In Minecraft, there is a spawn egg called Skeleton Spawn Egg that is light gray with dark gray spots.
This spawn egg is an item that can not be crafted in the game. It is only available in Creative mode (not Survival mode) through the Creative Inventory menu. When you use this spawn egg, it will instantly spawn a skeleton.
