Possible relation to: MC-119

Maybe.

Basically my chicken farm has a tower floating in air in middle so I can something to throw eggs at. Once a while a chicken spawns mostly inside it and dies. Easy to do, just be creative and throw few of em into wall.

This also happens to spiders when you use a spider egg on a wall in creative mode. Possibly related?
