Nearly forgot the idea when caught up in THIS, but I managed to get my brain to a previous restore point.
Anyway, golden eggs are simply a rare item dropped by chickens instead of the normal egg. I have not thought of a special attribute for this item other than what is in the poll, so feel free to suggest anything you think would be appropriate for it. The golden egg may also be craftable, but that's also up for debate.
Huh, seems like a cool idea. I think it should spawn a dozen baby chicks. And it should be crafted with ingots. Nuggets is to overpowered, and blocks is just stupid.
Hm, can't believe I didn't think of this myself! Seems so fitting to Minecraft!
Some ideas:
- It could give healing properties when eaten like a golden apple
- Could be used as a potion making ingredient
- Very rare drop from chickens
- Craft-able by surrounding an egg with 8 gold nuggets
- When thrown, could hatch a golden chicken that has some special properties?
And although you aren't giving much structure and support to the idea at the moment, it looks like you're gathering opinions and ideas from everyone else.

Just had the idea when spamming hatching eggs and accidentally eating a golden apple.
Some ideas:
- It could give healing properties when eaten like a golden apple
There's a poll for that.
- Could be used as a potion making ingredient
What potion?
- Very rare drop from chickens
Already suggested
- Craft-able by surrounding an egg with 8 gold nuggets
There's a poll for that.
- When thrown, could hatch a golden chicken that has some special properties?
IDK, seems a bit too much. But then again, that's for the community to decide.

Yes, that's exactly what I am doing. I don't like making solid suggestions (unless they are really good solid ones), but rather make basic ones on which the community helps improve.
To the above:
I voted on the poll, and the options aren't exactly what I'm talking about.
The poll does not specify exactly how the egg is crafted, so i figured I should do that.
I'm not saying it should be a splash version of the golden apple, I'm saying it could be eaten for healing properties, or it could be used as a potion ingredient. A potion that makes you jump higher for a limited amount of time? I know this is already used in the Beacon Block, but that has a limited range.
A dozen baby chickens I think is a bit overpowered. Maybe less.
The lightning strike idea is cool, and different, but I don't see how an egg would make that happen. Plus it could be extremely overpowered for PvP battles and such. I do like the concept of being able to control where it strikes though, so a Zombiepigman could be kept as a pet or something.
No, i'm not saying the golden egg should have all of the aforementioned suggestions, I'm saying maybe 1 or 2. Those are just things that come to mind when I think of a golden egg.

I like the lightning idea. Adds to Minecraft combat.
Yes, didn't think of it like that!
I just thought of the lightning idea to fill in a few blanks for vanilla that I could previously only do with the 'single player commands' mod (which is one of the few mods I, as a vanilla enthusiast, would not mind using).
How about it's a rare drop from a chicken (Which would most likley spawn the idea that it's a "The Goose that laid Golden Eggs" reference). Any how, how about you can brew it into a universal potion, which gives you a random potion effect?
And what about that if it's thrown, it has a better chance of giving you a chicken than a normal egg.
I think there is conflict on the amount of how many chickens should spawn when thrown. Even though the golden egg is rare, I think 12 chickens is a small bit overpowered. I also think a greater chance that a chicken will hatch is under powered. I think a good in-between would be 2 chickens for sure hatch. It's like an insta-farm!
