Raw chicken is a food item that can be eaten by the player. It can be cooked in a furnace, smoker, or a campfire to make cooked chicken.

Obtaining

Mob loot

Upon death, an adult chicken drops 1 raw chicken. The maximum is increased by 1 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 1-4 with Looting III. Chickens that die while on fire drop cooked chicken instead.

Source	Roll Chance	Quantity (Roll Chance)
		Default	Looting I	Looting II	Looting III
Chicken	100%	1	1–2	1–3	1–4

Cat gifts

Tamed cats have a 70% chance to give the player a gift as they wake up from a bed, and the gift has a 16.13% chance to be raw chicken.

Usage

Food

To eat raw chicken, press and hold use while it is selected in the hotbar. Eating one restores 2 () hunger and 1.2 hunger saturation, but has a 30% chance of inflicting food poisoning (the Hunger effect for 30 seconds).

*This has a similar effect as Rotten Flesh.
