Chicken Jockey

The Chicken Jockey is an extremely rare mob, that is a Baby Zombie riding a Chicken. It does not take any fall damage, nor is the Chicken AI used, because the Baby Zombie controls the Chicken, but the chicken can still randomly lay eggs.

When tracking, the chicken will move at the speed of a baby zombie, which is much faster than a normal chicken. It can track the player over a very large distance. Like zombies, the chicken will also track villagers. Unlike spiders, they cannot track through solid blocks.

They can fit through a 1-high space, but the baby zombie will take suffocation damage if the block above is solid.

If the player goes far enough away, the baby zombie de-spawns but the chicken does not, leaving a regular chicken behind.

Zombies have a 0.05% chance (1 in 2000) of being a chicken jockey.
