Chickens Hatch Now
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.20–1.21. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
Ever thought throwing eggs to hatch chickens was stupid? Well hey, that's why this mod exists!
How does it work? Plonk down a chicken egg (upto four) on top of a hay block! In about 9 minutes, a baby chicken will hatch!
Config options:
- Time taken to update hatching progress in seconds (default: 180)
- Disable chickens spawning from thrown eggs (default: true)
