How to get a chicken egg?
Players can find them on a chicken and of course, they drop one every 5-10 minutes. However, on average one egg is needed every 7.5 minutes. This means that players simply have to stand near a chicken for a while and wait for an egg to drop.
Eggs can also be found in loot from village chests where a Fletcher House is located. Sometimes foxes spawn by holding an egg in their mouth. Players can either kill them or feed them a food item to release the egg.
Possible uses of the egg
Eggs are primarily a food crafting item that can be used to make complex foods such as cakes and pumpkin pies. These are currently one of the best foods in the game.
Interestingly, players can also use them in combat by throwing them at mobs and other players. They do no damage but can attack monsters.
Chickens can produce eggs even if they are thrown by hand or through feeders and broken on the ground. This is very rare since the probability of this happening is 12.5%. In an even rarer case, three chickens can appear from the same egg, which is only a 3% chance.
