Temperate Chickens: The familiar, classic white chickens, now called Temperate Chickens, are found in all biomes not listed above.

Taming Chickens in Minecraft

To collect your chicken flock, remember that chickens aren't tamed traditionally. Instead, feed them seeds to encourage them to follow you. Guide them to a secure enclosure. Be mindful of travel time, especially in Survival mode, and consider establishing checkpoints for your feathered companions.

Breeding Chicken Variants in Minecraft

Breeding is straightforward. Feed two chickens of the same variant seeds to produce an egg that will hatch a chicken of that same type. For a surprise, feed seeds to two chickens of different variants; the resulting egg will hatch a random variant.
