*Minecraft* enthusiasts are always on the lookout for the latest Java Snapshot updates, eager to see what new features will be added to their beloved sandbox game. The recent Snapshot 25w06a has introduced two exciting new Chicken variants, set to become fan favorites. Here's your guide to locating all three Chicken variants in *Minecraft*.
How To Locate All Minecraft Chicken Variants
Warm Chicken

- Windswept Savanna

Temperate Chicken
Familiar to seasoned players, the classic Chickens have been renamed Temperate Chickens. They can be found in biomes that fall between warm and cold climates.
How To Tame Chickens in Minecraft
To collect all the different Chicken variants in *Minecraft*, you'll need to employ some taming techniques. Unlike dogs, Chickens can't be tamed in the traditional sense. However, by carrying seeds, you can entice Chickens to follow you, allowing you to guide them into a fenced area. Repeat this process until you have the desired number of Chickens.
Remember, depending on where you find the Chickens, the journey back to your base might be long. Setting up checkpoints to leave your livestock while you fetch more can be helpful. In Survival mode, be cautious not to leave them unattended for too long, as predators can pose a threat, especially at night.
How To Breed All Chicken Variants in Minecraft
Once you've gathered all three Chicken variants, breeding them is straightforward. To breed specific types, feed seeds to two of the same variant to trigger love mode, resulting in an egg that will hatch into the same type of Chicken. For a surprise, feed seeds to two different variants; the resulting egg will hatch into a random Chicken type.
And that's your comprehensive guide to finding and managing all three *Minecraft* Chicken variants. If you're looking to explore more, learn how to obtain Armadillo Scutes in *Minecraft*.
