Taming and Breeding Chickens in Minecraft
To collect your chicken variants, utilize the following methods:
Taming: Chickens aren't traditionally tamed. Instead, carry seeds to attract them and guide them into a fenced area. Repeat as needed. Remember long journeys back to your base might be necessary, especially in Survival mode. Consider establishing checkpoints along the way.
Breeding: To breed specific chicken variants, feed seeds to two of the same type. They'll enter "love mode" and produce an egg of that variant. For a surprise, feed seeds to two different types – the resulting egg will hatch a random variant.
This guide covers locating and breeding all three Minecraft chicken variants. For more Minecraft content, learn how to obtain Armadillo Scutes.
Minecraft is available on PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, PC, and mobile devices.
