Overview
Dragon Egg is an End block in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4. It has no crafting recipe — you collect it by mining it where it generates. Hardness 3 puts it in the middle of the pack for mining speed.
It drops as the same block you mined. It gives off a dim light level 1, enough to see by but not to stop mobs spawning. Because it is transparent it does not block light.
A full stack holds 64. It is not used in any crafting recipe.
