Template:Infobox item entity An egg is an Minecraft:item that is dropped by chickens and can be used to craft Minecraft:food items, such as Minecraft:cake, and can be thrown for a chance to spawn baby chickens on impact. They have three variants based on the variant of the corresponding chicken: the standard egg for temperate chickens, brown egg for warm chickens, and blue egg for cold chickens.
Obtaining
Mob loot
{{#vardefine:params|0 }}Template:Hatnote Every adult chicken lays an egg item every 5–10 minutes, except for those that are or were part of chicken jockeys. The theoretical average would be expected at 1 egg every 7.5 minutes (9000 game ticks). The type of egg being laid depends on the chicken variant; temperate chickens lay normal eggs, cold chickens lay blue eggs, and warm chickens lay brown eggs.
A fox has a 3% chance of spawning with a normal egg in its mouth, which it drops upon death. Alternatively, a player dropping a food item causes the fox to drop the egg.
Generated loot
Script error: No such module "lootChest".
Usage
Crafting ingredient
Combat
Players are able to throw eggs and deal knockback to Minecraft:mobs (but not other playersTemplate:Only<ref>Template:Bug</ref>), but no damage is dealt, similar to a Minecraft:snowball. Likewise, throwing eggs at neutral mobs provokes them. Eggs can also be fired from Minecraft:dispensers and are affected by gravity. Eggs thrown through fire or lava in Template:Editions catch fire, and set fire to entities they hit.
Spawning chickens
When thrown by a dispenser or by pressing the {{#vardefine: control | right click on mouse or left trigger on gamepad }}use button, an egg has a Template:Fraction (12.5%) chance of spawning a chick. If this occurs, there is a Template:Fraction (3.125%) chance of spawning three additional chicks (on average, 1 out of every 256 eggs spawns 4 chicks). In other words, whenever an egg is thrown, there is a Template:Fraction chance of spawning 1 chick and a Template:Fraction chance of spawning four chicks.
The chick variant depends on which egg variant was thrown; regular eggs hatch temperate chicks, blue eggs hatch cold chicks, while brown eggs hatch warm chicks.
The expected value of the number of chicks an egg produces is Template:Fraction or 13.7%. This means that on average, a chick is spawned every 7.3 eggs, a stack of 16 eggs spawns 2.188 chicks, and a full inventory including the hotbar and off-hand (37 × 16 = 592 eggs) is expected to spawn approximately 81 chicks.
Behavior

Sounds
Java Edition:
Thrown eggs use the Friendly Creatures sound category for entity-dependent sound events.

Trivia
- Eggs break mid-fall if hit by another projectile; the chance of spawning a chick is not affected.
- A thrown egg faces toward the player in first-person view, while it appears rotated horizontally in third-person view. This is the case for all throwable Minecraft:items such as ender pearls, Minecraft:snowballs, and all throwable Minecraft:potions.
