| Description |
|
Right-clicking a mob with the same spawn egg will usually make a baby of that type if the mob got a baby stage, (so no babies at creepers, endermen, etc) WHAT I EXPECTED TO HAPPEN: a baby zombie would spawn under the zombie since baby zombies exist WHAT HAPPENED: Nothing NOTE: Yes, this is 1.4.4! |

In 19w44a, the hand animation plays when right-clicking onto a zombie with a zombie spawn egg, but that doesn't happen with skeletons for example. Edit: For discussions about this bug/behaviour, please use the reddit thread linked in Awesoman3000's comment above. |

In case anyone's interested in my reasoning: https://www.reddit.com/r/Mojira/comments/d5onh3/the_case_for_reopening_mc2871/ |

For the record, I don't believe breeding mechanics should be an argument for the usage of spawn eggs. These items are used in creative mode, and breeding is a survival mode mechanic. To connect these two together, why do these items then even exist. |

For the record: This bug is being fixed despite people's poor behavior in these comments, not because of it. Posting rude comments will not help your chances of seeing a bug fixed, and insults have no place on this tracker. |

Baby zombie and skeleton horses can be spawned through the spawn egg method, though, and can't breed, implying these are also only available through infection. |
| Comment by [Mod] Torabi [ 03/Apr/19 ] |

Presumably, zombies do not bear children, and baby zombies are instead the result of infection. Whether or not the player can breed the mobs is irrelevant – the question is how the babies are produced. |

Still affecting 19w13b, I fail to see how this very obvious inconsistency has not been reopened yet. |

For those that are clearly not understanding the situation, whether the mob is bred by the player or not is negligible, the fact remains that the mobs still breed in some form. Zombies and zombie pigmen do not breed under any circumstances however, so the reason for spawn eggs not having the desired effect still stands. |

Pretty sure this should be reopened as well. |

I'd say this is a feature request. Since these mobs cannot breed, they can't produce their baby forms when clicked with an egg. This would be a cool feature though. |

|
now, there ARE baby zombies in survival minecraft, does this still happening? if it is, it should be reopened. |
| Comment by TS [ 21/Nov/12 ] |

I agree with Ali. It would seem reasonable to expect that if right clicking Villagers (a mob that can't be 'bred' by the player) with a spawn egg produces a baby villager, right clicking a Zombie (Villager or Human) would do the same, and create a baby of that species. |

if something doesn't works what used to work you say "it should work but it doesn't" like if a disc wouldn't work then i would say: "The music disc should play music if placed inside a jukebox but it doesn't" |

"it should be possible" = "feature request" |
| Comment by Ali [ 14/Nov/12 ] |
|
but you can't really "breed" villagers and still spawn them with eggs! so it should be possible with zombies and zombie pigmen too! |
| Comment by Kumasasa [ 14/Nov/12 ] |
|
Yet just breedable mobs can be spawned as babies. |
| Comment by Ali [ 14/Nov/12 ] |
|
You can create babies by right-clicking a mob what got a baby stage with its spawn egg, so it wont work with creepers, ghasts, skeletons but it works with ocelots, wolves, cows, sheeps, chickens, villagers, etc what I'm talking about is that zombies and zombie pigmen got a baby stage (even if you can't find baby zombie pigmen naturally) |
| Comment by Chalmes (Jon) [ 13/Nov/12 ] |
|
Which mobs are you creating as babies with eggs? Ocelots, wolves and other animals? Or are you getting baby skeletons, creepers, pigmen etc as well? |
| Comment by Ali [ 13/Nov/12 ] |
|
But right-clicking other mobs with their spawn egg spawns babies too! You can even spawn baby villagers even if you cant force them to breed! |
| Comment by Mustek [ 13/Nov/12 ] |

I'm assuming this is because zombies can't breed. |
