Greatest Villager Spawn Egg Recipe
by char1274
Greatest Villager Spawn Egg Recipe makes crafting a villager spawn egg deliberately tedious, requiring many items before a single egg can be made.
What it does
The author built the mod as a joke for a sky-base survival server, where villagers had to be hauled around by hand. Crafting a villager spawn egg now takes a long chain of intermediate items, so a player must gather and combine several things before the egg can be assembled at all. The recipe change is the only function, and nothing else in the game is altered.
The mod was made with MCreator and runs on Forge and NeoForge for Minecraft 1.20.1 and 1.21.1. It needs both the server and every player to have it installed, since the recipe is part of the shared crafting data. Files were first published on 2026-06-07 and last updated on 2026-07-01. The author describes the project as an experiment and not a balanced addition, and it is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Tedious egg recipe
The villager spawn egg recipe requires many crafted items before the egg can be made, replacing the vanilla shortcut.
Long crafting chain
Players must craft several intermediate items first, so reaching the egg takes repeated work at the crafting table.
Single recipe change
Only the villager spawn egg recipe is changed; other items, mobs and mechanics keep their vanilla behavior.
Built with MCreator
The mod was generated with MCreator, which produced the recipe files used by both loaders.

What the author says
It adds an incredibly tedious crafting recipe for villager spawn eggs.
