Minecraft Sniffer Egg PNG

The Sniffer Egg exactly as it looks in the Minecraft 26.3 inventory, as a transparent PNG. It is the render of the item itself, not a loose texture: what you see in your hand and in chests. In the creative inventory it sits in the “Natural” tab.

Sizes and quality

The Sniffer Egg render is 128 × 128 pixels, the size the game draws the item at in the inventory. It scales up by whole numbers to 1024 px with no interpolation, so the edges stay sharp.

Minecraft sniffer egg: where to find it and how it hatches

The sniffer egg is how you bring back the sniffer, the ancient mob that digs up seeds. The first one comes from archaeology: brush the suspicious sand in warm ocean ruins until it turns up.

Once placed, the egg cracks over time and hatches after cracking twice, giving you a baby. The timing depends on what is underneath: 10 minutes on a moss block and 20 on anything else, pale moss included. So if you want to speed things up, putting moss under it is worth it.

It is easier to handle than turtle eggs. It breaks by hand or with any tool and always drops, no Silk Touch needed. It needs no supporting block, gravity does not affect it, and pistons can push and pull it.

Once you have two adult sniffers, breed them with torchflower seeds for more eggs. Those eggs drop as items, like chicken eggs, rather than being placed on the ground like turtle eggs or frogspawn. In Java they do not rely on random ticks either, so changing that game rule will not speed them up.
