Legendary Resistance (1/day). If the cockatrix fails a saving throw, she can choose to succeed instead.
Flyby. The cockatrix doesn't provoke an opportunity attack when she flies out of an enemy's reach.
Queen's Command. The cockatrix has advantage on an attack roll against a creature if at least one of the cockatrix's allies is within 5 feet of the creature and the ally isn't incapacitated. The cockatrix shares this feature with all cockatrice allies that can see the cockatrix, as long as the cockatrix is alive, and is not incapacitated.
Multiattack. The cockatrix makes three melee attacks, only one of which can be a bite attack.
Bite. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 12 (2d8 + 3) piercing damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 14 Constitution saving throw against being magically petrified. On a failed save, the creature begins to turn to stone and is restrained. It must repeat the saving throw at the end of its next turn. On a success, the effect ends. On a failure, the creature is petrified for 24 hours.
Talons. Melee Weapon Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 10 (2d6 + 3) slashing damage.

Description
The mother of all cockatrice-kind, the Cockatrix towers over the typical male cockatrice by several feet. A predator by every meaning of the word, the cockatrix prefers to let a small band of cockatrices hunt for her, bringing meals back to the nest in perfectly presevered petrified chunks. The cockatrix then strips the stony meat from the bones, leaving behind a petrified skeleton riddled with bite marks...
