Finding Chickens in Their Native Homes

Forest & Taiga Chickens:

Warm Climate Chickens:
- Wooded and coniferous badlands are home to Mesa Chickens
- Jungles and oases feature Tropical Chickens with vibrant coloring

Efficient Searching
Chickens are common spawns, so you'll encounter variants naturally as you explore. Bring seeds to lure chickens toward you once found. Unlike cows, chickens don't require wheat to breed—use seeds instead. Collect eggs from variants to establish breeding populations at your base.
