Currently you can only get monster spawn eggs by creative, but I would love to get these in survival. I think the only fair way to do this is to make an item that is hard to make, diamonds, obsidian, etc. Then you put a chicken egg in this item/machine, and some kind of fuel. Then when a monster walks over it, it becomes a monster egg, and the creature disappears. My main concern with this is in smp, but the monsters are dangerous to all. The eggs don't work like a Pokemon, once released monsters have no side. Also the fuel should be moderately expensive too. Just an idea, I would love others opinions on this too.
Those eggs are really for testing, and because getting a villager to go inside your contraption, when you need it, is a real hard task to do without those eggs. But in SSP/M it would really not make much sense to be able to spawn mobs at your will. Just my opinion. But I certainly don't see mojang adding this into vanilla.
Sorry, no support.
Well put sir! Yeah, It would serve no purpose, then to get people who have too much time on their hands to say "SHPAWN EGGSH!!"
I actually kind of like this idea. There are actually a few uses for this. One is that it could be used in traps. And it was already mentioned that villagers could often be useful, some of these contraptions are useful in vanilla too.
