*Minecraft* enthusiasts eagerly await the game's Java Snapshot updates, which provide a sneak peek into upcoming features. The latest Snapshot, 25w06a, introduces two new types of animals that players are sure to covet. Here's a detailed guide on where to find all three Chicken variants in *Minecraft*.
How To Locate All Minecraft Chicken Variants
Warm Chicken
The Warm Chicken, distinguished by its yellow and orange feathers, can be elusive due to its camouflage in warmer environments. Here are the biomes where you can search for this variant:
- Badlands
- Bamboo Jungle
- Eroded Badlands
- Jungle
- Savanna
- Savanna Plateau
- Sparse Jungle
- Windswept Savanna
- Wooded Badlands
Cold Chicken
In contrast, the Cold Chicken sports blue feathers and is found exclusively in colder biomes. Look for it in these locations:
- Old Growth Pine Taiga
- Old Growth Spruce Taiga
- Snowy Taiga
- Taiga
- Windswept Forest
- Windswept Gravelly Hills
- Windswept Hills
Temperate Chicken
The Temperate Chicken, formerly known as the Classic Chicken, remains unchanged in appearance but is found in all biomes that are neither warm nor cold.
How To Tame Chickens in Minecraft
To collect all the Chicken variants in Minecraft, you'll need to use seeds to attract them. Unlike dogs, Chickens can't be traditionally tamed, but they will follow you if you hold seeds. Here's how to gather them:
- Carry seeds to attract Chickens.
- Lead the Chickens into a fenced area.
- Repeat the process until you have the desired number of Chickens.
Remember, the journey back to your base can be long, so consider setting up checkpoints to temporarily house your livestock. In Survival mode, be cautious of nighttime threats that could harm your Chickens.
How To Breed All Chicken Variants in Minecraft
Once you've gathered all three Chicken variants, breeding them is straightforward. To breed specific types, feed seeds to two Chickens of the same variant. They will enter love mode and produce an egg, which will hatch into the same type of Chicken. For a surprise, feed seeds to two different types of Chickens; the resulting egg will hatch into a random variant.
