Subsequent to the overhaul, this mod completely removes everything from before and starts from scratch. This mod adds little creatures to your world that likely will not exceed the size of a cow! These little mobs occasionally have cool little features such as dying snails!

GIF of Mice Variants

Mice are a passive mob that spawn in many different biomes. The white variant of the mouse is native to cold biomes. They can be bred with pumpkin seeds, wheat seeds, torchflower seeds, melon seeds, or beetroot seeds.

GIF of Lizard Variants

Lizards are a passive mob that spawn in a few different biomes. The brown ones are the most common and can be found in lots of biomes. The snow lizard is only located in some cold biomes and the jungle lizard is only found in jungle biomes. They can be bred with rotten flesh.

Image of Snail

Snails are slow passive mobs that spawn in swamps and mangroves. They can be bred with leaves of any kind. They drop shells and slimeballs.

GIF of Dyed Snails

You can dye snails! Just simply right click any snail with a dye in hand and you'll get a snail of the desired color! These snails drop a shell of their respective color.

GIF of Kiwis

Kiwis are rare small passive mobs found in the jungle that drop kiwi feathers when killed and can be tamed. If a kiwi is named fruit, it will give this new skin, same goes for naming it skittles.
