Unlocking the mission
You can unlock this side quest after you first reach Patriotas Peak, which is a guerrilla hideout in El Este. This takes place during operation Meet the Legend.
At the camp, you need find the interactive note and read it. This way, you will unlock the Yaran story.
Talk to Reinaldo
Reinaldo Alvarez can be found on a farm southeast of the guerilla camp. Once there, you will watch a cut-scene in which Chicharron the rooster will also appear. He will be able to become your Amigo/pet in the future, but will need to complete a total of 3 quests first (this quest and two more).
Meet with Chicharron
Without your help, the rooster will reach the new enemy location marked on the map, which is the Vacia Coast Military Kennels. Once there, you need to approach Chicharron and then start following him.
Use the side lever to open the way for the rooster.
Protect Chicharron
The rooster will be regularly attacked by hostile guard dogs and you have to stop them from attacking him too often. Chicharron's health bar is in the upper left corner of the screen and you can't let it drop to 0% or you will fail the mission.
In addition to directly attacking enemy dogs, you can also distract them by shooting at targets and activating mock-up targets. This sometimes causes them to switch their attention to the dummy, making them an easy target for your and Chicharron's attacks.
You must fight until all the dogs have been dealt with - more will be released from their kennels in "waves", giving you the opportunity to heal or reload your weapon.
Vandalize the water tower
After winning the battle, listen to Reinaldo's comments and head off towards the nearby water tower. Climb to the roof of the cages that used to contain the dogs, then look up and use the climbing kit on the interactive hook.
Once you are at the top, walk up to the wall of the water tower and press the interaction button to automatically cover it in graffiti. You will complete the current quest, but you will also immediately unlock the second story related to Chicharron - The Pecking Order.
