About this Mod

Chickensaurs is a mod adding the Nether-dwelling descendants of the chicken to Minecraft. Due to fierce competition from piglins and hoglins in the Crimson Forest, the chickens were forced to carve a niche for themselves in an unlikely biome: the Soul Sand Valley.

A group of chickensaurs in the Soul Sand Valley.

  • Chickensaurs hunt skeletons in packs, using their serrated beaks to decapitate them. Crafty players can use this to their advantage to source skeleton skulls.
  • Due to the high iron content of their diet, chickensaurs have beaks and feathers coated in iron, the excess of which can be gathered with a brush.
  • When approached by a player or a piglin, chickensaurs will attempt to scare them off by expelling soulfire from their comb. They will attack if the intruder gets too close.
  • Chickensaurs can be tamed (if it's a baby), healed and bred with bones. A tamed chickensaur is given dyeable leg bands, and can be saddled & ridden! Tamed chickensaurs will also fight alongside their owner.

The mod was created for ModFest 1.21.
