  • spawning mobs in creative builds
  • writing summon and give commands for mob eggs
  • checking which mobs have eggs and which bosses do not
Can you get spawn eggs in survival mode?

No. Spawn eggs are creative-mode and command items. The closest survival mechanics are breeding animals and building around monster spawners; the eggs themselves never appear in survival inventories.

How do you use a spawn egg in commands?

Give one with /give using its ID, such as minecraft:bee_spawn_egg, then use it on a block to spawn the mob. For precise control in maps, /summon with the entity ID and data components is the better tool.

Do all mobs have spawn eggs?

Almost all regular mobs do. Bosses like the Ender Dragon and Wither have creative-only eggs, while a few entities have no egg at all. This catalog lists every egg that exists in current Java Edition.

How many spawn eggs are in this catalog?

How to Use Minecraft Spawn Egg IDs

Spawn eggs work in creative mode; for survival-style summoning use the /summon command with the entity ID shown on our entity IDs page instead.

  1. Search the category by name or the modern minecraft:... ID.
  2. Open the matching item page to check its current ID and any reviewed historical-ID note.
  3. Copy the item ID or customize its /give command for your player and quantity.

Notable Spawn Eggs in This Category

Nearly every mob has an egg, including villagers, axolotls, and the Warden, while boss mobs like the Ender Dragon and Wither have eggs that only work in creative. Dispensers can fire spawn eggs, which powers creative-mode mob machines.
