Beginning in version 1.7, dodos have a hunger bar that steadily decreases. Laying an egg will sharply reduce a dodo's hunger bar. It is restored a large amount when the dodo eats an apple, either by moving over one that is loose on the ground, passing a Feeder Chest that contains an apple, or having a blockhead feed them one. A tamed dodo's hunger bar may be viewed by tapping on it and selecting the button with its name, but will also be visible over a tamed dodo that is sufficiently hungry. | Beginning in version 1.7, dodos have a hunger bar that steadily decreases.

If a dodo's hunger bar runs low enough, it will squawk at least three times before dying. | |||

Introduced in version 1.7, dodos are tamed by feeding them apples; both baby and adult dodos may be tamed, although they will tend to be grown before becoming tamed. A dodo will only accept being fed when its hunger bar has reduced (which is not visible for untamed dodos). Once tamed, a dodo will be assigned a random name that will appear over it. It can then be tapped on to show a menu with the type of dodo breed and three buttons: Set Free, Ride, and the dodo's name. | Introduced in version 1.7, dodos are tamed by feeding them three apples; both baby and adult dodos may be tamed, although they will tend to be grown before becoming fully tamed.

It can then be tapped on to show a menu with the type of dodo breed and three buttons: Set Free, Ride, and the dodo's name. | ||
Tapping "Set Free" will make the dodo no longer tamed, prompting it to squawk and jump. It usually can be re-tamed by feeding it at least once. | Tapping "Set Free" will make the dodo no longer tamed, prompting it to squawk and jump. It usually can be re-tamed by feeding it at least once. | ||

A dodo is not a hardy creature, usually falling within a few hits from a particular weapon or tool. Whether dying on its own or killed, a dying dodo makes a distinctive "squawk" sound and drops [[items]].

Added in version 1.7, dodos can develop new breeds through the eggs they lay. The breed hatched will depend on the egg used. Breeds are identifiable by the color and pattern of their undersides and backsides. A normal dodo egg will hatch a basic dodo. A resource egg will hatch a dodo breed of that resource. The breeds include: | Added in version 1.7, dodos can develop new breeds through the eggs they lay. The breed hatched will depend on the egg used.
