Despawning Eggs Hatch is a minimalistic configurable mod which allows chicken eggs on the ground to hatch just before they despawn. New spawns will be limited to 50 by default, in order to prevent infinite chicken spawns. Items (and eggs) despawn after 6000 ticks, 5 minutes. By default a chicken will only spawn when the egg despawns when on top of a hay block. This prevents groups of wild chicken groups in loaded chunks from getting too big.
All available config options:
Show Spoiler
eggOnlyHatchesWhenOnTopOfHayBlock default true
When enabled, an egg will only hatch when it is laid on top a hay block. This prevents wild chicken colonies from expanding without your knowledge.
eggWillHatchChance default 1.0, min 0, max 1.0
The chance an egg will hatch just before despawning if the entity limiter is not active.
onlyHatchIfLessChickensAroundThan default 50, min 0, max 1000
Prevents too many entities from hatching. A despawning egg will only hatch if there are less chickens than defined here in a radius of 'radiusEntityLimiterCheck' blocks around.
radiusEntityLimiterCheck default 32, min 1, max 256
The radius around the despawned egg for 'onlyHatchIfLessChickensAroundThan'.
newHatchlingIsBaby default true
If enabled, the newly hatched chicken is a small chick.
(with the despawn timer set to 1 second for the example)
