Minecraft Chickens: Finding All 3 Variants

Minecraft players eagerly anticipate Java Snapshot updates, offering glimpses into the sandbox game's future. Snapshot 25w06a introduces three exciting chicken variants, adding a delightful layer of variety to the familiar fowl. Here's your guide to finding them all.

Locating All Minecraft Chicken Variants

Warm Chicken

The Warm Chicken boasts sunny yellow and orange feathers, a vibrant contrast to its traditional white counterpart. Its coloration makes it surprisingly difficult to spot in warmer biomes. Look for it in these locations:

• Badlands
• Bamboo Jungle
• Eroded Badlands
• Jungle
• Savanna
• Savanna Plateau
• Sparse Jungle
• Windswept Savanna
• Wooded Badlands

Cold Chicken

As the name suggests, the Cold Chicken sports cool blue feathers and thrives in frigid environments. Check these biomes:

• Old Growth Pine Taiga
• Old Growth Spruce Taiga
• Snowy Taiga
• Taiga
• Windswept Forest
• Windswept Gravelly Hills
• Windswept Hills

Temperate Chicken

Veteran players will recognize the Temperate Chicken—the classic chicken, now officially renamed. These birds reside in all biomes not classified as warm or cold.

Taming Chickens in Minecraft

Collecting all three chicken variants requires a bit of patience. Unlike taming wolves, chickens don't respond to direct commands. Instead, carry seeds; the chickens will follow, allowing you to guide them into a fenced area. Repeat this process until you've gathered your desired flock.

Remember, depending on the chicken's origin, the journey back to your base can be lengthy. Consider establishing checkpoints along the way to safely store your feathered friends. This is especially crucial in Survival mode, where nighttime dangers abound.

Breeding All Chicken Variants in Minecraft

Once you've assembled your diverse chicken collection, expanding your flock is straightforward. Feed seeds to two chickens of the same type to produce an egg that hatches a matching chicken. For a surprise, feed seeds to two different chicken types; the resulting egg will hatch a random variant.

That's how to find and breed all three Minecraft chicken variants! For more Minecraft adventures, learn how to obtain Armadillo Scutes.
