After being rounded up in a pen, chicken can be fed with grain using a small [[trough]]. Hens will lay eggs on their own every 8-15 days, which can then be {{tnt|Using|picked up}} and used to make scrambled eggs, or as additives in meat stew and vegetable soups in the [[Cooking#Claypot_Cooking|cooking pot]].

To breed them, a rooster, a trough with food, and a [[henbox]] will be necessary. Once the hen has laid and the henbox is full, the broody hen will sit on them for 5 days until they hatch, prolonging the incubation time if the hen is spooked during the process. Once the eggs hatch a chick will appear, growing up after 168 hours (7 days), with a 90% chance to be a hen and only a 10% chance to be a new rooster.

Range in which chicken will flee from the player decreases by 10% with each bred generation. At generation 10 and above they loose fear of player completely. From the 3rd generation, the player can instantly kill chicken with a [[cleaver]].
