Blue Egg

Items

Blue Egg — item.

Obtaining

Blue eggs are laid by cold chickens. The laying loot table selects the colour from the chicken variant: temperate chickens lay eggs, warm chickens lay brown eggs, and cold chickens lay blue eggs.

Data: Obtaining
Source variant	Cold chicken
Laying table	minecraft:gameplay/chicken_lay
Selection	One egg item per laying roll

Usage

Blue eggs are throwable egg-family items and can be carried or stored like the other variants. The colour is supplied by the chicken variant component, not by a dyeing recipe.

Data: Behavior
Projectile power	1.5
Chicken chance	1/8 on impact
Four-chicken chance	1/32 of successful hatch rolls
Variant propagation	Cold chicken variant
