Golden Egg

Description

Golden Eggs can be found inside of Bean Pods, grown from Magic Beans. When thrown, a Chicken with a Golden Wattle will hatch. Drop gold ore next to the Golden Chicken and it will pick the ore up, chew it (with eating particles), and drop 3 gold ingots. It follows players holding a valid input item. Alongside that, it can also be configured to lay golden ingots instead of eggs.

CraftTweaker

Golden Chicken conversion recipes can be changed with CraftTweaker. The default recipe is oreGold -> 3 gold ingots, taking 30-60 seconds to chew.

import mods.randomthings.GoldenChicken;

// Replace the default gold ore recipe with native gold clusters -> 8 ingots, chewed in 5 seconds
GoldenChicken.removeAll();
GoldenChicken.addRecipe(<ore:clusterGold>, <minecraft:gold_ingot> * 8, 100, 100);

// Add another recipe, using the default 30-60 second chew time
GoldenChicken.addRecipe(<minecraft:gold_nugget> * 1, <minecraft:gold_ingot>);

// Fixed chew time (in ticks)
GoldenChicken.addRecipe(<ore:oreGold>, <minecraft:gold_ingot> * 3, 400);

// Remove recipes whose input matches
GoldenChicken.removeRecipe(<ore:oreGold>);

addRecipe arguments: input, output, optional min digest ticks, optional max digest ticks. If only one time is given, min and max are the same. Output count comes from the stack size.
