The latest Minecraft Snapshot 25w08a introduced an array of changes and improvements to mobs and items that vastly improve the gameplay experience for players. Among these, Mojang introduced a complete overhaul of the design for all mob-spawning eggs in creative mode.

Earlier, the mob-spawning eggs had the same shape, only varying in shades to mark the variants or different types of mobs in the game. However, this update adds a major visual change — the eggs now resemble the mobs they spawn, making it an adorable and much-needed functional improvement to the creative gameplay.

This new visual update adds a cute facelift to the rows of standard-looking items and makes it easier for players to know which spawn egg they are holding. Creative mode is one of the most popular aspects of the game so it comes as no surprise that Mojang is constantly pushing for more improvements.

Apart from being a visual improvement, this is a major functional change as well. The new textures are a great accessibility upgrade for colorblind players. These new textures will allow them to recognize the eggs by sight rather than rely on the tooltip or the inventory. Additionally, the eggs are of different sizes as well — they are directly proportional to the mob's real size in the game.

These new designs in the Minecraft update accommodate all hostile and passive mobs, making it a great improvement for players who recreate scenarios and unique story-based videos in creative mode. The overhaul to the eggs can be noticed by heading over to the spawn eggs tab in the game's creative mode inventory.
