Sniffer Egg

A sniffer egg is a block that can be brushed out of suspicious sand in warm ocean ruins, or obtained by breeding two sniffers. It slowly hatches into a baby sniffer when placed as a block in the world, which takes half as much time when it is placed on a moss block.

Breaking
Sniffer eggs can be mined with any tool, even with bare hands, and always drop themselves. Unlike turtle eggs, Silk Touch is not needed.

Mob loot
Sniffer eggs can also be obtained by breeding two sniffers with torchflower seeds. Unlike turtle eggs or frogspawn which are placed into the world in block form, sniffer eggs are dropped as items, similar to chicken eggs.

Placing
Sniffer eggs can be placed in block form and slowly hatch into baby sniffers.

Sniffer eggs do not require a supporting block below. Unlike dragon eggs, they are not affected by gravity.

Hatching
Sniffer eggs crack over time and hatch after cracking twice. They hatch faster when on moss blocks. Sniffer eggs hatch in about 10 minutes on moss blocks, and take twice as long to hatch on non-moss blocks.

Sniffer eggs do not need to receive random ticks to hatch. Therefore, the hatching speed of sniffer eggs is not affected by the game rule.

Piston interactivity
Sniffer eggs can be pushed and pulled by pistons; this is intended.
