What you’ll build
Every egg is a lottery ticket. Lure chickens home and build a coop that collects their eggs automatically. Fire the eggs from a dispenser cannon into a pen to see how many hatch, then set up a hopper-fed kitchen line.
Finish line: Your coop collects eggs, your egg cannon hatches chicks and your kitchen cooks by itself.
Bonus challenge: Build a chick scoreboard: one wool block per hatch on a wall. Can you reach 16? Predict how many eggs that takes first.
You’ll need
- Seeds
- Chickens
- Hoppers
- Chests
- A dispenser and a button
- A smoker
You choose
- My factory's name
- My mascot chicken's name
- My bet: eggs needed to hatch 5 chicks
Stuck?
- Chickens won't follow? Hold seeds in your hand and walk slowly.
- No eggs collecting? Each chicken needs to stand right on top of a hopper that feeds a chest.
- Few chicks? Only about 1 in 8 eggs hatches, so keep firing and tallying.
