk hints for more walnut locations. Hints update as the player progresses—quantities change to reflect only unfound walnuts, and hints to walnuts that have already been found no longer appear.

5 Harvesting Each crop harvested on the Ginger Island farm, either by hand or with an Iridium Scythe, have a 5% chance of yielding a Golden Walnut, up to a total of 5. Only crops that do not regrow and do not require a Scythe to harvest will give Golden Walnuts.[2]
Walnut Harvest.png
15 Puzzle After the farmhouse is repaired, the player may talk to the Gourmand Frog. The frog then asks the player to grow a Melon, a Wheat, and a Garlic, in that order. When a crop is mature, leave it unharvested and talk to the frog again to show him the crop. The reward is 5 golden walnuts per crop. Harvest each crop after receiving its reward. The three crops yield a total of 15 walnuts.

Note: All three crops may be planted at any time, together or separately, but they must be presented to the frog in order one at a time and each crop can be harvested only after the frog has seen it and rewarded the player.

Golden Joja Parrot

Rotten Plant.png  Warning: Spoilers  Rotten Plant 2.png

This page or section contains unmarked spoilers from update 1.6 of Stardew Valley. Players may want to avoid or be cautious toward reading this article/section.

The Golden Joja Parrot

The Golden Joja Parrot can be paid gold to find all remaining Golden Walnuts the player has not found. It is located to the west of the volcano. It costs data-sort-value="10000">Gold.png10,000g per unfound nut. The player is warned that doing this will prevent the player from having the true Ginger Island Experience.

All remaining walnuts will be added after the player goes to sleep for the night.

Notes

  • The parrot in Leo's hut provides hints for 123 out of 130 walnut locations with the exception of:
    • 1 on the southern bush in the Gem Birds shrine area
    • 3 for placing a banana on the altar in the east, by the staircase to Leo's hut
    • up to 3 rewarded for winning the Darts Game.
  • If all of the walnuts associated with a hint are found on the same day that the hint was given, the parrot will remain silent for the rest of the day and will not give another hint until the next day.
  • When calculating Golden Walnuts needed to enter Qi's Walnut Room, the first Golden Walnut found is not counted, meaning the player must actually find 101 Golden Walnuts in total before unlocking the room.

Bugs

  • Occasionally, the game may miscount the number of Golden Walnuts obtained, leaving the count at 129/130, when all walnuts have actually been found. The workaround is to open a chat window (with ? or T on PC) and enter /recountnuts.
  • If the player has purchased all upgrades on Ginger Island for 116 Golden Walnuts, and has traded the rest for Qi Gems, they can use the chat window command /recountnuts to receive Golden Walnuts in the amount above 116 that they had earned before trading nuts for gems. This can be done infinitely, by trading all nuts for gems and then using the chat command.
  • Occasionally, the golden walnut north of the entrance to Qi’s Walnut Room may fly off screen when shaken (like a Garbage Can lid exploding, but without the sound) and not be counted as collected, making Perfection impossible. The only workaround is to ask the Golden Joja Parrot to find the walnut.
