About this Mod
More Shearable Mobs
Shears suck! Maybe I can fix that
More Shearable Mobs lets you shear more than just sheep. With this mod, you can shear cows, chickens, pigs, and even sheep for resources AND meat! No more killing your hard-earned flock.
Simply shear once to obtain a mob's material, then shear again to obtain their meat.
Features:
- Shear Cows for leather and beef
- Shear Chickens for feathers and chicken
- Shear Pigs for porkchops
- Shear Sheep for mutton in addition to their wool
Each animal has fully custom-modeled skins for their sheared and butchered states, giving clear visual feedback as you harvest resources.
After being sheared or butchered, the animal will eventually regenerate its meat and resources. How humane!
Note that mob drops have also been modified such that killing a sheared animal will only drop meat. As well, killing a butchered animal will drop bones.
Compatible with most vanilla-styled modpacks (probably). Requires Fabric.
Enjoy!
Also if you run into any bugs please let me know! You can subit issues on the mod's repository page on GitHub (click the View Source button ;)
