About this Mod
Description
Sniffer Reimagined is a mod that aims to make the Sniffer more interesting. It does this by adding more items Sniffers can find, including new farming, fishing, and crafting items. Additionally, four Sniffer variants have been added to the game, all obtainable by hatching a Sniffer Egg in specific biomes. Try to collect them all in your world!
Additional Sniffer Drops

Sniffers can now dig up:
- Red & Brown Mushrooms
- Iron Root
- Worm
Iron Root
The Iron Root is a new item that can be smelted into an Iron Ingot using a furnace or blast furnace. This allows for Sniffers to be used to make simple iron farms.
Worm
Worms are a new addition that have many uses. They can be fed to certain mobs, including Sniffers, Chickens, Frogs, Turtles, and Axolotls. Worms can also be used in Composters to create bone meal.
Farming

There is a 40% chance that right-clicking a worm on farmland will convert it into Enriched Farmland. Enriched Farmland grows your crops faster than traditional farmland, making your farms more productive.
Fishing

You can pick up the worm in your inventory and left-click on a fishing rod to attach it as bait. Doing this makes fishing much faster. By default, worms reduce the time to catch a fish by 15 seconds. This also stacks with enchantments such as Lure.
Nether Sniffer Drops

Sniffer Reimagined also introduces two Nether variants to Sniffers. These variants are the Crimson & Warped Sniffer. Sniffers hatched in the Nether can dig up:
- Crimson & Warped Mushrooms
- Nether Wart
- Gold Root
- Ghast Tear
- Blaze Rod
- Skeleton Skull Fragments
Gold Root
The Gold Root is a new item that can be smelted into a Gold Ingot using a furnace or blast furnace. This allows you to use Nether Sniffers to make simple gold farms.
Skeleton Skull Fragments
The Skeleton Skull Fragment and Wither Skeleton Skull Fragment are new items found by Sniffers hatched in the Nether. Using nine of these fragments in a crafting grid can craft a skull of its respective type. This offers an alternative to farming skulls and introduces a viable method for peaceful mode players.
Other Variants
In total, there are 5 Sniffer Variants. These variants are:
- Default
- Cherry
- Cold
- Warped
- Crimson
Cherry Sniffer

The Cherry Sniffer can be obtained by hatching a Sniffer Egg in a Cherry Grove.
Cold Sniffer

The Cold Sniffer can be obtained by hatching a Sniffer Egg in a snowy or icy biome.
Warped Sniffer

The Warped Sniffer can be obtained by hatching a Sniffer Egg in a Warped Forest.
Crimson Sniffer
The Crimson Sniffer can be obtained by hatching a Sniffer Egg anywhere in the Nether (outside of a Warped Forest).
Additional Tweaks
- Wandering Traders can now sell Sniffer Eggs
- Sniffers no longer have an eight-minute cooldown for sniffing items
- Sniffers now can dig up loot in places they've already searched
