Usually found hovering in the air, Krochead Barrels, upon being touched by either [[Diddy Kong]] or [[Dixie Kong]], will summon several [[Krochead]]s, which Diddy and Dixie can use to cross large gaps. The Krockheads summoned by a Krochead Barrel will only be surfaced for a short amount of time, meaning Diddy and Dixie will need to hop on them quickly, before they submerge themselves.

A Krockhead Barrel,[1] also formatted as Krockhead barrel,[2] is a type of barrel in Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest and Donkey Kong Land 2.

If Diddy or Dixie Kong touch a Krockhead Barrel, several Krockheads emerge from the swamp, and the Kongs can jump from them to travel across. However, there is only a limited opportunity to do so, as the Krockheads retreat back into the swamp water shortly afterward. While a Krockhead Barrel is active, the Krockhead icon depicted on it blinks repeatedly. If the Kongs touch a Krockhead Barrel again, the duration of its effect is reset.
