How To Locate All Minecraft Chicken Variants

Chicken Variants in Minecraft.

Warm Chicken

The Warm Chicken, adorned with yellow and orange feathers, can be challenging to spot due to its camouflage in warmer environments. You can find this variant in the following biomes:

  • 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 thrives in colder climates. Search for this variant in these biomes:

  • Old Growth Pine Taiga
  • Old Growth Spruce Taiga
  • Snowy Taiga
  • Taiga
  • Windswept Forest
  • Windswept Gravelly Hills
  • Windswept Hills

Temperate Chicken

The third variant, the Temperate Chicken, is the classic Chicken renamed and can be found in biomes that are neither warm nor cold.

How To Tame Chickens in Minecraft

To collect all Chicken variants, you'll need to master the art of taming. Unlike dogs, Chickens can't be traditionally tamed, but you can attract them with seeds. Simply hold seeds to make Chickens follow you, then guide them into a fenced area. Repeat this process until you have the desired number of Chickens.

Be mindful of the distance between where you find the Chickens and your base. Setting up checkpoints can help manage the journey, especially in Survival mode where nighttime threats are prevalent.

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 and wait for them to enter love mode and lay an egg. For a surprise, feed seeds to two different variants; the resulting egg will hatch into a random Chicken type.
