Piglin Spawn Egg
Piglin Spawn Egg — item.
Obtaining
The piglin spawn egg is available in creative play and has no survival crafting recipe. It is the item form used to create a piglin without searching the Nether, which makes it useful for testing farms, encounters, and custom maps.
| Availability | Creative inventory |
|---|---|
| Survival recipe | None |
| Entity result | Piglin |
Usage
Use the egg on a valid target block to create a piglin at that position. Piglins created this way use the same behavior, equipment, and dimension rules as naturally spawned piglins. A dispenser can create the piglin in front of it, and a baby variant can be requested by an interaction that supplies the baby data.
| Dispenser | Creates a piglin in front of it |
|---|---|
| Baby variant | Supported |
| Dispenser target | Block face in front of the dispenser |
Sounds
The egg itself has no separate sound family; the created piglin uses piglin ambient and interaction sounds.
Behavior
Using the egg creates a piglin at the target location. The resulting mob can later zombify outside the Nether, reacts to gold and protected blocks, and follows the standard piglin rules rather than a special spawn-egg AI.
