Egg

An Egg is a food item added in the 7 Seecret Friday Update. Chickens lay eggs every 4–5 minutes. They can be stacked together in groups of up to 16.

During the Beta update (20 of December, 2010), eggs were made throwable at the request of a fan as a result of this Twitter conversation. When thrown, eggs have the same on-hit effect as snowballs and have a 1/8 chance of spawning one to four chickens, with a 1/32 chance of four chickens appearing from a single egg.

Eggs are a critical component of Cake - a single egg is required to craft each one.

Trivia

 * Like arrows and snowballs, when placed into a dispenser and then activated, eggs are fired from the dispenser and have the same effects as a thrown Snowball. Eggs fired in this manner have the same chance of spawning chickens when breaking on the ground.


 * There is a glitch where it will sometimes spawn five chickens. It may spawn more, though there have been no reports of more than five chickens coming from one egg.


 * If an egg is thrown through lava, it will catch on fire.


 * If an egg is thrown through water, it will leave a trail of bubbles, much like snowballs and arrows.


 * Although eggs hurt mobs when hit, if the player throws them straight up, they will not hurt the player if they come back down and hit them.
