The world of Minecraft is populated by a wide variety of creatures called mobs. These mobs are broadly divided into three categories: passive, neutral and hostile. Hostile and neutral mobs pose a danger to players while passive mobs are friendly and won’t attack even when they’re hit.
Passive mobs are usually animal creatures like sheep, cows, pigs and chickens. Out of all mobs, chickens are among the few still available since the alpha versions of Minecraft.
Chickens spawn almost everywhere in the Overworld. Players can kill chickens to get meat or farm them for their eggs. Even though they are among the oldest mobs, players may not know some hidden facts about Minecraft chickens.

5) They had a diamond form
As part of an April Fools’ joke, developers released Minecraft 2 on 1 April 2013. Minecraft 2 looked similar to the usual Minecraft, but it had many strange features, such as diamond chickens.
Diamond chickens were modeled similar to regular chickens, but they were bluish instead of white. They were a rare type of mob that laid diamonds and lapis lazuli.
