How to Use Flexible Ingredients in Spawn Egg Recipes

Several spawn egg recipes in the data pack feature flexible ingredient slots, allowing you to use color variations or alternative block types without altering the resulting spawn egg.

Egg Type Compatibility

When crafting any of the 83 available spawn eggs, you are not restricted to standard chicken eggs:

• You can use a normal egg, a blue egg, or a brown egg as the central crafting item across all recipes.
• Any of these three egg types will satisfy the egg requirement for common mobs, passive entities, and bosses alike.

Color and Block Variations

Certain mob recipes accept multiple variations of thematic materials:

1. Sheep Spawn Egg: You do not need white wool to craft a Sheep Spawn Egg. Any wool color works in the recipe.

2. Trader Llama Spawn Egg: When crafting a Trader Llama Spawn Egg, any carpet color can be used in the crafting grid.

3. Wither Spawn Egg: The recipe accommodates both soul soil and soul sand, allowing you to use whichever soul block you have gathered.

Place your chosen variations into the crafting table alongside your base egg to produce the corresponding spawn egg.
