An egg is an item laid by chickens.

Obtaining

Chickens

Chickens lay eggs, which drop on the ground as items.

Usage

Throwing

Using an egg throws it. It breaks on the first block or entity it hits, and flies through water and lava.

A hit deals no damage, but counts as an attack by the thrower. It knocks a mob back, and angers a pig zombie or wild wolf as any attack would. It does nothing to a player.

A thrown egg hatches a chicken one time in eight when it breaks.

A dispenser fires eggs. A dispensed egg has no thrower, and knocks nothing back.
