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?
 * , I can vouch that at least as of 0.14.0, the user was correct in that information. See Zombie and also your own device if you wish.  I haven't checked it after May 2016 however, so it may have changed in the meantime ... Anyway, this info is not noted on the Zombie page, unfortunately, nor on this page, which are two pages where it might fit.  Incidentally, taking the new baby zombie behavior into account (see Zombie) do you have any thoughts on whether Chicken Jockey and/or Spider Jockey need a revisit, per my topic above? –  Sealbudsman talk/contr 20:29, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
