Chickens lay eggs. Sometimes drop feather. You can throw eggs. That's it. SO BOOORING! Minecraft is a magical place so why not to add a little bit of magic? Chicken laying gunpowder... bonemeal... snowballs... YEAH! And what if you try to crossbreed them? Iron? Gold? DIAMODS? Just try it!
Features:
- ¨breed chickens to increase theirs stats: growth, gain and strength to rapidly increase your production
- inspect chickens with chicken analzer (an egg + a compass) to identify their stats and to get additional information
- dye chickens, combine an ordinary egg with a dye and throw what you get to obtain a chicken laying dye: Lapis Lazuli Chicken, Cactus Green Chicken, Rose Red Chicken, Bone Meal Chicken... you can breed them for gray, pink, etc.
- tier 1 chickens that are naturally spawning in the world: Flint Chicken, Snowball Chicken, Gunpowder Chicken, Nether Quartz Chicken, Lava Chicken
- get higher tier chickens by crossbreeding them and have Diamond Chicken, Ghast Tear Chicken and many many more!
- henhouse: provide hay bales and it will collect chicken 'products' in 9x9 area (4 blocks on each its side) for you, it will also produce dirt over time as a side effect ;]
- smart chicken: give a vanilla chicken a book and it will become smart enough to use henhouse ;]
- progressive breeding and laying system
- lava and water eggs: get your renewable and stackable liquid source today!

Feel free to use it in your modpack,
And let me know what do you think!
Somebody tell me pls , I can't find the log chicken , where do it spawn ? ;-;
Any plans on updating to 1.15.2?
I just want to say, even though I refactored some loot code and added 5-6 chickens years ago, I really appreciate that you're still keeping me in the credits.
Every time I see the cow, spider, log chickens.... I feel a swell of pride. Maybe also the sand and glass? I thought I did the bone chicken too, but I checked the repo and that one wasn't me. XD
Seriously, of all the little games and stuff I've put out, this one probably has had the biggest audience for me. I'm really proud of it! Thank you, and I love where this has gone!
In reply to JamusPsi:

I noticed that it says progressive breeding in the description but I installed this mod and all the eggs that the chickens lay are always 1 1 1 no matter the tier. Am I missing some addon or config change that activates the feature?
In reply to MrPlebb:
Turns out in order to increase their stats you have to breed them the vanilla way by giving them seeds, I feel very dumb.
Hey guys I hope someone could help, i'd like to play this mod but when i open minecraft it crashes, this is the list of mods if i did anything wrong pls tell it to me.

The screenshot provided doesn't help determine the issue you're having, send a log of the crashlog.
consider 1.14??
Hello :)
I Hope you doing well :).
I write cose i believe that you could make some more wood (acacia, dark oak birch etc.) chickens! Its actually little frustrating when you basing on chickens and can`t use your favorite wood :/. Is this even possible?
Regards to you and thanks for really great mod!
:)
In reply to Jatrille:
You can use content tweaker to add custon chickens.
in 1.12.2 the egg stats dont grow up
i have a sand chicken and a redstone chicken, but the stats are at 1 1 1 anytime.
I apologize if this is a dumb question because I suck at math calculations and terminology, but in the .json for controlling / creating chickens, I'm looking at the lay_coefficient;
I want to tweak the production rate of some chickens, but I'm not sure which way to tweak, does increasing the coefficient reduce or increase the production rate, and vice versa for reducing the coefficient?
Additionally, I assume it probably isn't, but just in case is it possible to create new custom chickens through the .json instead of creating a new mod, and if it is possible, what defines the chicken's texture(s)?
What biome do flint chickens spawn in?
Any plans on updating to 1.14?
In reply to Frozen_Photon:
forge 1.14 still hasn't gotten everything up to date yet. I have been working with it, but some things cant be added yet.
where can i find the id names for the starter eggs. im trying to make them craftable instead of spawning in the world im using craft tweaker to change it.

This isn't the place to post code/craftweaker jsons. Since this is craftweaker I would ask them. But craftweaker has a command ingame that gives you id's of items. You also need the nbt data on the egg it self. Its not just the id.
In reply to GenDeathrow:
the code was only to show what im talking about nothing more. the name id for the specific eggs is directly connected to the mod it self. not crafttweaker. im not looking for the number id those i know change. im looking for what you call in in the mod. as in the example chickens:spawn_egg should be something like flint egg or what not. i can not find reference to that name anywhere
In reply to heisenberg1151:
It just makes things look cluttered on this page, best practice is a line or two, or go to the mod's github/bitbucket repo to post in the issue tracker with gist or pastebin. Its just to keep the comments page from looking massive. Also your trying to do what skyfactory did, which used my 'Hatchery' mod to create the eggs for the none color chickens. Hatchery stores an entity inside the egg. There aren't these eggs in the 'Chickens' mod. You can easily look in skyfactory's scripts to understand how to do it. Cause I have no clue how to use craft tweaker. Only reason I didn't say this before is cause I actually thought I was responding on Hatchery page earlier.
