AutoHatch – 5‑Second Item Incubation

This mod does one thing: when you drop an egg as an item onto a solid block, it sits there for exactly 5 seconds, then hatches into a baby chick. Every time, no randomness.

What it provides

Dropped egg items hatch after a fixed 5‑second delay.
100% hatch rate on any solid surface.
The egg stays as an item on the ground for those 5 seconds.
No new blocks, no new items – it only changes how the egg item behaves on the ground.

How this changes gameplay for you

You no longer have to rely on the vanilla random chance when trying to get chickens. Just drop eggs from your inventory, and every single one becomes a chick. You can drop a whole stack at once and they'll all hatch together after 5 seconds.
Because the delay is predictable, you can use a dropper to dispense eggs onto a solid floor at regular intervals. They'll hatch consistently without you having to stand there and handle them manually.
No waste – every egg you drop counts. In vanilla you'd lose most of them to the 12.5% chance, but now you know exactly how many chickens you're getting.

It's lightweight, works on servers, and doesn't interfere with other mods. Just dropped eggs turning into chicks after 5 seconds.
