How to Hatch Duck Eggs and Craft Duck Feather Arrows

Hatching Baby Ducks from Eggs

Adult ducks periodically lay hatchable Duck Eggs over time as they roam and swim. You can use these eggs to expand your duck population without needing to track down new wild flocks in distant biomes.

1. Follow adult ducks around rivers, swamps, or fenced enclosures to collect the Duck Eggs they lay.

2. Hold a Duck Egg in your hand and right-click to throw it onto the ground.

3. Thrown eggs have a chance to hatch into baby ducks.

Baby ducks behave differently from adult ducks: while adult ducks fly up into the air when threatened, baby ducks will run fast across the ground to escape danger.

Crafting Duck Feather Arrows

Defeating ducks yields feathers alongside meat drops. You can repurpose these feathers into ammunition instead of letting them pile up in chests:

1. Collect duck feathers from defeated wild ducks.

2. Open a crafting table.

3. Craft Duck Feather Arrows by using duck feathers in place of regular feathers alongside flint and sticks.

This recipe functions just like the vanilla arrow recipe, giving you a steady supply of ranged ammunition whenever ducks are plentiful in your local area.
