            <title>[MC-2871] Baby zombies are not spawned when right-clicking onto an adult zombie with a zombie spawn egg</title>
                <link>https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-2871</link>
                <project id="10400" key="MC">Minecraft: Java Edition</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;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)&lt;br/&gt;
but then i tried it with zombies&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;WHAT I EXPECTED TO HAPPEN: a baby zombie would spawn under the zombie since baby zombies exist&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;WHAT HAPPENED: Nothing &lt;img class=&quot;emoticon&quot; src=&quot;https://bugs.mojang.com/images/icons/emoticons/sad.png&quot; height=&quot;16&quot; width=&quot;16&quot; align=&quot;absmiddle&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;NOTE: Yes, this is 1.4.4!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

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.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

                            <comment id="531164" author="torabi" created="Wed, 3 Apr 2019 11:33:38 +0200"  >&lt;p&gt;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 &amp;#8211; the question is how the babies are produced.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

                            <comment id="504964" author="redstoneexplorer" created="Tue, 4 Dec 2018 17:25:00 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;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.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

                            <comment id="177550" author="brickman350" created="Mon, 21 Jul 2014 08:47:57 +0200"  >&lt;p&gt;I&apos;d say this is a feature request. Since these mobs cannot breed, they can&apos;t produce their baby forms when clicked with an egg. This would be a cool feature though.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="90600" author="zambonifofex" created="Sun, 14 Jul 2013 01:12:36 +0200"  >&lt;p&gt;now, there ARE baby zombies in survival minecraft, does this still happening? if it is, it should be reopened.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="23890" author="ts" created="Wed, 21 Nov 2012 18:18:55 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;I agree with Ali. It would seem reasonable to expect that if right clicking Villagers (a mob that can&apos;t be &apos;bred&apos; 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.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="21394" author="alili1996" created="Wed, 14 Nov 2012 13:10:59 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;if something doesn&apos;t works what used to work you say &quot;it should work but it doesn&apos;t&quot; like if a disc wouldn&apos;t work then i would say: &quot;The music disc should play music if placed inside a jukebox but it doesn&apos;t&quot;&lt;br/&gt;
that is NO feature request, it is a report of something what doesn&apos;t works!&lt;br/&gt;
so it is unfair to close this issue just because i said &quot;should&quot;&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="21374" author="kumasasa" created="Wed, 14 Nov 2012 08:18:19 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;&quot;it should be possible&quot; = &quot;feature request&quot; &lt;br/&gt;

                            <comment id="21367" author="kumasasa" created="Wed, 14 Nov 2012 07:57:55 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;Yet just breedable mobs can be spawned as babies.&lt;br/&gt;
Your issue is a feature request not a bug.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="21365" author="alili1996" created="Wed, 14 Nov 2012 07:41:27 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;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&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;what I&apos;m talking about is that zombies and zombie pigmen got a baby stage (even if you can&apos;t find baby zombie pigmen naturally)&lt;br/&gt;
and i liked to say you can&apos;t spawn their baby stages even if this 2 mobs got babies!&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="21312" author="chalmes" created="Tue, 13 Nov 2012 23:29:46 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;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?&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="21295" author="alili1996" created="Tue, 13 Nov 2012 21:57:39 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;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!&lt;br/&gt;
P.S. it isn&apos;t working at zombie-pigmen too! (yes, they got a baby stage what cant be viewed without external editors)&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
                            <comment id="21164" author="mustek" created="Tue, 13 Nov 2012 02:55:06 +0100"  >&lt;p&gt;I&apos;m assuming this is because zombies can&apos;t breed.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
