Trivia

• Chicken Jockeys are the second 'jockey' mobs that were added to Minecraft, after Spider Jockey.
• Chicken Jockeys will not lay Eggs.
• Chicken Jockeys will not take damage nor die from falling because Chickens don't take fall damage.
• The Chicken Jockey will remain intact while riding a Boat.
  • However, if the Chicken Jockey enters water without a Boat, the Baby Zombie will jump off.
  • Killing the Baby Zombie will result in a passive Chicken, since its Baby Zombie rider was the only hostile portion.
  • Killing the Chicken, on the other hand, will leave the hostile Baby Zombie.
• When the difficulty is set on Peaceful, the Baby Zombie will de-spawn, but the Chicken will stay.
