Mojang has unveiled an exciting update in the latest Minecraft Snapshot 25W06A, introducing two new chicken variants that enhance the game’s vibrant ecosystem. Players can now explore the addition of Warm and Cold Chickens, along with a new cactus flower and various types of dry grass, enriching the landscape and gameplay experience.
The Warm Chickens, characterized by their toasty brown feathers, thrive in the sun-kissed biomes, while the Cold Chickens, adorned with bluish-gray plumage, find their home in the frosty realms of Taiga. Each variant not only adds a splash of color to the game but also brings unique egg colors—earthy hues for the Warm Chickens and striking blue for their Cold counterparts.

To attract these delightful new fowls, players should come prepared with wheat, beetroot, or pumpkin seeds, which can also be utilized for breeding. The breeding mechanics allow for a delightful surprise, as offspring may inherit any variant from their parents, adding an element of unpredictability to the farming experience.
1. Warm Chicken
The Warm Chickens are a charming addition, bringing warmth and whimsy to the sandy biomes they inhabit. Their earthy-colored eggs mirror their surroundings, and while they may appear somewhat oblivious, their playful antics are sure to entertain players.
