A '''brown egg''' is an [[egg]] that can be used to craft [[food]] items, or thrown for a chance to spawn [[warm chicken|baby warm chicken]]s on impact.

== Obtaining ==
=== Mob loot ===
{{see also|Tutorial:Egg farming}}
Adult [[warm chicken]]s lay a brown egg item every 5–10 minutes. The theoretical average would be expected at 1 egg every 7.5 minutes (9000 game ticks).

== Usage ==
=== Crafting ingredient ===
{{crafting usage}}

=== Combat ===
Players are able to throw brown eggs and deal knockback to [[mob]]s (but not other players{{only|JE|short=1}}<ref>{{bug|MC-3179|||WAI}}</ref>), but no damage is dealt, similar to a [[snowball]]. Likewise, throwing brown eggs at [[neutral mobs]] provokes them. Brown eggs can also be fired from [[dispenser]]s and are affected by gravity. Brown eggs thrown through fire or lava {{in|BE}} catch fire, and set fire to entities they hit.

=== Spawning chickens ===
When thrown by a dispenser or by pressing the {{control|use}} button, a brown egg has a {{fraction|1|8}} (12.5%) chance of spawning a [[warm chick]]. If this occurs, there is a {{fraction|1|32}} (3.125%) chance of spawning three additional warm chicks (on average, 1 out of every 256 brown eggs spawns 4 chicks). In other words, whenever a brown egg is thrown, there is a {{fraction|31|256}} chance of spawning 1 warm chick and a {{fraction|1|256}} chance of spawning four warm chicks.

The expected value of the number of warm chicks a brown egg produces is {{fraction|35|256}} or 13.7%. This means that on average, a warm chick is spawned every 7.3 brown eggs, a stack of 16 brown eggs spawns 2.188 warm chicks, and a full inventory including the hotbar and off-hand (37 &times; 16 = 592 brown eggs) is expected to spawn approximately 81 warm chicks.

For the purposes of establishing a new warm chicken farm with brown eggs alone, the probability ''P'' for at least 2 warm chicks to spawn after throwing ''n'' warm eggs can be calculated using the following formula:

<math>P = 1 - \left(\frac{7}{8}\right)^n - n \times \frac{1}{8} \times \frac{31}{32} \times \left(\frac{7}{8}\right)^{n-1}</math>

When throwing 16 brown eggs, there is a 62% chance of spawning at least two warm chicks. When throwing 32 brown eggs, the probability rises to 92%

An average of 450 seconds elapses for a warm chicken to lay another brown egg. Accounting for all probabilities, the average warm chicken produces 1.09 warm chickens per hour when all the brown eggs it lays are thrown.
