Scrappy the Rooster is your faithful companion in ARC Raiders, and you can upgrade him to improve his resource-gathering abilities.
You can start upgrading Scrappy soon after starting your journey in ARC Raiders. There are four levels of upgrades available for your rooster, and this guide will give you all the information you need.
All Scrappy upgrade levels in ARC Raiders

How to Find All Scrappy Upgrade Items in ARC Raiders
Let's start with level 2, which will be Scrappy's first update.
Level 2

Level 2 requires you to find a collar, and we already have it. special guide on the topic. In short, you will need to explore the residential areas of the Buried City map. They can be found either on pieces of furniture or in trash containers. Note that these are also located in other locations, but I found them in Buried City.
Level 3

The second update requires you to use Lemons and apricots. Both of these items can be found in the swampy area of the Dams Battlegrounds map. We have a special guide that will help you solve all your difficulties.
Level 4
The third improvement requires the use of prickly pears, olives and cat litter. Cat beds can be found in commercial areas such as Testing Attache. However, I found it in Ruby Residence (also found in Pale Apartments). Both Ruby Residence and Pale Apartments can be found in the Dam Battlegrounds location.
Olives can be found in the forest near the Dome Complex (Dam Battlefield) and prickly pears can be found near the cacti. Keep a close eye on both of these items as they are quite easy to miss.
Level 5

The last upgrade level requires apricots, mushrooms and pillows. We already know where to find Apricots since they are also needed for Scrappy's second upgrade. The best place for mushrooms is near the Dome, as mushrooms usually grow in the foliage.
I was able to find the pillows at Ruby Residence, but they seem to be found in residential and commercial settings everywhere. Be careful not to sell them (as you will also need them in various crafting recipes).
