Dragon Egg
minecraft:dragon_eggThe Dragon Egg is a rare decorative block generated exactly once per world, appearing atop the exit portal after the Ender Dragon is defeated. Attacking it teleports it to a nearby location, so players must use tricks like pistons or falling to actually collect it.
FAQ
How do you get the Dragon Egg?
It spawns automatically atop the exit portal the first time the Ender Dragon is defeated in a world.
Why does the Dragon Egg keep teleporting?
Attacking it in survival mode causes it to teleport to a nearby air block, up to seven blocks vertically or fifteen blocks horizontally away, similar to an Enderman.
How do you actually pick up the Dragon Egg?
Common methods include pushing it with a piston so it drops as an item, letting it fall onto a non-full block like a torch or slab, or destroying it with an explosion.
What is the Dragon Egg used for?
It has no crafting recipe or functional use beyond decoration — it emits a faint light level of 1 and serves as a trophy proving the Ender Dragon was defeated.
