Egg Generator
Egg Generator adds a block that produces eggs when it sits above a hopper and a chest, a Fabric utility for players who want a steady egg supply.
What it does
Egg generators are craftable blocks that create eggs on their own. Each one is placed on the ground, and a hopper goes underneath it to move the output into a chest. Players follow five steps: craft the generator, place it, craft a hopper, place the hopper under the generator, then collect from the chest. The block is an automation shortcut for farming eggs without a manual collection loop.
Egg Generator runs on Fabric for 1.18.2 – 1.20.1 and needs Fabric API. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the source and issue tracker are public. Files cover 1.18.2, 1.19.3, 1.20 and 1.20.1, and the latest build is 1.0.1+1.20.1 for 1.20.1, released 2023-07-18.
Key features
Egg generator block
A craftable block that produces eggs, placed on the ground as the core of the setup.
Hopper output chain
A hopper placed under the generator collects its output, which can then flow into a chest.
Five-step setup
The recipe and placement sequence is short enough to build without a manual.
Chest collection
Eggs gathered through the hopper land in a chest, so the player does not have to stand and wait.

Use cases
Steady egg supply
Players who need eggs for brewing, cooking or breeding can gather them from a chest instead of hunting chickens.
Automated farm setup
The generator suits a small automated farm that runs while the player is away from the base.
Who it’s for: Survival players who want a passive source of eggs, and server owners who want a simple automation block without adding a new economy or large farm.
How it compares
Calcite Generator is a Fabric mod for 1.17 – 26.2 under the MIT License, open source, and it has no environment line, so it is not tied to the client or server side. Oneblocked is open source under the MIT License, with a Fabric file for 1.20.1 that runs on client and server, the same environment as Egg Generator.

What about a whole chicken farm inside just one block*? Still not impressed? How about a ton of eggs without a ton of lag?
