Click for Hot Chicks
Click for Hot Chicks is a really nice mod with a really awful name. Despite the eyebrow-raising title, this add-on delivers one of the most comprehensive livestock and farming overhauls available for Minecraft. If you have ever wanted deeper animal husbandry, selective breeding, and a reason to actually care about your barnyard, this mod is worth your attention.
What Does Click for Hot Chicks Add to Minecraft?
At its core, Click for Hot Chicks expands the farming experience far beyond vanilla mechanics. You can selectively breed wild animals to produce better livestock, discover new crops to feed yourself and your animals, and craft fun new food and farm items. The mod introduces a tameness system, stat-based breeding, and biome-dependent domestic breeds that make every farming decision matter.
Wild Animals and Taming
Wild versions of several animals spawn naturally across different biomes. Junglefowl appear in dark forests and lush forest biomes. Small herds of aurochs roam flat, arid biomes, and wild cottontails hop through grasslands and meadows. Each species has its own tameness threshold you must reach through careful breeding before you can obtain domestic breeds.
- Junglefowl require 85% tameness to produce domestic chickens
- Aurochs need 75% tameness to yield domestic cow breeds
- Cottontails demand 85% tameness and a few carrots as incentive
Livestock Care and Feeding
Animals in Click for Hot Chicks need to eat and drink to stay happy. Neglected livestock will not breed, may run away from you, or could even turn aggressive. Craft troughs, food crocks, and water bottles to keep food and water available, and your animals will help themselves. This adds a layer of responsibility that vanilla Minecraft farming simply does not provide.
Breeding Stats and Biome Adaptations
When you breed livestock, the domestic breed you receive depends on the biome you are in. Different biomes produce differently adapted breeds with unique base stats. These stats determine meat and hide drops, milk yield, egg production, and more depending on the species. Stats generally average between the parents with a chance for random mutation, so dedicated breeders can chase rare outcomes over many generations.
Crops and Fruit Trees
Click for Hot Chicks introduces new crops that spawn uncommonly in the wild, while others you may need to find a Farmer to trade with. You can plant and grow these crops normally on farmland, as bushes, or they may require a trellis block. Certain fruit trees also spawn in select biomes. Collect fruit from their fruiting leaves to craft into seeds for planting your own trees, or combine compatible seeds to create a hybrid fruit seed that does not generate naturally.
Supported Versions and Loaders
The first official release of Click for Hot Chicks is set for Forge 1.16.5. Once that release is available, the team plans to work on Forge ports to 1.18 and 1.19. Fabric support is yet to be determined, so players on Fabric should keep an eye on future announcements. For players who want a smoother setup, the foxygame.net launcher bundles Click for Hot Chicks directly into its add-on catalog, handling version matching and installation in a single click so you can start breeding livestock without touching a single config file.

Chickens, Cows, and Rabbits in Detail
Chicken Breeds
Release 1 includes the ameraucana, barred rock, leghorn, marans, olive egger, orpington, Rhode Island red, and silkie. Leghorns lay plenty of eggs, while Rhode Island reds offer better meat. You will need a nest or nest box for egg laying, and eggs must stay in the nest for a full Minecraft day to remain viable.
Cow Breeds
The cow roster features angus, brahma, brown swiss, Guernsey, hereford, highland, holstein, Jersey, lakenvelder, and longhorn. Cows have a strong stat divide between milk and meat production, so choose breeds that match your goals.
Rabbit Breeds
Rabbit breeds include the American chinchilla, California, Dutch, Flemish, New Zealand, and rex. Rabbits convert low-tier grain efficiently and have a unique litter size stat. Rabbit meat works as a substitute for chicken in recipes, making them an excellent choice for compact farms.
