My server is not spawning mob variants. I tried using eggs, going into unloaded chunks, going to different warm and cold biomes - it always spawns in normal cows, pigs, and chickens. We do have the new plants, grass, leaves and camels are spawning in as well.
The world on my server is vanilla and is about 10 months old.

Update: Seems to be that auto-update seems to have been disabled, I’m seeing them now after updating through the launcher.
I am having the same issue. the cows work, the pigs work. the chickens are not.
-The spawn egg has not changed
-I tried using the unchanged spawn egg in temperate, warm and cold biomes with no luck only white chickens. the cows and pigs do.
-the brown and blue eggs are there but using them in any biome results in white chickens.
After looking for others who had similar issues they said a mod/resource/behavior pack was causing the issue for them. I’m completely vanilla.
No one can use resource packs in our world. None of us on the server see the variants, even around the jungle at spawn - that’s where we originally started looking for them.
One issue that has come up in the past with updates is server owners not updating all of the necessary files. If you only replaced the executable file and did not also copy all of the updated data files and assets, it might cause an issue like this. Have you tried fully reinstalling/re-copying all of the server files? See for example BDS-6230
I reset my config files for my server and that solved the issue. We have variants spawning now. Thanks!
Thanks for letting us know. Closing the ticket as a duplicate of BDS-6230.
Confirming this also is happening to me. I created a new world today and encountered the same issue.
