Right-clicking a mob with the same spawn egg will usually make a baby of that type if the mob got a baby stage, (so no babies at creepers, endermen, etc)
but then i tried it with zombies
WHAT I EXPECTED TO HAPPEN: a baby zombie would spawn under the zombie since baby zombies exist
WHAT HAPPENED: Nothing 😞

But right-clicking other mobs with their spawn egg spawns babies too! You can even spawn baby villagers even if you cant force them to breed!
P.S. it isn't working at zombie-pigmen too! (yes, they got a baby stage what cant be viewed without external editors)
Which mobs are you creating as babies with eggs? Ocelots, wolves and other animals? Or are you getting baby skeletons, creepers, pigmen etc as well?
You can create babies by right-clicking a mob what got a baby stage with its spawn egg, so it wont work with creepers, ghasts, skeletons but it works with ocelots, wolves, cows, sheeps, chickens, villagers, etc
what I'm talking about is that zombies and zombie pigmen got a baby stage (even if you can't find baby zombie pigmen naturally)
and i liked to say you can't spawn their baby stages even if this 2 mobs got babies!

For the record, I don't believe breeding mechanics should be an argument for the usage of spawn eggs. These items are used in creative mode, and breeding is a survival mode mechanic. To connect these two together, why do these items then even exist.
In case anyone's interested in my reasoning: https://www.reddit.com/r/Mojira/comments/d5onh3/the_case_for_reopening_mc2871/
I'm assuming this is because zombies can't breed.
