Mojang has set the stage for an exciting year in the world of Minecraft with the release of Snapshot 25W06A. Following the introduction of pig variants, players can now look forward to an array of new features, including fresh chicken variants that add a delightful twist to the game.
Minecraft Snapshot 25W06A Brings New Chickens
As players immerse themselves in the latest updates, they will encounter the newly introduced Warm and Cold chicken variants. These chickens can be found in their respective biomes, while the original models will continue to inhabit other areas, now referred to as Temperate Chickens. This update also introduces a variety of eggs, each with unique spawning capabilities: the Blue egg yields a cold chicken, the Brown egg produces a warm chicken, and the traditional white egg remains for the temperate variants.
Cactus Flowers and New Dry Grass Adds More Detail
In addition to the avian additions, Snapshot 25W06A enriches the landscape with a new type of flower that flourishes in the desert and badlands biomes. These vibrant blooms can either spawn naturally or be placed by players, with a higher likelihood of appearing atop taller cacti.
The update also introduces two new forms of dry grass, both short and tall, which stand out from the typical grass variants due to their single-block height. Found in the same arid biomes, these grasses serve multiple purposes: they can be fed to sheep to regenerate wool, composted to create Bone Meal, or utilized as a fuel source within the game.
Players eager to explore these new features can download the latest snapshot via the Minecraft launcher. The excitement surrounding the new chickens and the enhanced biomes is palpable, inviting players to dive back into the enchanting world of Minecraft.
