Light blocks are invisible blocks, primarily intended for map makers, that can produce any light level.
Obtaining
Light blocks cannot be mined, or even targeted, similar to air. Light Blocks with light level 0 are functionally identical to air. They do not attach to any block, meaning that breaking an adjacent block does not remove the light block. However, they can be broken by replacing them with another block. The exception is water (including flowing water) which can occupy the same space as a light block. See this page for details.
Light blocks are not in the player's creative inventory. They can only be obtained using /give, with any data value from 0 to 15. This value determines the block's light level.
Usage
A light block is normally used in adventure maps (while most just apply Night Vision or Conduit Power effects). This is also used by teachers to light up assignments. [edu only]
Each light block (as a block or as an item) has an associated light level, which can be anything between 0 and 15 inclusive. In the player's inventory, light blocks display their light level in the top-left corner and appear "brighter" at higher light levels.
When placed as blocks, light blocks are non-solid and completely invisible. Unlike barriers and structure void, they do not reappear when the player is holding another light block.
Light blocks can be pushed and pulled by pistons, are detected by observers, and can be waterlogged.
Light Source
Light blocks produce their associated light level.

'''Raw chicken''' is a [[food]] item that can be eaten by the [[player]]. It can be cooked in a [[furnace]], [[smoker]], or a [[campfire]] to make [[cooked chicken]].
==Obtaining==
===Mob loot ===
Upon death, an adult [[chicken]] drops 1 raw chicken. The maximum is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 1-4 with Looting III. Chickens that die while on [[fire]] drop [[cooked chicken]] instead.
===Cat gifts===
{{main|Cat#Gifts}}
Tamed [[cat]]s have a 70% chance to give the [[player]] a gift as they wake up from a [[bed]], and the gift has a 16.13% chance to be raw chicken.
==Usage==
=== Food===
To eat raw chicken, press and hold {{control|use}} while it is selected in the hotbar. Eating one restores {{hunger|2}} hunger and 1.2 hunger [[Hunger#Mechanics|saturation]], but has a 30% chance of inflicting food poisoning (the {{EffectLink|link=Hunger (status effect)|Hunger}} effect for 30 seconds).
<nowiki>*This has a similar effect as [[Rotten Flesh]].
===Smelting ingredient===

===Wolves===
Raw chicken can be used to [[breed]] and heal tamed [[wolves]], lead them around, and make baby tamed wolves grow up faster by 10% of the remaining time.
Wolves are at no risk of food poisoning.
===Trading===
Novice-level Butcher villagers have a {{frac|1|3}} chance to buy 14 raw chicken for an emerald.{{only|bedrock}}
Novice-level Butcher villagers have a 50% chance of offering to buy 14 raw chicken for an emerald.{{only|java}}
