Lava Chicken has become a household anthem, particularly in homes where the A Minecraft Movie has been played on repeat. The infectious jingle, La-la-la-lava chi-chi-chi-chicken, is now available in Minecraft Bedrock for the first time, encapsulated in a music disc. However, acquiring this catchy tune is no simple feat; it’s a rare drop unless one opts for the creative mode, a choice many players might find tempting.
Minecraft 1.21.94 Bedrock update adds Lava Chicken 8-bit record
The latest Minecraft 1.21.94 Bedrock update introduces the Lava Chicken music disc, which can be obtained by defeating a baby Zombie riding a Chicken, commonly referred to as a Chicken Jockey. For seasoned Minecraft players, the rarity of encountering a Chicken Jockey is well-known. These unique entities do not spawn independently; only 15% of Baby Zombies will choose to ride another creature, and an even smaller fraction will opt for a Chicken. According to the Minecraft wiki, each Baby Zombie has a mere 5% chance of checking for a nearby chicken, resulting in odds ranging from 0.25% to 0.4875%. Consequently, many players may go their entire Minecraft careers without ever spotting one in Survival mode. Should you be fortunate enough to encounter this elusive creature, defeating it will reward you with the funky Lava Chicken music disc.
The easy and lazy way to get the Lava Chicken disc
For those who prefer a more straightforward approach, there are alternative methods to acquire the Lava Chicken disc without the hassle of survival gameplay. Here are a few options:
- A Minecraft Movie add-on: This add-on introduces two new bosses, Malgosha and the Great Hog, along with new Piglins and weapons inspired by the film, such as Garret’s Buck-Chuckets.
- A Minecraft Movie Hero Pack: Players can embody Jack Black’s Steve or any of the other main characters from the movie.
- A Minecraft Movie DLC: Engage in Eleytra races, survive the night, and sneak into the woodland mansion.
The Lava Chicken record serves as a delightful connection between the film and the game, providing a lighthearted way to celebrate the phenomenon without resorting to bringing live chickens into theaters.
