Talk:Chicken Jockey

Page?
Shouldnt this be a part of the of the Zombie page? Seeing that the other versions of zombies are all part of it. --Saanoth (talk) 17:51, 5 December 2013 (UTC)


 * The Spider Jockey is separate from spider, even though it spawns randomly instead of a spider. KnightMiner (talk) 18:00, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Dinnerboned Pic
I made a pic of an upside-down one, that you might want to add... I can't be bothered making an account to upload it; it's at imgur.com/hurVADh (and I can't post a direct link here, it won't permit it) 88.104.29.236 23:44, 5 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Added. 10:59, 6 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Those are great, Four combinations possible (in the Pic), including the Chickens-themselves, being I-guess flippable, by their own "Dinnerbone" (there's another, Notch pretty sure), -named Name Tag. I'm just saying I missed that point, in the previous 2 re-views, of this stuff, hee hee.


 * Now, according to this info. about Curing a Zombie (Baby) Villager, we could get a free Chicken. I can imagine a contest where someone defeats an Ocean Monument for its 8 Gold Blocks, uses them to Cure such a(n ex-Zombie) Villager, giving a free Chicken, lol.

Is this for real, or just a prank?
Including a prank by Dinnerbone.... --MentalMouse42 (talk) 01:58, 6 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Yeah, it's in 13w49a. Spam zombie spawn eggs for a while and you'll get one. -- Orthotopetalk 02:05, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

Baby Zombie Pigmen Chicken Jockey
(wow, quite the name) Shouldnt the variation where it is a zombie pigman riding the chicken be mentioned very early in the article, seeing that this divides the Chicken Jockey into to big variations? --Saanoth (talk) 21:18, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

I'm also wondering if Zombie Pigmen Babies "Burn" in the sun, in the Overworld (I know adults, Eventually can I believe). I'll go check that out at that page. Meanwhile, I really wonder if this Mob is any more difficult to deal with than simply a Baby Zombie (Pigman)?

Other than that no fall damage from a Drop, thing; this might make having Bases /Villages underneath any overhang more-dangerous (but they already would be, if a Creeper decides to Detonate on impact), especially to Villagers. The hitbox is much larger, though it seems while dealing damage to the Hostile, riding Mob of the otherwise passive Chicken. I suppose they must be trickier, though as killing the Chicken underneath will not change the Baby Zombie (Pigman)'s actions /Speed in the least, only reduce that ability to Drop, safely. Oh, and a last thought: sensing yet-another Chicken in a Chicken Farm may not any-longer be as safe as before, if there are any ways for Zombie Baby (Pigmen) to get /Spawn (if Zombie in the Overworld; or Pigmen, in the Nether) inside.

Spawn Rate
Anyone know the exact spawn rate of Chicken Jockeys? (Like from the code). Docm77 in a recent video said 5% of Zombies were Baby and 2% of Baby Zombies were Chicken Jockeys. KnightMiner (talk) 23:26, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

Are they able to spawn with armor / pick up items?
Does anyone know if the babyzombies riding the chicken can spawn with armor or weapons, and wether they can pick up items or not? --MinecraftChrizz (talk) 16:22, 10 December 2013 (UTC)


 * In one of Docm77 videos, he had a chicken jockey who picked up a block of cobblestone. As for spawning I am unsure. KnightMiner (talk) 17:36, 10 December 2013 (UTC)

The baby zombie jockey controls the chicken. However, the zombie pigman jockey uses the chicken AI.
Shouldn't that be added to the page? I found that on the Zombie Pigman page. I think it should be added to this page as well. 121.216.98.182 04:01, 29 April 2014 (UTC)

Okay.
Once I saw a baby zombie villager chicken jockey and I was all like "A baby villager has been bit by a zombie...And a chicken."


 * Yeah. Maybe it got Chicken-pox XD, too.


 * in R L, adults suffer far-worse (can even die) from chicken pox, if they Didn't get it as younger, kids (which prevents them from getting it, later). Who knows if MC Zombie -Infected Villagers, suffer-worse as adults, When they become Zombies (they don't Age, if they become Zombies as Children), Burning in Sunlight being one of the symptoms that can lead to death - and if part of the protection of the Zombie Baby /Child Villagers is that, rarely, they can "become" partially like Chickens themselves :P - so that MC Zombies have something in-common with chicken pox, which can have Chickens themselves?

Pig struck by lightning
Does anybody know if a pig that has been struck by lightning can become a zombie pigman chicken jockey? Has that been tested? Ensephylon (talk) 00:34, 12 May 2014 (UTC)

Jockeys
Chicken Jockey and Spider Jockey were (relatively) well-defined things when they were first implemented. But, when Pocket Edition 0.14.0 came out, a new set of behaviors for baby zombies came into effect, where they try to ride a variety of things, passive mobs included.

It would be nice to toss around some ideas of what to do with this flourishing of Jockey types.

 * Have a single 'jockey' page?
 * Change the chicken jockey page to encompass all animals that baby zombies jockey, keep the skeleton jockey page as encompassing all animals (except horses) that spiders jockey?
 * Keep chicken jockey and skeleton jockey as they are, without the new PE jockeys, and have a new page for just those?
