Java Edition:Drowned Chicken Jockey in the Nether
For a while, stacked entities couldn't enter portals due to a bug.[1] However, there were methods of getting a drowned chicken jockey in the Nether.
Obtaining
Drowned Conversion
From versions 18w11a to 18w16a (1.13 Snapshots), there is chance of a drowned chicken jockey spawning whenever a baby zombie drowns and converts into a baby drowned. If an adult zombie drowns and converts into a drowned, there is a chance of an adult drowned chicken jockey spawning. After 1.21 Pre-Release 1, stacked entities could travel through portals, recontinuing drowned chicken jockey's in the Nether.
Drowned chicken jockeys can be obtained in the Overworld and End as water can exist in both dimensions. However, to obtain a drowned chicken jockeys in the Nether, the player must first place water in the Nether before this can be attempted. Zombies are able to travel through portals, however to make this easier the player can place a spawner and then convert it into a zombie spawner with a zombie spawn egg.
22w13oneBlockAtATime Mob Stacking
In the April Fools' snapshot 22w13oneBlockAtATime, the player is able to pick up nearly any entity in the game. Picking up these mobs will stack them on top of the players head, each added mob will be riding the mob before it, the player is then able to throw the stacked mobs to let go of them. This can be used to obtain a drowned chicken jockey, however chickens are easily killed doing this so its advised to create a stack of 3 chickens.
23w13a_or_b Votes
The April Fools' snapshot 23w13a_or_b introduced several methods to obtain normally unobtainable features, including drowned chicken jockey.
- The
natural_spawn_replacementvote, when applied, will replace the natural spawns of a mob with any mob, including drowned chicken jockey.
The natural_spawn_replacement vote will replace the natural spawn of any mob with any other mob, this means that when the game attempts to spawn the original mob it will instead spawn the replacement mob. This allows mobs to spawn in invalid biomes and dimensions, this also allows for jockey mobs to spawn in invalid biomes and dimensions as the mob that is responsible for spawning the jockey, is the passenger mob (the zombie in a zombie chicken jockey is the one responsible for the jockey).
