SIMPLY BIRDS

Bring more life to your world with Simply Birds! Discover seven peaceful bird species, each with its own 3D model, sounds, preferred habitats, and distinctive egg. Watch them wander, swim or fly, follow food, and pair up; their chicks follow nearby adults and grow over time.

🐦 Meet the birds

• Speckled Quail: Plains, sunflower plains, and meadows.
• Mallard: Rivers, swamps, and mangrove swamps.
• Meadow Goose: Plains, meadows, and rivers.
• Blue Macaw: Jungles, sparse jungles, and bamboo jungles.
• Peacock: Forests, flower forests, birch forests, and dark forests.
• Penguin: Snowy beaches and frozen oceans.
• Snowy Owl: Taigas, snowy plains, and ice spikes.

Birds naturally appear in small groups in their preferred vanilla biomes.

🍃 Food, breeding & growing

Feed two adults of the same species to breed them. Quails, mallards, geese, macaws, and peacocks follow vanilla seeds and pitcher pods; penguins follow raw cod; snowy owls follow raw chicken or raw rabbit. Chicks grow naturally and can grow faster when fed.

🥚 Eggs & drops

Adult birds lay their own species-specific eggs every 5–10 minutes. Throw an egg for a vanilla-style chance to hatch a chick of that species. Adults drop their species' meat, which can be cooked, and may drop vanilla feathers. Each bird's meat has its own balanced food value.

🔗 Simply Eggs compatibility

Simply Birds is compatible with Simply Eggs: use the birds' eggs in every Simply Eggs recipe that requires an egg.
