As the name suggests, you can locate the cold chicken in the colder regions of your Minecraft world. It essentially refers to specific biomes with snow and ice, as well as regions that are marginally elevated. The spawning of this variant is similar to the cold cows and pigs that were introduced recently.

Here are all the biomes where you can get your hands on the cold chicken:

• Cold Ocean
• Deep Cold Ocean
• Deep Dark
• Deep Frozen Ocean
• End Barrens
• End Highlands
• End Midlands
• Frozen Ocean
• Frozen Peaks
• Frozen River
• Grove
• Ice Spikes
• Jagged Peaks
• Old Growth Pine Taiga
• Old Growth Spruce Taiga
• Small End Islands
• Snowy Beach
• Snowy Plains
• Snowy Slopes
• Snowy Taiga
• Stony Peaks
• Taiga
• The End
• Windswept Forest
• Windswept Gravelly Hills
• Windswept Hills

Head to these biomes and look for the new variant, which can be easily spotted due to its dark grey/blue tint that stands out from the surroundings. Similar to the regular mob, the cold chicken drops feathers and raw chicken alongside 1-3 XP orbs when eliminated by the player or a wolf.

The warm chicken can be found in hot and warm locations on your Minecraft map. Simply head over to areas like deserts, plateaus, and biomes with higher temperatures compared to temperate biomes to spot this new variant.

Here are all the biomes where you can find the warm chicken:

• Badlands
• Bamboo Jungle
• Basalt Deltas
• Crimson Forest
• Deep Lukewarm Ocean
• Desert
• Eroded Badlands
• Jungle
• Lukewarm Ocean
• Mangrove Swamp
• Nether Wastes
• Savanna
• Savanna Plateau
• Soul Sand Valley
• Sparse Jungle
• Warm Ocean
• Warped Forest
• Windswept Savanna
• Wooded Badlands

You can easily locate this warm variant owing to its yellowish-orange hue, which is marginally different from the temperate (regular) version. Just like the cold chicken, this variant will also drop feathers and raw chicken alongside 1-3 XP orbs when eliminated by the player or a tamed wolf.

How to spawn the cold and warm chicken in Minecraft

Eggs are one of the easiest ways in which players can spawn chickens in the game — be it to expand your farm or distract the warden when braving the ancient city. Keeping that in mind, the Minecraft Spring to Life game drop introduces two variants, the blue and brown eggs. These variants will spawn the warm and cold chicken, respectively.

These eggs are a great way to spawn a specific variant of the chicken if you do not wish to return to a biome to get more. However, these eggs are variant-specific and can be obtained from their parent type only. Meanwhile, the regular (temperate) chicken will hatch the regular (white) eggs.

Similar to the new variants of the cows and the pigs, the variant of a chicken is determined by where it spawns. Additionally, existing eggs in all biomes can hatch a temperate (regular) variant of the mob. These new styles enhance the title's visual experience and add diversity to the appearances of common mobs while exploring different biomes in the game.
