Helping Herds - Enhancements for Farm Animals

This mod makes your Minecraft farm more useful and interesting by adding various improvements for animals and new mechanics.

What's New for Players:

Enhanced Llamas

All llamas now have maximum chest storage capacity. Their spit applies a slowing effect to enemies and deals extra damage to blazes. If a llama has active potion effects, these effects are transferred to spit targets. Carpets on llamas' backs now boost their defense. Tamed llamas on leads protect you when you take damage or attack enemies.

Chicken Improvements

Chicken now leave feathers more frequently - both when taking damage and simply while walking around the area.

Improved Drops

Farm animals always drop something when killed. If the standard mechanics would result in no drops, you're guaranteed to receive at least a non-meat item: leather, feathers, or rabbit hide. This reduces the need to senselessly kill many animals.

New Tempting Items

Llamas can now be tempted with hay, while horses will follow carrots and apples.

New Block - Scattered Hay

Create this decorative block using 5 wheat in an X shape. Perfect for decorating pens and stables.

New Effects and Mechanics

The "Slobbered" effect slows enemies and temporarily protects them from catching fire. You can now summon a wandering trader with two llama guards or add new llamas to an existing trader.
