There is another video in this series that deals with that specific myth.

There is no difference. The game code does not make a distinction between either of those.

Yes, there is. A 1 in 8 chance of getting anything and a 1 in 32 chance of getting 4. 8 * 32 = 256 so there is indeed 1 in 256 chance of getting 4 chickens from one egg!

That’s the rumor, and I don’t believe it. I haven’t been able to confirm it, and neither has anyone else. If you know what these “Correct conditions” are, I’d like to hear them. In any event, I’d like to see it tested and I’d like to know what the code says.

Myth? The wiki states there is a mismatch between where a spawner displays the flame animation and the actual spawning radius – a two block vertical offset, IIRC.
Valid (still) or no?

He has done tests on that and looked in the code and it isnt any different. Hope I helped :)

They take damage, which is why they can be agro’ed by it. However the damage value they take is 0, so they don’t take any physical damage.

They do not. However in 1.4 the Witch is able to use potions to regenerate health. Both the Wither and the Enderdragon can both also regenerate – but they aren’t exactly regular mobs :)
