Incubation

by Team Abnormals

Incubation brings egg-themed content to Forge and NeoForge worlds, with nests that steer where chickens lay and crates for egg storage.

ForgeNeoForgeClient and serverCustom license1.16.1 – 1.21.1

What it does

Chickens are steered toward a Twig Nest or a Hay Nest to lay their eggs, rather than dropping them wherever they happen to be. Crates of Chicken Eggs and Turtle Eggs serve as decorative storage blocks for each egg type. Fried and scrambled eggs are added as food items, and two new paintings join the existing set.

Blueprint is required and must be installed beside Incubation on both sides. Autumnity and Environmental are optional and are not needed for the core features. Builds cover 1.16.1, 1.18.2, 1.19.2, 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, with the Forge file targeting 1.20.1 and the NeoForge file targeting 1.21.1.

Installation covers the server and each player's game. The code is under a custom license and the mod is not open source, though public links for source, issues and the wiki are available. Vanilla Backport X Incubation Compat and Nest Egg both require Incubation.

Key features

  1. Twig and Hay Nests

    Chickens prefer these nests over other spots, so eggs gather in one place for collection.

  2. Chicken and Turtle Egg crates

    Decorative storage blocks hold a stack of each egg type and double as display pieces.

  3. Fried and scrambled eggs

    Two cooked egg dishes are added as food items for players to craft and eat.

  4. New paintings

    Two paintings are added to the art set that can be placed on walls.
