Overview

Incubation is a small yet essential addition to the Minecraft experience, designed by Team Abnormals to streamline poultry farming and expand the utility of eggs. The mod addresses the common issue of eggs cluttering the ground by introducing Nests, which chickens actively seek out to lay their eggs. Beyond automation, the mod adds decorative storage solutions and nutritious new food items, making egg farming both more efficient and rewarding.
