Instead, breeding chickens produces eggs. Works server-side and in single player. [VioletMistCloudDrift](https://modrinth.com/user/VioletMistCloudDrift) has also created a [Forge port](https://modrinth.com/mod/chicken-nerf-reforged). Ever think "Chicken farms are too easy...", or "Getting food in Minecraft isn't a challenge anymore..."? Chicken Nerf can help you with that. Chickens will no longer randomly lay eggs. Instead, when you breed two chickens (with seeds like in vanilla), they will produce a random number of eggs. This has several advantages: - it makes more sense - it makes chicken farms less 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 You can see the mod showcased at [2:00 of this video](https://youtu.be/x0R2ubLZEVE?t=120) by [bstylia14](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnVYbd8Kzp442CjJrkWLUKQ/videos). --- Mod Integrations Some entities from these mods will have their breeding behavior changed similarly to how Chicken Nerf affects chickens. - [Better Animals Plus](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/betteranimalsplus); affected entities: - Geese - Pheasants - Turkeys --- Configuration Supports [MidnightLib](https://modrinth.com/mod/midnightlib/versions) and [Mod Menu](https://modrinth.com/mod/modmenu/versions) for configuration, but neither is required. Versions before 1.7.0 support [Cloth Config](https://modrinth.com/mod/cloth-config/versions) *instead* of [MidnightLib](https://modrinth.com/mod/midnightlib/versions). Options will use their default values if [MidnightLib](https://modrinth.com/mod/midnightlib/versions) is absent. If [MidnightLib](https://modrinth.com/mod/midnightlib/versions) is present, options can be configured either through [Mod Menu](https://modrinth.com/mod/modmenu/versions) or by editing `config/chicken_nerf.json` in your instance folder (`.minecraft/` by default for the vanilla launcher). - Average chickens from one egg; default `0.6` The number and type of eggs chickens lay can be controlled with the loot table `minecraft:gameplay/chicken_lay`. Chicken Nerf adjusts the vanilla loot table so that chickens lay 1 to 3 eggs by default. Prior to version 1.3.1, the number of eggs was controlled via config: - Minimum eggs chickens lay; default `1` - Maximum eggs chickens lay; default `3` --- Translations [](https://crwd.in/chicken-nerf) [](https://modrinth.com/mod/sss-translate) Install [SSS Translate](https://modrinth.com/mod/sss-translate) to automatically download new translations.

The license is MIT, however, ~~so anyone else is free to port it.~~ and [VioletMistCloudDrift](https://modrinth.com/user/VioletMistCloudDrift) has [ported it to Forge](https://modrinth.com/mod/chicken-nerf-reforged)! I'd appreciate links back to this page if you port or otherwise modify this project, but links aren't required.
