This mod is only required server-side: clients don't need it to connect to servers that have it. It also works in singleplayer.
Ever think "Chicken farms are too easy...", or "Getting food in Minecraft isn't a challenge anymore..."?
Well, this mod can help you with that.
Chickens will no longer randomly lay eggs. Instead, when you breed two chicken (with seed like in vanilla), they will produce a random number of eggs.
You can see the mod showcased at 2:00 of this video by bstylia14.
This has several advantages:
- it makes more sense
- it makes chicken farms non-trivial
- it can reduce lag because wild chickens won't randomly create items all over the place
- it more closely matches the other animals of minecraft
Configuration
Configuration requires Cloth Config, and configuring the mod in-game requires Mod Menu.
The default settings will result in about one baby chicken each time you breed two chickens.
Options:
- Minimum eggs chickens lay, default 1
- Maximum eggs chickens lay, default 3
- Average chickens from one egg, default 0.3333
- Enable translation fetching, default true
Mod Integrations
Some entities from these mods will have their breeding behavior changed similarly to how Chicken Nerf affects chickens.- Better Animals Plus, affected entities:
- Geese
- Pheasants
- Turkeys
If you'd like to translate Chicken Nerf (there are only a few lines of text), follow this link. New translations will be added once approved without the mod needing an update thanks to CrowdinTranslate.
This mod is only for Fabric (works on Quilt, too!) and I won't be porting it to Forge. The license is MIT, however, so anyone else is free to port it.
I'd appreciate links back to this page if you port or otherwise modify this project, but links aren't required.
